Hello! We have received several questions about what would
happen in our timing tell studies if we filter out the player pool to only
include the more common ‘regular’ players.
If you are unfamiliar with our timing tell studies, you can find
them here:
Before we show the filtered results, we would like to
discuss our theories of what to expect.
Regulars playing many
tables are likely to spend as little time possible with easy decisions and will
save longer actions for difficult or more important decisions.
Weaker players playing
few tables have more time for each decision and will likely have a more
unpredictable timing pattern.
If you recall our theories from the previous posts, they are
all based on how a common regular plays.
Therefore,
we expect our timing tell studies to be more accurate and more useful against
the common regular.
Below are the results from the previous timing tell study “3Bet
Success Rate in Relation to Timing Ranges”:
Regulars who took a long time to RFI folded to 3Bets about
10% more in comparison to the overall player pool. The quick RFIs fold to 3b%
did not change and this is not a surprise. A weaker player who performs a very
quick RFI is still likely to be stronger.
Now the results from the previous timing tell study “4Bet
Success Rate in Relation to Timing Ranges”:
Regulars who performed quick 3Bets folded to 4Bets about 12%
less often in compared to the overall player pool. Regulars who performed
longer 3Bets folded to 4Bets around 6.5% more often in comparison to the
overall player pool.
Regardless if you are an active table selector, or you play
in Zoom games, regulars will always be around you. Attacking common regular’s
timing leaks is a good way to improve your win-rate and confidence, especially
if you are uncomfortable participating in traditional “reg wars”.
