Message: [QUOTE="BetterThanAvgButNotByMuch, post: 6269820, member: 480921"] Day 3: Thinking In Ranges Wow, Its been like a year since anyone posted lol. The major thing that Collin is emphasizing in this vid is a big step for a lot of folks and that's moving away from just thinking about what you're holding and actually trying to put folks on a range or guesstimate of what others are holding. If you pay attention to Collins commentary in every example, its trying to put folks on a hand so you can know where you are in a hand, get information why they're in the hand and what they're playing so you have an idea of what to expect in future hands. Regardless of the outcome, I like listening to the thought process of these hands, especially with the AK example. Why would they call a raise with 8x? Unless they don't know starting hands. There aren't a lot of hands that folks would call with an 8 so we can get rid of that idea. Collin shows you a systematic way to know where you are in a hand. Is it 100% on? Of course not but its a better way to play than just playing your hand and ignore the info your opponents are giving you during the hands. Even when you're not in a hand, you should be paying attention and trying to figure folks range and putting that info in the notes or using the color codes online to classify folks for future reference so you can have an idea of their range for when you do end up in a hand with them. I liked that the ebook addressed the issue that some folks going over this material that play freerolls/ stuff with low buyins might say that their opponents don't know starting hands and will flip up any two cards. All I could add to this is this process is essential in becoming a better player regardless of who you're playing. Another episode down. FORWARD!!!!!! [/QUOTE]
