am your sister from Yemen, and by Allah I only spoke out of hunger and distress. My mother, my brothers, and I lessons and tears. We are in a situation that only God knows about. God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs for those who brought us to this situation. By Allah Almighty, I did not write this appeal out of distress and distress. Poverty, O world, they have felt it So, I hope for you. By Allah Almighty, Lord of the Great Throne, he ate what I had in the house. By Allah, my brothers, he is my brothers by sitting in the house. Who has no food? By God, we are in a very difficult situation. We have 4 people entering the house, and my father has died, and there is no one who can depend on us and who lives in it.We live in a rented house because we cannot pay the rent we owe. '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''' My brother, my first words are: I swear to God that I will not lie to you or deceive you. I am a Yemeni girl displaced from the war. My family and I live in a rented house in Al-Shahrab 20,000 Yemenis amongs, and now we owe 60,000 for 3 months. The owner of the house is one of the people who does not have mercy, by God, my brother. He comes every day, insulting us, talking about us, and moving from the house to the street because we were unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and came back.They came back to talk to the neighbors and we were given the weekend. So we made him swear by God. He will take us out into the street. Have mercy on him and us. Our country is due to this war and we do not find food for our day, and my brothers and I live in a difficult life. Our father died, may God have mercy on him, and we have no one in this world who was with us in these harsh circumstances. My younger brothers went out into the street and saw...The neighbors eat and stand at their door in order to give them bread even if they break it. By God, to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, they closed the door and expelled them and came back crying. They are dying of hunger. No one has mercy on them and a holiday is returned. I have made a living, and now if us helps us with a kilo of flour, I swear to God, I am dying of hunger. My brother, I am an alien to God. Then, I ask you to help me for the sake of God. I ask you, by God, to love goodness and to help me, even if you can, by messaging me on WhatsApp.On this number 00967772168484 and ask for the name of my card and send it and do not be late and may God reward you with all the best, my brothers Sagar, see how they are and help us and save us before they throw us out in the street, you will be lost or we will die of hunger. My family and I ask you, by God, if you are able to help us, do not be late and may God reward you well..`/--~«««~~♡~♡~............^.^._.._.^.''''-''-''-'-''-''-''-''-''-'-''-'--'-'-''-'-''-''-''-'-'😥😥""......
44:22 Tit for tat in terms of retaliation isn’t GTO, since minor retaliations can often end up costing you more than damage initially taken, and can also lead to the worse of the two possible equilibriums. Thomas Schelling brought this up way back during the Cold War. I think the book is called Strategy of Conflict. It’s GTO to essentially run an RNG whenever someone inflicts minor damage, and retaliate in a grossly disproportionate manner some small percentage of the time.
Jungleman your friend Galfond has you beat in the audio quality/ production jk... but seriously would appreciate better audio quality....I had to listen with subtitles
What Tomoyo did at the final table is absolutely cheating in Nevada and extremely unethical. Imagine the cheating those 3 parasites do online. Runnijg it twice out of position only in the hopes of getting an extra chip on a chop is grimy and pathetic. But it's not adding much to your win rate. Think about how often someone like this is actually all in out of position.Then think about of those times how many are chops. Then of those its gonna be 50/50 on whether or not there actually is an edtra trip. In a 100/100 game it's probably worth like 10 bucks an hour.
Mr. Jungle- Could you PLEASE go into "Test all the points where the range is weak and just keep hammering them". Can you give an example or just expound on it in the comment section? I think this is genius and all these years I never thought about it.
Any capped spot. Sometimes videos go into.. Ex: Everyone xx to river any position, most runouts, and you can overbet big. Ax boards are sometimes an exception
Hope this gets some traction- I've been saying this for a while. Used to be head of fraud and collusion department for iPoker, and when I left RTA had solved HU and short stack/ limited position games, ie twisters/ spin & gos. That was nearly 5 years ago, so inevitable the whole poker ecology is becoming infected.
He’s talking about live play lol. 25-50 Live is like 50NL these days. Online there is no “pattern recognition” or “I feel he’s weak or strong here”. He’s from a time where they used psychology to gain an edge in there games. He would get ate alive in a rush or blitz setting online or even any Reg 500NL lobby without a basic understanding of GTO principles and “fundamentals”. Gto also isn’t about being a “robot”. Everybody who uses Gto knows you cannot 100% play it to a T. But guess what? Some of the best in the world play extremely Close to it. Just like a GM in chess knows 100s If not 1000s of openings and positions in chess. In Gto, it’s the same thing. You know 1000s of spots and what your range and a solver wants to do in alot of spots. It gets way deeper then that. But, the point is, phil might have all these bracelets and final table finishes, but at the end of the day he wouldn’t last online. He’s made his way in poker in a live setting and that’s fine. However, his ego doesn’t allow him to admit he can’t hang with the best in the world. I would love to see him play heads up or 6max with Linus love red baron berri sweet Doug Polk and all the other Gto kings. It wouldn’t even be close.
solving RTA shoudn't be too difficult. it seems to me like the way chess does it. you measure your own presolved databases and if someone is playing too close to GTO, you investigate and take action if necessary. not even the best chess players can play perfectly. poker, especially with the time limit for decisions, and the complexity with the vast number of nodes, players should NOT be playing close to GTO. now, ofc a player can deviate intentionally, maybe slowing down the time it takes to detect (but they should account for intentional deviations too when detecting)
(I will never read a reply) Don't play anywhere for real money. Every site has the same algorithm now. They are only legally required to shuffle the deck randomly once. After that shuffle, they can literally just give you any cards they want to. They are never tested for dealing, flop, turn, river. And they all have their legal quarters in 'Isle of Mann', which is basically a pirates haven for corrupt businesses. Jungleman is not your friend. He's sponsored and will say what he needs to say to receive his millions of dollars in sponsorship money.
It’s important to have the structure vary a bit every round, and have a fair number of mandatory prop bets that can randomly get inserted. If you just run a steady structure game with each player anteing 2.5bb, there will be solves for it in no time flat.
Phil is the GOAT in all things except sponsorships. Used to wear “UltimateBet” (stole all the money) now he wears “Bitcoin Latinum” (lost all the money.
Covid destroyed poker rooms. Most places didn't want to be up to code and the delays while poker rooms were being renovated with safeguards people did not want to come there or they stopped coming. Then other people found other places to play underground games. Was very surprised my old hometown casino never reopened.
Eric, please save Seneca Niagara Poker Room in Niagara Falls, NY. Great location, great people. It shutdown during Covid and never reopened. Would make so many people happy.
Why he is talking like a winning player? Lol. Dude is awful at poker. Got busted out of the million 5 minutes in shoving against Patrik drawing dead and didn't even know he had no outs. He called out for a card that wouldn't have helped him lol. I wouldn't listen to this dude on any level.
Until it is regulated by the gaming commission online poker will never be what it could be... they have the opportunity to do something huge if they can just get it right
(Will never read a reply) There is zero regulation at all. They just have to prove they can shuffle it randomly and after that they can just deal any cards they want at any avenue.
