I have to say Saulo, the concept of adjusting strategy on earlier streets to funnel opponents into making mistakes on a future street is mind-blowing to me. I don't think I have seen it explored even on paid training sites. Great content Saulo.
My goal is to make the free content in this channel better than any paid training site. Seems like this video will help a bit! Thanks for the feedback mate
You'll be mind blown when you understand that preflop is a street too, and increased passivity allows you to play many more hands preflop. You'd be surprised how many hands you can open when the table is under 3 betting, many hands are only losing because they cannot get to the flop often enough to realize their equity in solver land.
Hi Saulo, do you usually study the adjustaments on single turn run out? Or we can ask pio to make adjustaments based on a different average frequency of betting turn? If yes, how we can do it?
should i bet my low showdownvalue hands on early streets for equity denial? for example 22 on K83r. if they dont bluff enough, why should i give them any freecards and let them hit their hand.
Exactly like mine is impossible, but you can buy pre-built H2N stats on the internet so that you don't have to go through the trouble of building them yourself. Take a look at H2N website, I think they have a store somewhere
Point 1 and point 3 on your summary kind of go against each other for someone who skipped through the video and just wanted the conclusion, bc how are you going to overcall with marginal hands if the point is to over fold vs this player type lol. I think you should’ve been a bit more specific and said overfold against them OTR. And overcall marginal hands in order to turn them into bluffs when checked into them. Other than that, perfect video!
Fala Saulo, no segundo exploit é quando no flop vai de check, check né, para aí sim explorarmos o range turn dele? Porque como o vilão tá jogando como caller, ele deveria betar os blefes turn. Como ele joga de check turn os blefes, a gente vai dar mais delay cbets do que deveria, é isso?
Ali eu dei o exemplo especifico de delay cbets so pra exemplificar, mas basicamente qualquer situação que um jogador passivo dá check fora de posição é uma boa oportunidade pra aumentar a agressão
The math is simply that what is bad (facing a turn bet) happens less often, which decreases our losses when calling flop, and what is good (facing a turn check) happens more often, which increases our winnings when calling flop. When we face a check on the turn, yeah most of the time we get an opportunity to bluff the river, but also we hit our pair more often, allowing us to win against their bluffs without needing to bet ourselves
@@saulocostapoker Interesting, I always thought the best way was to overfold, but this makes a lot of sense because we can materialize almost any most suitable connector and connect pairs. Thanks bro, I live low stakes and consider this content premium.

