Not so long ago we had a 5-day-long coaching course in our German and Russian communities. This course, during which you'll learn how to assess open raise ranges, was created by a famous German coach FaLLout86. And now we proudly present its localized version!
Train for 20 minutes each day, and in a few days you'll know what ranges are played by best regulars!
What ranges should I open raise in a given spot? With what should I call raises and 3-bets?
To answer these questions, we selected a few of the strongest NL $400 regulars and checked their positional raises.
Also this course was constructed in a way that after you complete it you'll be able to build ranges for your current limits. We merged all the opponents under a single alias in Holdem Manager 2 and then applied some filters.
Main themes of this course are as follows:
- Getting to know different Raise-First-In ranges of the best NL $400 regulars.
- Understanding calling ranges.
- Which hands to protect after a 3-bet (position dependent).
- Which boards suit us best after we open raise.
- Which boards suit us best after we call.
"Every problem presents an opportunity."
Since the whole analysis was done in Holdem Manager 2, it will be useful for you to have HM2 as well. If you don't have HM2, it's not a tragedy, of course, but then you'll have to skip some tasks.
ATTENTION!
Please post if you like it or simply say "I'll try!"
in the opening thread.
So please post there:
"I'll try!" – if you've decided to participate in this coaching.
"I've finished Day X" – as soon as you've completed all tasks for the corresponding day!
Of course, you are also free to leave feedback about this project, so that we could improve it further.
