WoT I gotta say I didn't think it was possible. I've never been bad at any form of math but always hated lessons and note taking. But in the past 2 hours I've covered my monitor with stickies and notes that will obviously have to be written on paper for me to actually use it in practice. The videos I've seen by you, Balugawhale, and Tubasteve alone make this site worth its fee and I've only just begun climbing lol. Keep up the quality work

why does two pair with no other info have only 4 combos? aren't there 3 aces left in the deck and 3 kings for a total of 9 combos?

thanks


Ya I have the same question, I can't see how its 4 combos.

Hi Wilt

I'm working my way over this series as well at the moment and have to say that all of the sudden poker is starting to make a whole lot more sense! (hooray) Albeit the eurka moment is only after having you watched explain the same thing for about the sixth time! Wink

Anyways, just wanted to say that I'm really enjoying the series and wanted to ask you if there is any chance that you have any work in excel that we can practice with? Otherwise I'll have to make an attempt to recreate it all from the ground up Smile

Thanks

Sorry I don't have anything currently made up in Excel, i think there have been some excel shortcuts for fold equity etc floating around though

Yea if we had say T8hh instead of 68hh we would have another 3 outs when he has top pair, so our equity would be better vs that part of his range (and therefore overall we'd be doing better vs his range)

Been going back over videos due to the recent indictments and wanted to contribute to the thread a little. In the examples of figuring combinations for pocket pairs it works similarly to the two card combos except you divide by two. So for possible combos of 22 you take (4*3)/2=6 combos. So if you want to know the combos of set of deuces on 27K then its (3*2)/2=3 Thats the remaining 3 deuces multiplied by the remaining 2 deuces. You divide it by two because if you were to figure all the combinations you would actually come up with 12 total combos for pocket pairs but the second half would actually be the same two card combos as the first half just reversed i.e. 2d2h and 2h2d. Hope this helps someone.

Hey Aaron, quick question on g-bucks. I think you said it is covered in more detail in ep8 and if this is answered there I apologize. So can you play based on g-bucks if you are playing someone who does not think about your range of hands. Meaning if you know you take a certain line with this range of hands, and your opponent calls you down with whatever and he is the kind that does not think about your range, do g-bucks still apply?

Yes, definitely still applies assuming you have a good handle on what the ranges are (more in ep 8)

Definitely an awesome series. I was scared the math concepts would be more difficult to understand but your examples and wording definitely make it easier to grasp then I originally thought I would b able too. Awesome video and I'll def revisit this one to write down your combo chart Grin

Just so you know WoT there is a trick to getting the combos for pocket pairs like QQ 4x3 /2 = 6. The total number of cards x the total number -1 / 2.

Hey Wot,
just wondering how come there is 3 sixes and 3 jacks assuming that villain doesn't hold j-6? Is it just a way to count our outs or what?
