Not necessarily. If you are really bad at playing a hand like KJo postflop OOP, then it might actually be better to 3 bet here with 62o. I can think of several such players.Originally Posted by gabe

then those players should just close their eyes and pretend they have 26o, then check it down when possible and they will be good more often than when they have 26o ! | |

As far as i know noones hating you here. Were just trying to expain a fairly important concept that you obviously just dont get. I think you need to read through this thread a few times and think about what people are saying rather than thinking about ways to argue about it that dont really make alot of sense. | |

will, if you check in my blog i have a post where i do an in depth analysis of a hand where i polarize my range into tricking my opponent into jamming on me w/ air, u might wanna check it out. it's the very first post titled "hand analysis" or something like that, and the post on "timing tells" follows up w/ extra info on it. |

i think the reason's marshall posts make me so mad is that he has this attitude where he convinces himself that he is right and its impossible for anyone to convince him otherwise | |

But you cant work from information you dont have yet. If you adjust to that then you end up playing badly against everyone else. | |

pelion : based on your definition i always merge my ranges and i never polarize them. i guess part of my confusion about it was the fact that i never read about it until after i had discovered it was a good way to get value from players thinking im bluffing by taking a strong line, so i just picked the term polarizing since i felt like that seemed to fit like the idea of what i was doing ... |

wufwugy ... i dont know if there are other reasons for why you would want to polarize in certain instances, but i can think of one..... |
