I just read this article... I think I gained a lot from it. This article is definitely what I needed to get my head rolling in the right direction. I will most definitely be reading this again tomorrow when I am not so tired...

Right now, I feel like my biggest problem/leak is that I do not really know where to start with putting my opponents on ranges. I feel that this is the most important aspect of playing winning poker. I have been trying fiercely over the past few days to pick up on all I can in every aspect of poker I come across, but am definitely struggling with this the most. Does anyone know of any good exercises or things I can practice to become better at putting villain on ranges? I just got HEM the other day. I understand very little of it, mostly vpip, pfr, and how to look at fold to 3 bet, c bet, and other basics. Is there more I should know or understand of HEM right now that would help me with putting my opponents on ranges?


Thanks
