The Big Blind
From Poker Ascent: 110,000+ drills across 10 skills, graded against the player type you are facing.
The seat where defense is the skill. You close the action preflop and get a discount, so defend wide against late steals: suited hands, connected hands, most broadways.
The mistake is what happens next: defending wide means playing wide ranges out of position, so the big blind is where check-raising earns its keep. Check-raise boards that hit your defending range (low, connected, paired) against cutoff and button c-bets.
Versus villains: defend wider against LAG stealers (they barrel worse hands afterward) and tighter against under-the-gun opens (that range is real even live).
The big blind loses money at every table; your job is losing the least.
Poker Ascent drills every seat: hundreds of hands where the correct answer is graded against your position and your opponent at the same time.
