Been reading and studying a lot about GTO poker lately.
Got Matthew Janda's poker book "Applications of No-Limit Hold'em" and been working my way through that so far. Seems decent so far, but I'm not that far into it yet. Also been reading some other online resources.
Been mostly focused on studying lately instead of playing. Feel like I'm better off spending X hours studying now (whatever X is) and then play Y hours of poker after I've done all that studying, rather than intersperse Y playing amongst all of X. At least in the former method I'll be able to implement all I've learned from X hours into my Y hours of play.
My first implementation of GTO will be preflop. Getting GTO ranges for 4betting (based on my opening ranges by position), and also getting GTO 3b and 5b ranges based on villains opening % by position. Once I've got these down I'll turn to postflop which I think will be much more difficult.
My main problem has always been having frequencies that are way out of whack (and thus exploitable). I need to think of a good way to control postflop frequencies (bluffing vs value betting). In practice I can figure this out offline, but IN-game it's tough to estimate how many value combos you have in a spot, and apply this accordingly with appropriate frequencies to your bluffing.
