But I could have all these hands.
So my opponent, if he's thinking on a high level, he knows I could have all these hands and I have this one.
So what do I do with this one, right?
In the bigger scope of things.
So that makes it... So yeah, so that's true.
So for example, one of the most extreme examples is...
We have, there's spots where there's a bet that's considered polarizing, right?
So let's say there's a thousand in the pot and you bet 10,000, which is crazy big, right?
That's saying one of two things.
I either have the absolute best possible hand or absolutely nothing because any of the hands in the middle, I wouldn't do that with.
So I'm essentially telling you when I bet that I'm like, I either got it or, you know, I got, I don't have a mediocre hand, like just a pair of nines or a pair of tens.
I have a Royal flush or have nine high.
So with my bet sizing, I can control how my opponent is perceiving what my range is going to be.
So for example, you know, similarly, if I bet small, right?
Well, that could be a lot of hands, right?
That could represent a big part of my range.
Apparently, the more polarized it is.
It depends on who I'm playing with, right?
So if I was playing in a tournament with mediocre or weak players, I think I could probably do pretty well.
