Also, regarding the example, you're going to have to ask a way simpler question that that if you expect to get an answer [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] For example, I could tell you what the optimal distribution of betting and giving up to betting and re-raising as a re-bluff would be, but there are a million directions a hand can head in (and they compound) so you really do have to just take it in small bites.

yeah, exactly my problem. So how do you approach this flop then? do you assume a flop action (cc seems reasonable) and solve for different turn+river combos? Obviously opponents' strategies are fluid IRL, but do you use a generic static strategy and try to find optimal line vs. that strat?

I ask because lately I've been working on this stuff a lot and it seems like it takes 10 man-hours just to code up the strategies and run a simulation whose results are just "meh". And that's when I have the hero c/c'ing the flop. If I wanna throw in different flop actions (like 30% c/r or something) the coding blows up to the point where I wanna just call it quits.

hehe, sorry for ranting in your thread--it really has been an excellent well and we are all lucky that you decided to return to it weeks after it was supposed to end.
