LemOn36 is back with the latest in his series of one-off Monthly Specials where he tackles a different topic each time. 

In today's session our coach looks at whether adopting a very simple strategy with standard bet sizes and lines can be effective, or should you always vary your play?

Using solvers, hand examples and the mighty power of PokerStrategy Twitch chat, we will look at both approaches to see which is best. You will discover:

  • When to deviate from 2/3 pot bet sizes
  • When a simple strategy makes sense
  • When a multiple size strategy is more profitable
  • When can we simplifying our range?

Plus as always it will be a fun time in the chat, so don't miss out on this stream whatever level you are at. Visit LemOn36's thread for more details.
