Josh Noy

Level 6 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

When it comes to poker strategy, few concepts are as fundamental — and as misunderstood — as ranges. Knowing when to bet, raise, check, or call is the foundation of playing winning poker, yet even the most experienced players can often construct their ranges in ways that leak EV.

That’s exactly what poker coach Matt Hunt tackles in this GTO Wizard training video, Are Your Ranges Broken? Here’s How To Fix Them. The lesson shines a light on the difference between aggressive and defensive ranges, and how players can construct each type properly across all streets.

Level 6 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Action was picked up on the flop with the board showing 7♥6♣J♣ and 80,000 in the pot.

Mustapha Kanit in the big blind was facing a bet of 55,000 from Santosh Suvarna in middle position. Kanit then raised that bet to 115,000, before Suvarna three-bet to put Kanit all in for roughly 560,000. He double checked his cards and made the call.

Mustapha Kanit: A♣10♣ All in
Santosh Suvarna: A♠J♥

Suvarna was in front after flopping top pair but would need to fade the flush draw of Kanit. However, that draw came right in as the 9♣ hit on the turn leaving Suvarna drawing dead as the J♦ completed the board, giving Kanit the double up.

Player	Chips	Progress
Mustapha Kanit	1,250,000 1,250,000	1,250,000
Santhosh Suvarna	80,000 80,000	80,000

Action folded around to Brandon Steven in the small blind, who raised to 27,000. Daniel Zack checked his cards in the big blind, and slid in the call.

Steven led out for 27,000 on the 3♠Q♦J♣ flop, and Zack called to see the 9♠ turn. Steven led out again, this time for 61,000.

Zack made another call, and Steven checked the 6♠ river. After taking some time, Zack tossed out a bet 160,000, taking down the pot as Steven slid his cards into the muck.

Level 6 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Masashi Oya opened to 18,000 in middle position, which was called by Kristen Foxen in the hijack and Ruslan Khadartsev on the button. Then Orpen Kisacikoglu in the small blind three-bet to 90,000. The big blind folded as did Oya and Foxen, but Khadartsev made the call.

After the 2♥7♣8♣ flop, Kisacikoglu bet out 120,000, which got to muck and give the pot to Kisacikoglu.
