One question I’ve been trying to ask myself more often: “What is my opponent actually representing here?”
Instead of just looking at my own hand, I try to build a story around theirs. Does their line make sense? Would they really play a strong hand this way? Or is something off?
Sometimes when you really think it through, the story doesn’t add up—and that opens the door for a call or even a bluff.
Other times, everything lines up perfectly… and it’s a clear fold.
It’s not always easy in real time, but it feels like a big step toward better decisions.
Do you actively think in terms of ranges and stories, or more about your own hand strength?
