The point of precise calculations is to build intuition away from the table regarding estimating EV at the table. Obviously at the table we take short-cuts to calculate EV, so we are not being so precise. When we do calcualtions away from the table we obviously can run them through a calculator and be more exact. I find it good practice and I still feel it is important to exercise your mind once and awhile and do some math - and there's no point in just dissing someone's analysis without giving much of one yourself.

Well that opening range is 6% of hands, and considering he is 11/6, I figure he'll open fewer hands in EP, more hands in LP, and about well, 6% of hands it MP. Also, he is isolating a limper, so if anything his range could be slightly wider than 6%. In other words, give or take 1% and it still doesn't change things too much - run the math.

Whether the range is tighter or not, either way there's still definately more value calling as opposed to 3-betting, like you said. I haven't done the precise calcuations regarding postflop play because what I did was enough. I'm not trying to disagree with 3-betting being the better play, in fact, if you even bothered to read my analysis, you'd see my conclusion on why it is NOT better.

If you don't think doing math away from the table is important to learning how to think through situations that arise, that's fine. This game is 100% math though, so good luck to you, sir.

EDIT: fwiw I believe MP2 opening ranges will be roughly + or - 1% off from the total PFR, depending on a players postional awareness.

(ATS stat would be nice here)
