Operation : Silver star and clear 10NL+ learn full ring

Good job! Keep it up.

start off with a couple of the losing hands. Pleased in a way with not stacking off on this but can't help wondering whether a smaller river bet or checking behind would have been a better line to take.
Interesting that he called the river bet when flush draws could have completed. The line I took on the river was bet fold fully expecting flushes to reraise me but hoping to take the pot there and then. I think check behind would have been the less spewy option though I'd never have known if he'd folded to the bet.

villain was 54/23

some pure spew against a 86/10 over 23 hands . they ain't gonna fold so should have checked down with air. I doubt he had anything either in hindsight but it was early playing against him.

this hand I can't decide if i played it well , could potentially have spewed , or played it horribly (though not as bad as villain).
villain was 23/20/4 over 54 hands. Was thinking that if I hit my diamond or possibly another Q or a K may be good when I called the 4$. With the nut flush draw on the flop should I have just shoved? as it was with the cards as they were I had 24% equity : against a range of 22+,A2s+,KTs+,QJs,JTs,T9s,98s,87s,7d6d,65s,54s,43s,A9o+,KJo+ it was roughly a coin flip on the flop.

felt bad about cutting and running so played another orbit . Play on villains part was questionable .I could easily have been on an over pair or better on the flop and therefore they as far as they could tell they were potentially just on 5 outs or less.

Hey gl with your Operation I'm just going to comment on the hands you posted.

1. Fine, I probably bet river too, he's going to call with a host of Kx hands that you beat.

2. In hand 1 you have a poster and make it 5x, here you make it 4x?
Flop is bad, turn is ok if that's what you planned to do on flop. But vs fish its pretty bad all round.

3. No poster and you 5x it. With these three hands I now presume you 5x AA/KK/QQ/JJ/AK type hands and 4x the rest - exploitable if someone is paying attention. Bet more on flop too drawy - more like $1.20. Bet slightly more on tuirn to set you up a less thyan PSB shove, say $2.30. If he's drawing it's still likley he'll call.

4. Raise more on flop - look atthe pot size, not his bet. I'd raise to somewhere around $2.70 and call it off or shove turn.

5. meh, i could see c/c flop or b/c flop sometimes. Thing is your implied isn't great as people are rarely goignt o be calling big bets when the 4th diamond comes unless they have Qd or something. or they are retarded. Turn is pretty bad imo and considering you c/c $4 on turn you need to make significantly mor eon the river to compensate for the lack of pot odds on the turn. And given the fact the board is goign to be 4flushed it's goign to be hard to get paid if you make a significant bet.

6. Depends how loose the UTG opener is, but sometimes I'm not a great fan of squeezing here - esp if UTG is tight froom UTG. If he's fairly loose then sure squeezing is fine - but you need to look atthe reasons, not just LOL AQs SQUEEEEZE. You're 3b size is too small also with 3 in the pot already.

7. Fine if you think he calls it off with Kx or Asx. I probably just make it 1.70 and calla shove or get it in on a safe turn.

8. I'd bet river, to get value from worse Ax and Qx type hands it's also possible that Kxdd rivered a pair. It's unlikley he has a set/AQ/AK with combinatronics and the fact he only limp/called preflop and didnt raise any street. I would also make my turn bet slightly larger say $3/$3.20.

9. 3x UTG wat - sort out some consistency with your open sizes from all positions no matter what your cards. The flop is pretty drawless so I might just call the flop raise and get in in on the turn. It's pretty unlikey you've been oversetted and reatrds will get it in here with TT and sometime raise hands like 66/77. So I wouldn't want them to fold to a shove, coz ur shoving range will prob be llike QQ+/sets on this dry flop. Villain was obv retarded to getting it in here.

Hey Muzz thanks for the feedback . Generally tend to open 4BB +1 per limper except Btn when its 3BB + 1per limper.

the heater continues : finished the night up $26.40 with the bank roll on $502.38 which is one hell of a comeback considering that on saturday or was it sunday the roll dipped to about $386 briefly . It could have been soo much better if it wasn't for this cooler towards the end of the night.

oh well he had 4 outs and i got the money in good.

will post the rest of the hands tomorrow but was generally happy with my play.

Congrats on the recovery dude, much deserved. See you at the tables soon no doubt.

as usual start with the losses
villain was 50/7/3 and I thought was on a smaller pocket pair and when the river came I thought i had his low pair crushed even if he had hit his set. Didn't figure the flush would have hung around that long.

This was against a 36/20/1 . I've seen her check call down a K3s flopped flush draw that missed and go all in on a TPTK hand on the turn. This is a hand i really need to work some maths on . I hit my set and turn bet is reraised when a flush came in. I took that to mean that she had the flush......could just have had a strong flush draw or possibly even paired the Queen. need to work out whether it would pay to stay in and see if I can boat up.
11 cards for boat on river so 11/46 so 23% of hitting boat on the river.
I would be calling 2.85 to win a pot of 10.40 or 27.4 which would be tight fold unless we factor in some Qx hands.
or should i be calculating putting 2.85 in to win the 7.55 already in the pot 37% easy fold.

