    I appreciate your dissection of this spot as well as the context provided. Great job as always demonstrating a rational dissection of an irrational situation. Most fail to see how often, particularly at depths greater than 300bb, these out of line situations present live. Win rates are what they are because the environment tends to be deep, impatient, spewy, and occasionally drunk. Obviously we didn't set out to disobey theory at all costs, but we did want to emulate a live "try hard" environment as best we could. Appreciate you making the effort to be a fair observer, of both, the good and bad elements of the product.

      Emulate a live "try hard" game in the real world... But these are a bunch of pro's and they are trying to use poker logic/strategy in their commentary. This is so lazy and FOS it's painful.

    I love this hand.. Clearly highlights the danger in shifting your strategy so far away from optimal.
    Buttons read that the flop donk and flop raise were light were accurate, but he failed to predict that his opponent would go one level further and figured he would cold call light. You can't just predict your opponents actions, you have to also predict their reactions!
    This is the clearest case I've seen of someone wanting to do something for emotional reasons, and justifying the irrational behaviour with shotty reasoning.

      After watching Matt with Joey, and Doug Polk i had and have a deep level of respect. However watching this video i feel like it is a dishonest representation of how people really play.
      I do how ever acknowledge that in some games i have watched people will do silly things.
      In the games i watch and play people are really not thinking this deep.
      I've never played high stakes cash. And if they do think this high i don't think i want too lol.

    Thank you for analyzing this S4Y video, I watched their "Poker Out Loud" vids and was disappointed. Their concept is a great idea and could be very valuable but as a viewer looking to learn the execution doesn't make sense when some of their players take these weird lines, personally I found myself watching these and not finding much value. I think the concept is potentially powerful but they need to replace some of these players. Its pretty easy to guess who 🙂. Thank you for your work @Finding Equilibrium your vids and insights are awesome.

    Interesting video! This series is to demonstrate the flow of changing dynamics at the table and exploitative plays which are largely over exaggerated as a teaching tool to create interesting spots that they can then break down. It's important to point out that this series isn't really a style of play they teach in their Solve For Why TV courses which is a lot more balanced, GTO oriented and has more solver work and analysis than I've seen on any other training site. I'd definitely recommend looking at their training videos for any intermediate to advanced player.

      @Richard-pv1vc 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@elon_mI think they're trying something different with this series which was a bit of an experiment. Theres lots of resources out there showing you how to respond in a balanced way to common spots you find yourself in. Theres not many that show how you can exploit player's tendancies and histories in a live setting, and how in these games theres a flow in how the last couple of hands then influences how they decide to play this hand (GTO would largely consider each hand in a vacuum). So for example they might open a little wider in a certain situation but since 1 series only has 1 orbit they'll open really wide to demonstrate how you can widen your range in these spots. You make a good point that its maybe not the most effective teaching tool if you start to emulate their play, but the most helpful thing in the series is to hear their commentaries on the kinds of factors they're taking into account when they make these adjustments. Also they do make mistakes which they will freely acknowledge. It is a really entertaining show though.

    Having listened to a lot of solveforwhy content, and to be fair, Berkey does say they are playing wider ranges because they are playing limited hands since they have to enunciate the action. He also says they are necessarily trying to create tough spots post flop as a teaching method. That said, I find that cash game players have (by default) much wider pre-flop ranges, and tend to deviate much more outside GTO, than MTT players. Finally, there is an "On Second Thought" podcast where they analyze the play and often recognize it as sub-standard and criticize it for what it is.

      Agree with the first bit. Not sure on the second. Poker has too much unknown information to sit back and confirm if he's poker's version of Carlsen. Certainly, he calls Nick's play here and does so again (against Nick in a 1,600bb pot) in a later series of Poker Out Loud. However, he does seem to make more readily identifiable mistakes than I expect Carlsen would in comparable contexts. But, again, it could just be variance making him look bad there.

    You also forget to mention the raise size isn't 2.5bb, but 5bb. Which makes the "Solver guys" play even worse

    • @FindingEquilibrium
      @FindingEquilibrium  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah, maybe I should have explicitly pointed it out, but I did mention he raised on the larger side. In theory his range should be tighter with a larger open, but I am guessing Berkey was also opening wider at that time as well so I decided not to mess with the solution and just used the standard GTO range. Of course none of these ranges will be accurate to what is actually played but I still think they are useful approximations for purposes of a general analysis.

    The fact that this was a setup experiment (controlled environment where players are involved in explaining their play and assuming these headphones mute other players from hearing) directly affects the explinations and results. When you’re playing poker in a lab you’re not really playing poker. Its too setup

    Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it and your other videos. However, I would rather see hands where players are playing at least somewhat reasonably. This whole hand is absurd, with players using bullshit fancy terms and reasoning to justify terrible plays. Bring back Llinus Love or Ike haxton, where we can study equilibrium strategies. This is not a effective way to study GTO.

      Finding Equilibrium yes, please do more Linus breakdowns. After all, as a student of the game I’d like to learn from the best, not from the 150th in the world for example.
      In particular, I’d love to see more hands of how Linus navigates tournaments spots since tournaments have varying stack sizes and the right play and ranges change given the stacks, positions, ICM, etc.

      It's an episode of Poker Out Loud where the players wear noise cancelling headphones and listen to music when it's not their action so that each player can explain in detail what they're thinking for their action. It's an attempt to better explain game flow considerations and how they affect play.
