Is Game Theory Optimal practical?
We are trying to make the theoretical practical. No human is able to play GTO poker in
real time, at the table. Game Theory Optimal (GTO) and Minimum Defense Frequency
(MDF) are indisputably mathematically correct, but not easy to use.
If you can't use GTO against random opponents, then you should still take advantage of
GTO. The idea is to discover how to use GTO theory to improve my your win rate, in a
way that is practical to use, vs. conventional wisdom strategy or exploitative play strategy.
What we are researching is practical GTO based alternatives, that can be applied in real-
time, at the table. This can be done by developing ranges away from the table.
We simulated this basic approach and observed improvements in win rates that
astonished us.
Using simulation in 6 max no limit, we have been able to dramatically improve win rate
on every street and every position. We first evaluate hands ( flush draw,Top pair, etc.
then reduce by the calculated MDF, by the hit rate (oversimplification). What remains is
the strongest hole card range that you should continue with (not fold).
PeakHoldem can dramatically improve your win rate.
Every future release of PeakHoldem will increase the accuracy of
opponent play. Unique enough to be patent pending. 62/732,519.
