Range of hands, quotas, and combos investments (Part 2)

!±8± Range of hands, quotas, and combos investments (Part 2)

We're used to players with narrow (10%), Loose (25%) and Maniac (50%) VPIP, but there are standard categories for the areas?

Standard ranges

a) There are five main categories of hand:

Couples .............................. 5.85%
Broadway ...................... 12.00%
Ax (Other )....................... 9.60%
Connectors .................... 38.40%
Other ............................ 33.60%

Note: Broadway is a combination AKQJT Ax (More) allNon-BW Ace and connections are all 2-card with no more than a gap of 3 between them.

b) Sub-Groups

Couples can be divided into four subgroups: AA / KK, QQ-99, 88-55 and 44-22

Broadway can be divided into two subgroups: AT +, KT + / + QT / JT

Ax (Other) is a group (without a sub-group), all non-cotton by hand is an ace of the line (A9 - A2)

Connections can be divided into four subgroups: No Gap, Gap 1, 2 and 3 Gap

Another is a group (without a sub-group) of all hands off the other 3Top Groups

c) suitable and unsuitable

The non-torque groups and subgroups, and may possibly inappropriate (or off-suit) areas are divided.

d) Abbreviations

PP ................................. Pocket Pairs
BW ................................ Broadway
s. .................................. Suitable
o. .................................. Inappropriate (off-suit)
SC ................................ Suitable connector
USC .............................. UnsuitableConnector
ngâp ............................. with = 1, 2 or 3 Gap Linked
OS ................................ More Suited
NE .............................. Others are not compatible

e) Example

A (approximately) 10% of the area the same age might, BW and SC (5.85 + 3.00 + 2.40 = 11.25%), or the upper half of the pairs are taken, BW and SC (99 + / + AJ / KJ + /-76s T9) to 2.70 + 6.00 + 1.20 = 9.90% combinations, or other -% increase in number, increasing the potential for different types of combinations, aswell.

A player may play cards in several different positions.

It 'very important to see the men play cards and write how active you are in different locations - for example, they play Axs or Ax, premium pairs and all pairs, all cotton or cotton easy under the direction of A-and K .

The first two categories of rank (individual and Broadway), for a total of over 17% of all hands available, increasing to 27% when the rest are included and Ax + 65% for the first 4 groups (when an opponent isplaying all these hands that he is very loosely). The reading skills of the hand is a simple technique, based on structured analysis - should become second nature.

There are only so many combinations can play, and showdowns offer a variety of information, so be careful at the table!
