Coordinating your ranges
In "The Math of Poker" there's a few chapters devoted to value betting and protecting those value bets with bluffs.
The authors provided a "range" chart, showing an optimal frequency between value bets/raises and bluff bets/raises for their toy game examples. For example: say we're playing with an regular opponent we know to be a typical, strong TAG. His perception of us is the same. He raises us on the button. We 3 bet him in the SB with AJ. He calls. For argument's sake we have X-Ray vision and see that he has 55. The flop comes: Q78. We bet, he calls. Turn pairs the board. We bet again and he calls. We know that he knows that his hand plays well against our range. The river is Ten. This is where it gets interesting. If we bet, can he call? The common perception is that a TAG will hardly bet a hand in this spot that 55 beats. Oink often talks about establishing an unbluffable image. However, these's little discussion of establishing a bluffer's image. That said, I'd like to ask the vets how you employ this concept to protect your value betting/raising hands? |
