MTT Database Review

As promised here is the "80 % missclick, 20 % angleshoot" solution.

How to play against a missclick?

50bb deep, 8-max. You minraise UTG, but BTN doesn't notice your open and tries to openraise himself. Since saying "raise" is binding, he's forced to min-3bet to 3bb with his ~55% BTN opening range.

Here's how GTOW responds. No calls, and we jam half of our opening range for 50bb!

But that's assuming it was an honest mistake.

What if we're only 80% sure? The other 20% of the time, he's deliberately angleshooting with QQ+/AKs.

How would you adjust your strategy?

QQPK Bots Update (October 20 – November 6 database)

Out of the 11,469 bots I reported on October 15, around 8,600 were still active during this period. They accounted for 2.9 million player hands out of a total of 4.2 million in the sample (69%). And that's just the previously identified bots — I haven't even tried looking for new accounts.

Some of the bots seem to be limping again (after a period when they had mostly stopped), but much less frequently than before.

Their limping range remains heavily focused on 99+, AQo+, and AJs+.

They now heavily favor 3x preflop opens. Roughly 70% of their opens are 3x, even under 20bb effective. The rest are 2x or 4x, extremely rarely anything else.

Their 3-bet sizings also seem to have changed. Especially OOP, they now go either very small (e.g. 2.5x 3-bets from the BB when deep-stacked) or very large (usually 11bb vs. a minraise or 16.5bb vs. a 3x open).

I got in touch with someone from QQPK's Risk Control team. (I had to reach out myself — apparently, nobody on their side thought it might be a good idea to contact the guy who identified all these bots.)

I was told they're still investigating, conducting thorough KYC checks, and that they can't simply ban players:

"based purely on statistical data anomalies without definitive backend proof".

Most of you are not betting big enough.

You are also not betting small enough.

Stop betting 33-75 % everywhere.
