Well, this acronym is something that at first had nothing to do with poker or just poker, it is a concept derived from mathematics that can be practically applied in everything in life that involves decisions. You will hardly find a GTO relationship with poetry, theater, and so on, but whatever else goes into making decisions for optimal results, or better than presented, mathematics can help a lot.
More and more the world is mathematics, not that simplistic mathematics that we learn in school, it is the basis, but a more refined mathematics, married to the strand of statistics and analysis of mathematical past to reach the future promising
The acronym GTO stands for Game Theory Optimal in a summary to facilitate understanding are portions of mathematical knowledge that lead you to make the best independent decision of the tendencies of the movements of your opponents. It is a decision making near perfect, or perfect, situation that makes no decision of your opponent can result in something profitable for him.
When you put examples of GTO in situations such as even or odd game, it is easy to understand, but when it comes to a game as complex as Texas Holdem No Limit decisions are complex and almost never get to optimize strategies 100% however, playing online poker primarily where each mouse click connects to a created graph of thousands upon thousands of situations, pursuing mathematically correct decisions can make all the difference to your success.
The advancement of this mathematical knowledge in poker has resulted in software that demonstrates proven numerous situations that when entered, these software unquestionably show you the best decision. Put variables like how many big blinds you have, what position you are in, and your opponents' stacks and software will tell you what action you take if you will never exploit your opponents, so it will always be profitable.
Poker has changed a lot from the time I was grading online, between 2005 and 2014, even at the end of this period, mathematical concepts such as these were already much explored at the tables but not with the accuracy and tooling that is presented today. However, some much simpler concepts to understand and complex to apply still apply and this still creates a great opportunity for live poker players. At live tables not the same volumes are made as on the online tables and so, mathematically perfect players often continue to suffer more pressure over seeing their decisions being rewarded where the environment is different from the one he is accustomed to. Obviously high-level players do not undergo any pressure and get a perfect match between the mathematical movements of the game and the variables presented in the live, and I'm not talking only about great players gets a great adaptation of these two worlds.
And I've been doing my homework and some things I can share with you, and I know that your game can evolve a lot with simple tips, in fact, great translations of complex teachings.
Example:
You who play poker online early in the career or the main, you who only play poker live, know what is or is concerned about the concept of being a balanced player?
Difficult understands what this means right? however, can be simplified.
Remember the last time you played poker! Can you tell me how many times you bluffed in this tournament? If yes, great, but do not bluff, right, I think you do not remember, remember, show! Now another question, can you remember how many times you played by value? That is, how many de facto hands did you come from and how many of them did you hit flops, turns and rivers? Do not say value hands only AA, KK, hands many times like 78s you hitou and played all the streets by value?
Well, being a balanced player means that these two numbers should be balanced. Be similar. Otherwise you are exploitable! That is, otherwise, technical players will find a gap in their game and take advantage of this at a certain time depending on which side their numbers are hanging.
If you go up 2.5x from UTG only AA, KK, AK, QQ, JJ and never go up 45s, 67s and etc., you do not create a balance in this situation so you are exploitable so technical players will take advantage of this take your chart to the detriment, or at least lose more than you lost before.
If you do not make volume of course, damn it, but damn it all in the real, even if you hit yours or not because you do not expose yourself to the game in a way to seek the least chance of winning, but if you wants to look at poker in a cool way, whether for professionalism or profitable hobby, understand that this type of concept is FUNDAMENTAL for your success.
Gradually I will write more for you here in the forum, I hope you like it,
