What would entail a larger advantage?
Hello. I was wondering what would theoretically entail a larger advantage in a Hold ‘Em poker game.
1. Knowing your opponent’s hole cards
2. Knowing what the flop, turn, and river cards would be preflop
Additionally, would the information advantage be evaluated differently depending on number of players and stakes?

intuitively i would say 1 because it allows you to know if you have the best hand or not, while 2 only tells you if you're gonna have a really really good or a really really bad hand.
With 1 you could play 100 VPIP anyway, regardless of what you're going to hit
yeh 1.
if lots of people 2. might start to become more relevant
I think it depends on stack depth. If stacks are short enough to shove pre, then (2) is a much bigger advantage.
