NLHE Foundations Course #06: Pre-Flop Ranges (Part 3)

[doddly10]

MP vs EP = AJs, QQ, 88
LP vs EP = AQs, TT, 77, 66
Blinds vs EP = 66, TT, AKo, AQo, AJs, ATs
LP vs MP = J9s, 66, 99, JJ, QQ, KQo
Blinds vs MP = 44, 88, JJ, KJs
Blinds vs LP = 44, 66, 77, 99, TT, J9o, J9s, J8s, Q8s, Q6s, KJs, AQo, AKs, A4s

Assigning ranges seems quite difficult because they overlap a lot

1) MP vs EP Range = TT-88,ATs,KJs-KTs,QTs+,AJo-ATo,KJo+
2) LP vs EP = TT-66,A9s,KJs-K9s,Q9s+,J9s,ATo,KTo+,QTo+
3) Blinds vs EP = TT-66,A9s,KJs-K9s,Q9s+,J9s,ATo,KTo+,QTo+,JTo
4) LP vs MP = TT-66,A9s,KJs-K9s,Q9s+,J9s,ATo,KTo+,QTo+,JTo
5) Blinds vs MP = 99-44,A9s,K9s,Q9s,J9s,KTo,QTo,JTo
6) Blinds vs LP = 99-22,K9s-K7s,Q9s-Q7s,J9s-J8s,T8s+,ATo-A9o,KTo,QTo,JTo

note: 2-4 are nearly the same ranges

Stats:

MP vs EP Range = 7%
LP vs EP = 10%
Blinds vs EP = 11%
LP vs MP = 10%
Blinds vs MP = 4.5% (really surprised me but I double checked the number)
Blinds vs LP = 12%

Question: Is it correct that 3bet and calling ranges increase in the order given above? Exception given Blinds above.

ranges are always a hard thing to get correct let alone with a small sample size, if its the same person as the three betting analysis you did its interesting to see QQ comes uo in his LP call range, so his stat of 6.6 3bet must include more three bet bluffs and 4 betting this player wider than we might normally would would be a good idea. maybe his calling range in the blinds would be 99-22 versus all raises, i dont seem him folding 22 if he is calling J9s

Yes the calling range out of blinds really surprised me aswell because its so low in comparison to BB.
In theory it might be a good idea to call more tightly in SB because the BB gets amazing odds and we're getting sandwhiched.
