Small bets relativeto the pot require our opponent to frequently call in order to prevent

us from being ableto profitably bet any two cards. The opposite is true for large bets

which require our opponentto occasionally put a lot of money into the pot. Therefore,

picking the rightbet sizing is extremely important and will be discussed in great detail

throughout the book

팟에 비해 상대적으로 작은 사이즈의 벳은 상대가 좀더 자주 콜하게 만들어서, 우리가 아무런 핸드로 블러핑 해서 수익을 내는 것을 막는다. 반대로 큰 사이즈로 벳을 하면 상대방은 팟에 많은 돈을 넣어야만 한다. 그러므로 정확한 사이즈로 벳을 하는 것은 매우 중요하며 이 책을 통틀어서 매우 자세하게 다룰 것이다.

But for now, let’s note that one keyaspect of bet sizing is the average amount of money

our opponent mustput into the pot increases for larger bets. For example, suppose we

want to compare howmuch money our opponent must put into the pot if we bet 0.5 PSB,

1 PSB, or 2 PSB onthe river and our opponent does not want us to be able to profitably

bluff any two cards.

하지만 일단 지금은, 큰 벳의 경우 벳 사이징에 따라서 상대방이 팟에 넣어야 하는 돈의 평균치가 더 많아진다는 관점에 대해 주목해라. 예를 들어서, 우리가 리버에 0.5PSB를 벳할 때, 1PSB를 벳할 때, 2PSB를 벳할 때, 상대방이 우리가 아무 핸드나 블러핑 해서 수익이 나는 것을 막기 위해 얼마나 많은 돈을 팟에 넣어야 하는지를 비교해 보자.

1. For 0.5 PSB, ouropponent must call or raise 66.7 percent of the time to keep us

indifferent tobluffing. He thus ends up putting in on average at least 0.334 pot-sized

bets.

0.334 = (0.5)(0.667)

1. 0.5 PSB의 경우, 상대방은 66.7% 이상의 빈도로 콜 또는 레이즈를 해야 우리가 랜덤 블러핑으로 수익이 나는 것을 막을 수 있다. 즉 그러므로 평균적으로 0.334 PSB를 팟에 넣어야 한다.

2. For 1 PSB, ouropponent must call or raise 50 percent of the time to keep us

indifferent tobluffing. He thus ends up putting in on average at least 0.5 pot-sized

bets.

0.5 = (1)(0.5)

2. 1PSB의 경우, 상대방은 50% 이상 빈도로 콜이나 레이즈를 해야 우리가 랜덤 블러핑으로 수익이 나는 것을 막을 수 있다. 따라서 상대방은 평균적으로 0.5PSB을 팟에 넣어야 한다.

3. For 2 PSB, ouropponent must call or raise at least 33.4 percent of the time to keep us

indifferent tobluffing. He thus ends up putting in at least 0.668 pot-sized bets.

0.668 = (2)(0.334)

3. 2PSB의 경우 상대방은 최소한 33.4% 빈도로 콜이나 레이즈를 해야 우리가 랜덤 블러핑이 수익이 나는 것을 막을 수 있다. 따라서 이경우0.668PSB를 팟에 넣어야 한다.

Big bets get moremoney into the pot but they also make our opponent’s felting range

much stronger thansmall bets. So betting the right amounts with the proper hands

without making ourrange too transparent is one of the most important and difficult

concepts to master.

큰 벳은 더 많은 돈을 팟에 넣게 되지만 동시에 상대방이 콜하는 레인지도 작은 벳보다 강하게 만든다. 그러므로 우리 레인지가 노출되지 않게 하면서, 적절한 핸드로 적절한 만큼 베팅하는 것이 가장 어렵고 마스터 하기 힘든 개념 중 하나이다.
