Message: [QUOTE="gardin555, post: 7096412, member: 150168"] If the player you talk about have nuts or bluff, that not necessary means he polarized range, it could be that he is TAG or LAG player who is newbie on poker, you can see this kind of players too much in microstakes games. I think polarize range is more used in cash game than tournament games, but in any case is one high level strategy. We can't identify to the opponent polarized range, because the goal of polarize the range is for to don't be identified, hide our real range. The range is the cards the oponnent think we play more and the possible cards we have in one hand. The polarized range is our own strategy to hide our range to the opponent. Its means if we have a tight image on table, we could to call or bet in some positions or situations to get the pot, for example with the low part of our range, that's not necessary mean its a bluff. If we always play A10s+ TT+, etc, but sometimes we polarized our range, and open raise, or cbet or 3bet with our worst part of our range, for example 910, 89, 10j, gap suited, etc. I am not bluffing there, I am taking advantage of my image or my range in certain situations, but this is not a bad hand, this is the worst part of my range, so I am polarizing my range there. I think there are no exist a strategy against this, the only way you could try to guess if he is polarizing or not, try to read the player, is known the players, observer him, how he is playing, his numbers, stats, etc. But I think polarized range is more about our own strategy, more than try to read the opponent´s PR.
