WiltOnTilt begins with a primer on the importance of math in NL Hold'em. In a classroom setting, he discusses probability and odds, variance, pot equity, and introduces us to Expected Value (EV).

WiltOnTilt will discuss key concepts related to the mathematics of No-Limit play using Powerpoint. Begin with the basics: probability and pot odds. Then follow Wilt to more advanced arenas: implied odds and reverse implied odds, software tools and mental shortcuts for equity calculations, complex EV calculations, and an exploration of fold equity. And watch this series conclude with a discourse on the ultimate in professional poker math: hand frequencies, valuebetting, and G-bucks.

Great! A lot is this is basic knowledge that most of us have, but review never hurts and there are new ideas scattered throughout even the basics. So please keep it the way that you are doing it. Perfect. I am especially interested in shortcuts at the table.

Thanks HappyFool. I promise you we'll be getting into some more advanced stuff, but I wanted to make sure everyone has a base foundation of knowledge, so even total newbies will be able to understand the later stuff.

Thanks for watching!

Professor WiltOnTilt- great video, thanks.

For the group,
do you always report odds in the ratio format with the larger number on the left and use the dog/favorite word as the clarifier. or is it also proper to show odds as 1:4 when you have a 20% chance of making your hand? or is "4:1 dog" the industry standard/preferred way.

thanks!

Awesome job Aaron, looking forward to future eps Smile It seems like this will be the most beneficial series for me (and probably many others) out of all the series that have been put up so far. I think alot of people though may miss out on this gem as it feels like alot more work (and less fun) than watching the other vids. That's just an observation though, not a criticism - It's kinda like asking someone if they'd rather go to a maths lesson or watch a movie, pretty easy answer unless the person is really motivated to improve their maths.

Hey,

Just watched this video first and am most interested in this series so far.

I usually use 1:4, mainly so that you don't look and see 4:1 and stop reading there and assume something you shouldn't.

The name implies that this series only relates to NL. My main game now is limit so I haven't watched this until Oink mentioned it in his video. This is great stuff for all Poker calcs. The first is basic but really well presented. It really helps to reinforce basic knowledge and I look forward to watching the entire series. I recommend this series for all players. Good math skills are +EV for all poker players in any games. Like you said, Not as fun as watching people play, but important knowledge to help a person understand all gambling and the other videos. Table shortcuts are super-important to me and I love your ability to explain concepts to non math geeks. Thanks and keep up the good work.

A couple of slightly better approximations concerning the rules of 4 and 2.

4 * #of outs -(# of outs greater then 8) = turn percentage

for outs 6 and above
2 * #of outs + 2 = river percentage

A minor correction:

The outs of an open-end straight draw + flush draw should be 15. The video's chart says 14.
