this article is fantastic. As a beginning player, I have been looking for exercises, examples, articles, etc on methods for putting opponents on hands. You, sir, should write a book. I will be your first purchaser. [/ QUOTE ] Thank you very much for the kind words. I wouldn't count on me writing a book anytime soon, though, as I have a LONG way to go myself.

I think the thought process was solid and explained very well.

Re: Possible Pooh-bah? - The Basics of Thinking in Terms of Ranges
Excellent post PBJ and it took me a while do realise exactly how important this is, especially in terms of thin river value bets (which I'm not sure the example is tbh). Good work.

Re: Possible Pooh-bah? - The Basics of Thinking in Terms of Ranges
ok, am i wrong to think that the river bet is too high?
if we put his calling range on 88, 99, T9, T8, JTo+...unless it's AT, KT, MAYBE QT he isn't calling a river bet of 75$. i think even a smaller bet to induce a call (we already know our hand is good, let's maximize the $$$$) will be > EV in the long run, because if villain DOES have a better hand but never CR bluffs, with 100bb stacks, u can't fold the river. a bet of 40$ on the river even may induce a call from a busted ace high flush draw...while still allowing us to fold to river raises.
