opposed to our opponent’s strategy. In other words, if the tables<br />
were turned, would either of us have played the hand differently?<br />
The answer in this situation is most likely “No.” We both would<br />
have gotten the money in preflop. Since there is no difference in<br />
our strategies, neither of us won or lost reciprocal-bucks in this<br />
hand. The time will come when we have AA, and the villain<br />
will have KK, and the hand will most likely play out very<br />
similarly. Our reciprocal-bucks were $0.<br />
Let’s take a look at all four of those results.<br />
• Real-bucks - $2,000<br />
• Sklansky-bucks - (-$360)<br />
• G-bucks - $600<br />
• Reciprocal-bucks - $0<br />
One of the main points I want to make in this section is to not be<br />
discouraged when your opponent flips over his hand and you are<br />
in a position where you have bad equity. Our job is to do the<br />
best we can gathering information about the villain’s strategy in<br />
order to create a range. Sometimes we run into the strongest part<br />
of that range. Sometimes we run into the weakest part of that<br />
range. Sometimes we didn’t have his specific hand in our<br />
assumed range at all. <strong>That</strong>’s poker, and we have to enjoy the<br />
ride.
