1. Pot odds are theratio of the current size of the pot to the cost of a potential call. They are critical fordetermining how often we need to expect to win to justify a call.

팟 오즈는 현재 팟의 크기에 대해 잠정적으로 콜 해야할 금액의 비율이다. 팟 오즈는 얼마나 자주 콜을 해야만 하는가를 결정하는데 매우 중요하다.

2. Equity tells usthe odds a hand will be the best hand by the river against an opponent’s hand or range.

에쿼티는 상대방의 핸드나 레인지에 대해 핸드가 리버에서 베스트가 될 확률을 의미한다.

3. The expectedvalue of a hand tells us how much money we expect to win when we take

a certain line. Itconsiders all money invested in the pot as dead money up to the

current decision.

핸드의 기댓값은 우리가 특정 라인에 따라서 플레이 할 때, 얼마나 수익이 나는지를 알려준다. 기댓값은 현재까지 팟에 들어간 모든 돈은 데드머니로 취급한다.

4. Hands with moreequity are not necessarily better than hands with less equity. It’s

important our handretains its equity against our opponent’s raising and calling

ranges. That’s why hands like the 9♥8♥are almost always better than hands likethe A♦7♣.

더 많은 에쿼티를 가진 핸드가 더 적은 에쿼티를 가진 핸드보다 항상 좋은 것은 아니다. 우리 핸드가 상대방의 레이즈 레인지와 콜링 레인지에 대해 얼만큼의 에쿼티를 가지고 있는지가 매우 중요하다. 그렇기 때문에 9h 8h는 거의 항상 Ad 7c보다 좋은 핸드이다.

5. Hands cannotsimply be ranked from strongest to weakest. Different hands perform

better in differentspots. For example, the is better inmultiway pots and the plays best in aheads up pot.

핸드는 단순히 강한 핸드와 약한핸드로 순위를 매길수는 없다. 각각의 핸드들은 다양한 상황에서 다른 핸드보다 더 좋게 플레이 할 수 있다. 예를 들어서, 3c3h는 Ad Qh 에 비해 멀티웨이 팟에서 좋지만 헤즈업에서는 Ad Qh 를 더 잘 플레이 할 수 있을 것이다.

6. A polarized rangeconsists of mostly strong and weak hands. A condensed range

consists of mostlymedium strength hands. A betting or raising range will often but not always bepolarized, and a calling range will often be condensed.

양극화된 레인지는 대부분 매우 강한 핸드와 약한 핸드들로 구성되어 있으며, 결집된 레인지는 대부분 중간정도 세기의 핸드로 구성되어 있다. 항상 그런 것은 아니지만 베팅이나 레인지는 일반적으로 양극화 되어 있으며, 콜링 레인지는 결집되어 있다.

7. Our betting rangewill almost always be polarized on the river. If we bluff too much, a

strong opponent willalways call with his bluff catchers, and if we bluff too little, he

will always fold hisbluff catchers. Thus, our goal is to make this player indifferent to

calling and foldingwith his marginal hands.

 우리의 리버 베팅 레인지는 거의 항상 리버에서 양극화되어 있다. 만약 우리가 너무 많이 블러프한다면 실력있는 상대는 블러프 캐쳐를 가지고 있을 때, 항상 콜을 할 것이고, 만약 우리가 너무 블러프를 안한다면, 항상 블러프 캐쳐를 폴드할 것이다. 그러므로 우리 목표는 상대방이 마지널한 핸드를 콜이나 폴드하는 것이 거의 비슷한 기댓값을 가지게 하는 것이다.

8. Hands cannotalways be classified as either a value bet or a bluff. This is especially

true on the flopwhen a bet can have both bluffing and value properties.

핸드를 항상 벨류벳이나 블러프로 구분하는 것은 불가능하다. 이는 특히 플랍에서 우리가 벳하는 것이 블러프적 요소와 벨류적 요소를 모두 포함한 경우에 더더욱 그렇다.

9. Our opponentshould often be close to indifferent between bluffing and folding the

worst hands in hisbluffing range.

 우리는 상대방이 레인지의 가장 약한 핸드로 블러핑하는것과 폴드 하는것의 기댓값이 거의 비슷하게 만들어야한다.

10. Being inposition provides many benefits and greatly increases the profitability of a

player’s range.

 IP에서 플레이 하는 것은 매우 많은 이점을 지니며, 플레이어 레인지의 수익을 매우 증가시킨다.
