Texas Holdem Tips Video Source & Information:
Through GTO and neural net exploration, three key lessons have emerged for big blind defense. I share each lesson with you so you can defend your BB properly, understand your 3-betting density, and know just how wide calling ranges get in this spot. Also, see how seemingly small changes to steal sizes impact defense, and when the overall defending frequency drops below 50%.

This seems very interesting. It makes me think about minumun frecquencies postflop
Where does this drop in density of 3bets at 5BB BTN raise come from? That seems weird. Is it just that at 3BB we have already constrained our range of non-paired hands so much that there isn't many that get dropped by a move to 5BB and at the same time we're cutting out many low pairs from our 3 bet range?
..or is it more an effect of "with a 5BB raise we're more likely to be all in before we even rach the river so our 3-bet range cannot contain anything that requires some improvement by then (which again would eliminate the low pairs because we're not getting the price to setmine)
Really enjoyed your 3 bet density concept. Would love to see a video on how this 3bet density changes as positions do.
Do you defend tighter the further out from the button the raiser is? What do these ranges look like? Thank you
And what changes if the SB decides to call the Button raise, regardless of size?
Great lesson.
Thank you so much for this. Finally understand what they mean by defend (in BB).
How bout 5-7x like live
I've been playing for years. Read many books. Won three small tournaments with 250 players. But this video is full Chinese to me. You're talking so fast. You're assuming we have massive theory assimilated. In all humility I wish I got everything you said but must admit I feel like quitting poker altogether right now.
Weird to see AQo as a pure call. I'm 3betting that almost 100%
