Inside the Poker Mind of Coach Brad Wilson - Episode 4
#poker#education
I set out to write the best poker book ever and, while that may or may not have come to fruition, I’m fairly certain that it’s the most unique one ever written.
It’s been a long process writing the book which I’m now pleased to share with the world: the Khemset Holistic Poker Codex.
In this three-volume codex, I go through first principles and poker theory before shifting the discussion to my views on philosophy and the nature of reality, ultimately tying them together with the goal in mind of sharing a practical and actionable holistic perspective for poker as well as life more broadly.
I wanted the Holistic Poker Codex to be memorable and feel special, and so I decided to print a limited luxury hardcover collector’s edition of 500 copies, each with a gold ribbon bookmark attached. I am likely to print it as a softcover version with a lower price point in the future if it’s well received, but I won’t be printing this particular version as a hardcover again, so it will remain unique.
It’s funny how writing a book teaches you more about yourself than you might realize going into it. It’s a rewarding and fulfilling process, and one which requires an immense amount of care, attention to detail, and willingness to spend time on tedious tasks alongside the overall bigger-picture creative vision needed to conceptualize and put it together in the first place. I’m very glad I decided to undertake this project and quite pleased to have finished it as well!
The book is set to be delivered to me in around six weeks’ time. I’ve just sent off the manuscript to the printing company and I decided to begin accepting pre-orders now. If you’re interested, check out the link below for more information.
@mobiuspoker@GGPoker honestly its mind boggling the clearest malfeasance data point hasnt been tracked by game integrity across multiple major platforms since day 0.
After recent events, we've open-sourced our superuser detection pipeline. No model training required, and it's available now on GitHub.
We're open to working with operators on implementation and hand review.

Can the war on online poker 'superusers' be won?
Yes it can, say the folks at @QuintAceAI, and all it takes is adopting this open-source playbook and solution.
Here's the plan 👇

Memorizing more solver outputs is not the end game.
Every session you play, you’re going to face many spots you haven’t studied.
What matters is whether you can generalize from what you’ve learned and construct a reasonable strategy in-game.
"I don't want to bet because I might get check raised" isn't enough.
Go one step further.
What hands does villain actually have that want to check raise?
Sometimes the thing you're afraid of isn't really a meaningful part of their range.
The bigger your bet, the stronger your hand needs to be to value bet.
Smaller bets need to be defended more frequently so they get called by a wider, weaker range.
Bigger bets allow Villain to fold more so they continue with a stronger range.
Your sizing (theoretically) has an enormous affect on the range you’re trying to extract value from.
When villain deploys an exploitable strategy, your response doesn’t have to be aggressive.
You can exploit by calling.
You can exploit by folding.
You can exploit by checking.
The mistake creates the opportunity. Your job is to figure out which tool takes advantage of it.
