Lesson
Turning a $90 GTO Wizard Report into a Dollar-Value Leak List
Database & MDA Work · advanced · 12 min
Tyler and Eric review a GTO Wizard leak report to separate real recurring mistakes from variance and quantify their cost. The lesson focuses on turn defense with top pair versus weaker pairs, missed river bluffs from the bottom of range, and being too tentative calling four-bets blind versus blind.
Key takeaways
- Do not overfold top pair to a turn bet in single-raised pots; treat those spots as clear calls when you are ahead of bluffs and still have equity versus value.
- Avoid calling too many middle-pair and low-pair hands versus double barrels in single-raised pots, because database results show those calls often lose money.
- When you arrive on the river at the bottom of range and villain checks, look for profitable bluffing opportunities, especially when you have many more nut or strong value combos.
- In blind-versus-blind and button-versus-big-blind four-bet pots, review solver thresholds before folding hands such as pocket nines, ace-jack, or suited broadways to oversized raises.
- Use leak reports by grouping repeated errors and estimating their total big-blind cost rather than focusing on one isolated hand.
