Default Re: Suboptimal strategy 6a)

Here's the surprizing best counter-strategy that I get:

B bluffs [0,5/8]
limp-folds [5/8,17/20]
limp-calls [17/20,1]

I get a value for B here of 783/800, or almost $1 (=SB) per hand.

B never value-raises here! His bluffs actually make a profit, so he only limps when his expected profit exceeds the profit of bluffing. If he were to value-raise at a value below 3/4, he would be losing more when A raises. And if he value-raises above 3/4, he can just let A raise for him.

Translated into poker hands, we already know those in the top 3/8 and 1/4. The only ones we don't know are those above 17/20 = 85%. Those are: 33-AA, A4s-AKs, A7o-AKo, KTs-KQs

Has anyone here ever tried a strategy like that against a moderately tight opponent heads-up?