Haha yeah. Not much to say, I'm a nerd and like to do nerdy things when I have time. So I coded that to find answers for stuff I previously didn't know for sure. That's the extent of it
Thanks buddy. As I said in the video, I used a custom node locking software that I coded myself. PioSolver has an API that allows you to programatically interact with the solutions. So it's actually quite easy to do what I did, if you have programming skills
Can someone who understands this concept explain it to me? If our opponent is underbluffing, why are we calling the turn with just about everything ? Shouldn't we be folding all our bluff catchers? I am not disputing that the solver is correct, I just don't understand WHY it's correct Is it because the information advantage on the river is so strong, against an underbluffing opponent, it compensates for over calling the turn ? thanks in advance
He’s checking range is weak, meaning he has a tendency of betting when he has a strong hand and folding too often on the river. If he checks the river, it often means that he doesn’t believe that he has a strong hand anymore. At this moment, you may bluff him out of the pot just about anything. Of course don’t call down his bet on the river with mediocre hand. For example, the villain opens ajo utg. You on the btn calls with 82o. The flop comes jh7d2d. He fires 2/3 of the pot and you call. The turn comes to 5s and fires half pot bet and you calls. The river comes a 10d to complete a flush and he check. In this spot, you can literally just shove about anything, and he will probably fold 99%of the time to make everything you call in previous street profitable.
Thank you, Master. I'm already making money because after your lessons I stopped folding against fish. Now I'll take care of the nits. Someday I will visit Brazil, I am sure it is a wonderful country.
@@saulocostapoker I'm from Belarus. But for the last 3 years I have been living in Poland. I really like the culture of Latin America, I understand that it differs from country to country, and I plan to travel all over it. And I am absolutely amazed by the nature of Brazil, of course. I will definitely see this live. By the way, players from Brazil never leave you indifferent and it’s not easy to play with them! And thanks again for everything you do - it's incredibly valuable information. I was shocked by the showdowns when I started calling fish on any river. I used to always fold in situations like this and, oh my God, how many big blinds is that!
To sum things up… Play more hands against bad players that you can exploit on turn and river where pots are bigger and more profitable. Play closer to GTO and how a computer would play when playing against pros
He is referring to my automatic node locking tool. Allows to node lock multiple runouts automatically, whereas the available tools only allow your manual locking of one node at a time. But no, its unlikely I put it for sale
Very good content ! I think there is a 4 point very important that I've experienced with very good results, and this is keep the initiative as long as you can against this players and even steal it whenever you can! Don't leave them choose what they wanna do, don't leave them polarize their range and face very big bets in situations you don't feel confident o don't have a clear way to respond. This way they gonna be more uncomfortable and they gonna make more mistakes
I don't know man, if people are going to play too passively with their bluffs, I kind of want to let them do it, instead of taking that opportunity away from them. Don't you think so too?
@@saulocostapoker yeah exactly, but thats what I mean with your purpose. For example, typical situation defending BB vs Btn, low conected board and btn doesnt cbet. Low turn, I prefer to probe many hands instead of checking and see what he does, bc maybe he's just gonna check and see free equity with high cards instead of tryng to steal the pot..
Won a satellite to the bahamas and played flight A. this last weekend. I got hard exploited. Was over calling/over folding. Need a ton more work to do next time i hope fully win a main event seat again. Thanks for the vids!
@@saulocostapokerI think he means Nanonoko. He was a legendary mass tabling nlhe player on Pokerstars who was Supernova Elite for several years. Even despite his leaks he made insane bank. He was like 24tabling or something iirc.
@@sauloCosta10 Hello, Saulo. It's a joke, because you were referencing the nodes of a game tree. Since Nanonoko made money playing multiple tables against weak opponents, and in this video you talk about how players can make more money if they adjust their play to nodes of the game tree, it gives us nanonodo.
Yeah, you can float the flop to execute level 2 exploits on the river - an excessively weak turn check back range will lead to more fold equity on the river
@@saulocostapokerwhat about this extreme toy example: Huge nit 14/10/5 player, puts all strong hands into cagey lines slow playing everything OOP and IP using what I call; suicide lines a lot with value (bet check bet line) and occasional high equity bluffs. Will this player still end up overfolding when he checks because he doesn’t have enough bluffs or will he meet proper MDF to not be exploited when he checks because he shifts his value into that part of the game tree?

@@PhonyBologna now I want to know more! Hahaha im sure im not opening enough hands then
Phil Galfond talks aout this on his youtube channel ad he has similar general exploit strategies for different playertypes
Awesomeness I’ve joined your newsletter 😉
Phenomenal content. Looking forward to future editions covering how to best thoroughly exploit the other player types as well!
Thanks mate! It's coming 😎
Really really really good video!!! ❤
Thanks buddy!
Great video, thanks ❤
I would like to ask, what % of opening range you used for passive player to open button with?
Thanks buddy. I used normal GTO open range
Hi Saulo, do you usually study the adjustaments on single turn run out? Or we can ask pio to make adjustaments based on a different average frequency of betting turn? If yes, how we can do it?

No problem Giuseppe!
Great video! Well done explaining the concept of exploiting players, it's not an easy one to teach!

You are my poker sensei. Would like to know how you would approach(exploit) the maniac players
Tighten up preflop, and then postflop just check and call them down

Rly good stuff once again. Tyvm
At the last level, calling with marginal hands is because when we don't connect, are we going to bluff a lot when the opponent checks on the river?
The math is simply that what is bad (facing a turn bet) happens less often, which decreases our losses when calling flop, and what is good (facing a turn check) happens more often, which increases our winnings when calling flop. When we face a check on the turn, yeah most of the time we get an opportunity to bluff the river, but also we hit our pair more often, allowing us to win against their bluffs without needing to bet ourselves

Man I love you
Good and inspiring! Thank you!
Thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks ❤️❤️❤️❤️
That's a lot of thanks! Thanks!
The word has lost its meaning for me now 😅
exploits:
1. over fold (vs multi barrels?)
2. attack checks
3. fast play strong hands | over call on early streets to 2.
To sum things up…
Play more hands against bad players that you can exploit on turn and river where pots are bigger and more profitable.
Play closer to GTO and how a computer would play when playing against pros
Second part is not necessarily accurate because there are plenty of passive pros, agaisnt whom you can apply all the exploits in this video
You editor is fire. Nice vid.
