Level 1: The MacroAnalysis

1. Poker Gto Strategy

GTO has become a buzzword synonymous with anything from “best possible strategy” to “good,” depending on the user. You might hear someone describe their steak dinner as GTO, or even their dog. When you hear people talk about a GTO poker strategy, they probably mean to say a game theory-based strategy.

The MacroAnalysis evaluates the overall strategy of Hero's range. The primary focus at this level is on range advantage, position and SPR, since typically these factors significantly influence how specific holdings within the range are played.

• GTO (Game-Theory Optimal): This playing style is where you essentially attempt to play perfect poker yourself, which in turn only allows for your opponents to make mistakes against you (which is where almost all of your profit will be derived from).

These grids show the possible hands which each player is likely to hold given prior actions. Hands which are more likely to be in a player's range are shaded darker. The GTOx dashboard juxtaposes both player's ranges since in GTO, strategies are wholly devised based upon how the ranges stack up against each other relative to the board.

The strategy sunburst shows the frequencies of the possible actions at the current node for the entire range, as well as the actions available at prior decision points in the game. This visual depiction of actions can assist users in learning to assess how prior actions define each player's range, which is a critical skill in GTO.

This table shows the average frequencies and resulting EV for each possible action for the range as a whole. Also shown is the Range EV Regret for each action, which measures the maximum amount of EV that will be lost if a player takes that action with 100% of the hands in the range and can aid in simplifying strategies. EV Regret is standardized by the pot size so each player can set his/her own EV Regret significance threshold based on his/her experience and skill level. Finally, this table shows 'Fold Leverage', which is equal to the percentage of the opponent's range that folds to each bet at the nash-equilibrium.

This table shows the average EV, average equity and equity distribution for each player. EV measures the expected number of chips the player will win on average if it follows the optimal strategies. Equity measures the probability of the player winning or tying at showdown if no further betting occurs. The equity distribution aids in an understanding of overall composition of each player's range (e.g. polarized, capped, condensed, merged, etc.).
