Mixing And Randomization In Modern Poker · S8E4

In the previous episode of the podcast, we discussed how GTO requires mixing. Typical solutions returned by solvers include using multiple bet sizes in a given spot, with each size being used at a specific frequency. While this is all very well in theory, how does one handle mixing in practice? If GTO tells you to bet pot 30% of the time, and half-pot 70% of the time, what do you actually do when the action is on you? The answer is we must randomize. How to randomize to maximize win-rate is the topic of this episode, meant for intermediate to advanced players.
