1/ Flop: OOP checks their entire range and IP bets 50% pot at a very high frequency. OOP continues by calling all their pocket pairs along with some of their best ace-highs and king-highs with backdoor flush draws.
2/ Turn: On this low turn card OOP is actually meant to donk 25% pot at a reasonable frequency. All the overcards missed. Ace-highs now have additional gutshot equity so OOP bets out small to “protect” their pocket pairs, some flush draws, overcards and gutshots.

1⃣ A High Conviction View.
$DXY (USD Index) was trading around 105, a hard support, which if it holds, I have high conviction it will bounce to 110 in a short time, aka, bullish continuation bias.
With that view, I chose to short #EURUSD and Long #USDJPY

2⃣ Money Management (MM) is 🔑
I deposited $2048 on 08.08.2022, with that fund, I can trade up to 100 lot #EURUSD. But my trade size is only 0.1 to 0.5 lot.
First trade was a loss, neverminded, I tried again the next day and started making some small wins.

Two of my biggest passions have been #poker and #trading. Trading was my first job since 2009. The less known fact - I played poker 500+ nights. There are many similarities between the two. Here is a thread about the parallels to help your trading and poker

1. Keep folding cards. Do not play average cards for too much money. Card selection is everything. Especially true if you are a beginner.
Similarly, in trading, do not do many trades. Be selective. Trade only when you have a good trade idea with many strong reasons

2. Connected to point 1. Be patient. Wait for the right opportunity. Some of the world's best poker players play may be 3% of the cards they get. Some of the best trades I know trade may be 3 or 4 trades in a month. Look at 50 ideas, shortlist 10, and trade may be 2
The global pandemic certainly had an influence on the #Poker industry, which currently experiences a temporary boom with record numbers for live events.
But not everything is as shiny as one might think so bear me out for a little thread during an airport layover.

Many staff (especially dealers) were forced to sit on the bylines for more than 1.5 years, many of which had to take regular day jobs. A big portion of them returned but in the grand scheme of things, it's certainly not the same anymore.
For poker players it didn't matter that much because they could cluck buttons from the comfort of their home. Online poker was booming and took a major hit when the live scene resumed almost business as usual.

In D hat die Debatte um Slots über die Jahre Fahrt aufgenommen und eskalierte nun in Twitch-Deutschland, weil zwei hochnäsige Jungs sich total daneben benommen haben.

2/8) Kuhn Poker is a simple 2-player betting game with three cards (A, K, Q). A single card is dealt to each player. Players take turns betting chips and the player with the higher card wins the chips. If a player folds the other player wins the chips.

3/8) CFR finds the Nash equilibrium with self-play. In each iteration, it calculates the regret of following the current strategy instead of playing each action. Then it updates the strategy with regret matching:
strategy = regret of action/total regret of all actions
