@DominikNitsche All good, best of luck

@Chillolini Don't think this is something i want to develop in the near future. Have a couple bugs to fix and think other features/algorithm improvements have higher value.

Made a simplified beta available. Play badugi and 27 SD against my bot. beta.drawsolver.com/practice/badug…

@sheetspwns @TheGrinder44 Not how ICM works, but maybe I am just getting baited

One of those cool spots where the chipleaders chip count equity excedes first place money. Also, if @TheGrinder44 wins a few more pots he could even have ICM equity greater than first place money also. In some of those situations the 2nd-3rd-4th place shortstacks could profit by offering him first place money in a deal:) @BeL0WaB0Ve #LFG

@MariaHo If Mizrachi makes the final table it would the the second time he FTs main AND wins the PPC in the same year

With 24 players left, here are a few good storylines left in the #WSOP Main Event on day 8 (in order of chip count): -Chip leader Kenny Hallaert who as a TD/player has given a lot to the community helping to bridge the gap between players and operators. Final tabled the main in 2016. -Adam Hendrix, good personality, has always been pleasant to play with at the tables. -Tony Gregg, old school end boss is back with a deep run! -Leo Margets, last woman left in the field, representing!!! -Michael Mizrachi, so much fun to watch, won his fourth PPC title this summer, would be sick if he FT’ed the main! Would love to hear the backstory of anybody I missed/am unfamiliar with that you think would be a good addition to this list that is still left in the main! You can watch all the action live on @PokerGO today starting at 4pm ET/1pm PT.

@scott_seiver And, for what its worth, if I add tiny amounts of random fds to OOPs range the solver bets them all some amount of the time

@scott_seiver Tried giving the players some ranges (which in itself is not easy in such a weird spot), and solved them in Monker. In the few examples I tried, if OOP was betting at all (only uses tiny sizes) JTdd is in there a decent amount. Also, checked to IP also starts betting them non-0%

One of the most disgusting poker hands I’ve ever seen. Not even easy to fully understand how insane betting Into a dry side pot with jack high is for the setup for bluffs later to then set yourself up to bet call stacks with jack high. My heart goes out to Bruno, one of if not the legit best players in the field, and one of if not the legit nicest players in the field. Absolutely sickening

@scott_seiver @_TheWhiteLion__ Honestly, this spot makes my head hurt. But it seems to me that you are describing a situation where the JT guy gets to bet lots of low pairs and ace highs (+nutted hands), and then it makes a lot of sense to me that a solver would put some other hand classes in there aswell.

@scott_seiver @_TheWhiteLion__ Mostly agree, this what the range mostly need to consist of. But I dont think the KK no blinds analogy fits very well here. You are describing a range that consists of both value and bluffs, and in the KK example we only have value. Would a solver bet 0% low fds here you think?

@GERPEZZZ @scott_seiver @_TheWhiteLion__ Now, because of the dry sidepot thing, the bluffs are probably mostly hands that can beat the allin player, so maybe not that many fds gets in there. But probably some. At the very least, playing this spot as if the KK no blinds analogy is fitting, cant be correct in theory.

@GERPEZZZ @scott_seiver @_TheWhiteLion__ If you were talking about the river. On the flop, if you only bet very strong hands, then your opponent must fold Qx-. But then it becomes pretty nice to bet (bluff) low pairs, or ace highs. And if you construct a range this way, then at least some draws should prob be included.

@scott_seiver @_TheWhiteLion__ If this is the same as raising KK with no blinds, should you bet anything but the nuts on the river in a dry sidepot? It should be pretty easy to argue that this cant be the case in GTO. Same for the flop betting strat. That range cant ONLY consist of hands that are strong now.

@_TheWhiteLion__ You don’t understand what a dry side pot represents and that’s ok. Imagine raising kings in a poker game where there were no blinds.

@TobiasLeknes @SavagePoker @RealKidPoker Cant remember, something like JQTK92384756A Probably depends on the number of players on the table.

@SavagePoker @RealKidPoker @Chillolini has the order

Attention razz players: I received this message from a good friend and a mixed game player. Hello Matt! Miss seeing you! Asking once again if you could talk to the powers that be to change the bring-in to the low card in RAZZ. It’s such an unfair punishment unlike ANY other game. The only reasoning I’ve ever heard to defend this is: 1. It’s always been this way. * It’s always been this way is no reason to keep it. In Stud it was ALWAYS an open pair can double bet UNTIL they CHANGED it. And . . . 2. It creates more action. * More action?! Don’t understand this logic at all. It KILLS action. At least in a tournament. You want action? Have the low card bring it in. This rule of high card bringing it in can be your tournament life. So it ends on bad luck and not skill. PLEASE help change this. I feel it’s so wrong on so many levels. Thank you and hope you have a great summer!!! ♥️ I need you thoughts @audavidb @RealKidPoker @barrygreenstein @markgregorich @shaundeeb @jeanriders

@gordoMG @roemischers I would argue that the reason you are not doing this is not because of how difficult it is to play your own range, but because it would need to entail the belief that the opener plays such a bad strategy vs 3bets that you can just 3bet every D1 (e.g. KQ855) vs them profitably.

@roemischers If you start bluffing with zero equity hands like 5588J in d1 situations, your range winds up being pretty difficult to navigate.

Been a while since a random hand of poker I wasn’t involved in has elicited a reaction from me, but tip of the hat to @TexasMike2014 on that NL2 hand. Unreal call… that was a beauty in any situation, much less 3handed in the first ever mixed 100k tourney.

You roll a fair 6-sided die until you get 6. What is the expected number of rolls (including the roll giving 6) conditioned on the event that all rolls gave even numbers? (via Elchanan Mossel)

@tonkaaaap You are counting hypers, but not badugis??? Pfffft

Goodluck to those on new adventures in 2025. 2024 was very much a success, I now have 2 trophies. In 2025 I will earn at least 2 more!

@AllenKessler @TobiasLeknes Make it the new industry standard please. At the very least early enough so that you can go directly from a standard hotel breakfast buffet

Would you ever be seated actively playing in a poker tournament at 830am?

@AllenKessler @DHOTDA

Got this message from a friend. Are resort fees suddenly illegal? "When I checked out of the JW Marriott , I looked at the bill and noticing resort fees of $ 52, I said why are you charging resort fees? It's illegal. Looking dumbfounded the front desk guy googled it and read about the recent FTC ruling and apologized and credited me the 52. He then did the same with my brothers and mom's rooms. Never hurts to ask/try."

@New_Dave_ Niceee! Can you add field sizes to your spread sheet? Both when you won, and maybe a rough guess for expected average field sizes

As always, spreadsheet docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

Day 5 of the Mixed Games Challenge on @PokerStars and we got our 4th win! Pretty good start (I was down like $70-$80 mind you lets ignore that bit)

@New_Dave_ @PokerStars The last ones you should probably expect to be very sticky, since those are probably big fields, and will tend to be in your weaker games.

@New_Dave_ @PokerStars If these were 33 100entrant fields, then an average player will have covered like 65% of them I think after one hundred days of playing (if you play every single one each day, which I suspect you wont). Obv you are better than an average player so maybe you would be at 70-80%.

I have started a Mixed Games Challenge on @PokerStars where I attempt to win EVERY mixed game tourney of $16.50 and below on the daytime schedule (8:30am - 6pm). On Day 1, we got our first win! (33 left)
