Default Re: Whats in a Range

Foucault got at a lot of what I was getting at (in terms of my problem with the FTOP) and about what deception, and hand reading means.

My other point is how you create your own ranges. When you put somebody on a range its a static proposition. You are saying at this time there is a percentage chane of A, a percentage chance of B, and a percentage chance of C. When you are creating your own ranges you need to be thinking actively, not statically. You cant only think I have a set/flush draw how should I play it, you need to think I have a set/flush draw, how frequently should I bet/CR/checkcall with it in order to create ranges that deceive my opponent. Quite frequently then the answer to these questions is not you should to A, B or C, but rather you should do A X%, B Y% and C Z%, at least when you are playing against players who think about what you are holding.
