Message: [QUOTE="Effexor, post: 634497, member: 11100"] Yes you are understanding this concept. Playing lots of hands, and watching people (getting reads as to what type of cards they play) is the best way to practice. Reviewing hand histories and understanding position will help too. Some examples: Someone with a VPIP of 5% is probably only playing AA, KK, QQ, AK. A small stack in a SNG, with an M of 2 that pushes all in, well his range is so big that calling in the BB whens it's folded to you with a K9o isn't all that bad. What I've done in the past is watch all hands, even ones that I'm not involved in and try and call the hands outloud. It's all very read dependent though so keep that in mind. There are people that will play top pair with a 3 kicker like the absolute nuts. Generally speaking the really poor players are the hardest to put on a range of hands. [/QUOTE]
