cannot believe most of that stuff will be in print on a non-internet forum form of media hopefully, this book isn't that popular |

Re: New Tysen Streib Book: Kill Everyone
Two things:
A. Sorry Tysen, but that title qualifies for most terrible book title ever and I hope it wasn't designed to appeal to a certain target group of players (uneducated macho type) B. What I never understood about game theory in Hold'em was that a correct calling frequency also means that you have to have a bluffcatcher a certain amount of times. In contrast to draw poker where most examples for game theory come from, it's tough to make a hand in Hold'em, even a bluffcatcher, and very often the opponent is bluffing with the best hand. Let's say your math tells you that you are required to call in x% of the cases, but your mix of hands has you fold most small pairs on the flop and take a lot of busted draws to the river, so in many cases you don't even have a hand to call with. Are you adressing such things in the book? The obvious solution would be to either take more low pairs or less draws to the river. In each case though, it would mean making a -EV play on the respective hand. Well, I guess that is what ballancing is all about after all... |
