Daniel Negreanu

Bet one-third pot, bet two-thirds pot, or bet one-and-a-half times pot, okay?

You give it three parameters.

It comes out with an output, and it tells you what you should do with all the different hands you have.

However...

That's a simplified version of what a solver would really do because a solver might decide that seven times the pot is best, 10% of the pot.

But when you're putting in a solve, you can only put in specific parameters.

So that's why, frankly, that's typically the number, one third, two third, and one and a half times pot is what people often do.

So they sort of have a vague idea of what a solver wants.

But again, imperfect in terms of the implementation of it.

right?

And memorizing all the variables, like that King Jack offsuit with the King of Diamonds is 13%.

No human brain can do that.

So what you do is you bucket it.

Like you bucket it into, say, instead of 10,000 variables, you have 10 buckets and you say, okay, with these hands, we do roughly this and we do roughly this.

And you try your best to, you know, stay within those lines.

But again, what I love about live poker partly is that nobody will ever be able to master game theory, you know, and mimic a solver.

So the solver will do that, right?

And essentially, you don't input your hand, right?

It tells you... You'll look at the grade and be like, all right, this is my hand.

And it tells you what it is.