Is it reasonable to factor in any TPTK type hands here , but I don't think she'd have reraised her flush draws from the way she played the other hands : variation of hand I posted in BC.

OK , so my best session ever playing nearly 1800 hands and I'm left felling disappointed with the $64 profit I ended up with. This could easily have been my first 100$ session except for some suckouts and getting owned by a 90/0 fish. I had 60$ on one table at one stage and she and the suckouts ended me on about 30$ on that table.

this hand she commits half her stack with 4 outs

anyways ......lots more hands that I could post but meh..........

I generally felt that I played well last night. Kolonel was sposed to join in a sweat session but didn't see him online so just carried on playing and making money. Was back to 4 tabling , but its ffffffing hard to take notes with the input focus contiually getting nicked from the note window...type the note and look up to see it was a waste of time , nothing there and a couple of windows waiting for action.

oh what a week its been.This time last week I was down 10 BI's and wondering what I'd done wrong. Played a shortish session last night for a $47 profit. This means that I've made about 184$ in the last week since the bottom of the trough ( includes a 8$ fpp Bonus though) . It also includes the -$43 session as well when I insisted on donating on made flushs. Heres the last weeks graph.

Ok , so what have I changed.

I think its all started as a result of going through some of the hand historys of people that I've racked up a lot of hands against and seeing what they've shown down and how they've played their hands. Quite a revelation when you look at hand after hand . You get a feel for how they play but its also given me ideas about how I could change how I play so that I don't lose as much and win more.

so what have I changed .

1.
I think I'm cbetting less than I was , actually I've just checked ...I am .....63% before last week , 50% this week.
What ??? you're saying, we've always been told to cbet. I think I'm just cbetting more effectively especially when out of position and I've missed the flop or connected weakly with it when in position. Why bloat the pot ? It may just check round and go for a delayed cbet on the turn or I may connect . If someone comes out betting strongly on the flop and I've got nothing and no strong draws . hell its only 4bbs I'm down ...toss it and win a bigger pot elsewhere.
If someone comes betting weakly at the flop I make a decision whether to call (is it a fish) or fold (normally) or occasionally raise with overcards , draws and a gut feel that the bettor has very little either (rare).
I was going to write a whole spiel about how I think that this has affected how people react to my play but I'm still working it through at the moment. One effect is that I am considerably strengthening my cbetting hands . Consider someone cbetting 90-100% . They only connect with the flop 1/3 of the time so 2/3 of the time they are bluffing.With a strongish hand on the flop it makes it easier to raise them and since they have air 2/3 of they'll fold a lot of the time. On the other hand , by cbetting 50% , I appears that I have a hand 2/3 of the time and bluffs 1/3 of the time so that when I am cbetting I can bet flop turn and river as I have a hand that has connected with the flop. How much I'm betting obviously depends on how well I connected with the flop , how well I think they connected and general reads on the opponent.
I'm further manipulating my cbetting range OOP by check call/check raise depending on opponents . Therefore it appears from my 50 % cbet stat that I hit the flop 2/3 time in reality it may only be half the time as some of the time that I hit the flop I'll be letting aggro players do the betting and getting money in with air thinking that they can bluff me off the pot since they'll have seen me raise pre and having check folded some flops before reraising them either on the flop or turn.

2. I'm altering how I play with regards to other peoples bets as well. I have to thank Jyms for his OP and griffey's advice to him about folding to 3bets should be over 66%. I was hovering around 50% so I'm making a conscious effort to tighten this up. I still don't respect a min 3bet from a fish raising my 40c bet to 70c. I'd be cbetting more than that 30c anyway probably so depending on my hand strengthits either a call or a reraise.

3. After my trip to IRC I've altered how I play my premiums preflop. if I can I'll try and get QQ+ AK in pre. Once the flop has come though . A lot of their strength has weakened . From being a stack off hand they now just become a top pair hand (if that ) so that I will pot control them a lot more and QQ on a AKx flop to action is a pretty easy fold.

4. I've definately altered how willing I am to stack off street by street . The flush hell i had this week has certainly made me slow down against potential flushes. Overall , I think the value lost on winning hands is a lot less than $ lost on losing hands.

5. I'm stealing less 37% now compared to 40% before. It may be a subtle difference but I'm trying not to do it with complete crap anymore unless theyre a 8/6 100% fold to steal and its free money. Before it seemed to be to frequent and before long I was getting 3 bet and with crap 4betting light didn't appeal.

Anyway ,thanks to everyone who has offered advice , theres still a lot of work for me to do on my game (and I must listen to myself more when I make a call expecting to be beaten , more dollars go out to better hands than come in from catching bluffs at this level)

Nice post Keith. Think I need to do some of the analysis that you did after your big downswing. Keep doing what you're doing.

couple of shitty days play..... Sunday I was up $25 before sprewing off 20$ to end up $5 at $575. SImilar story last night , shortish session but QQ<AA and AK <TT all in pre accounted for 2 stacks, and card deadness meant break even over the rest for a net loss of $19 to leave the roll on .
Currently averaging 50 vpps per day so hopefully will retain silver star this month and therefore keep it for august and september. Definately seem to be earning them a lot faster under the new 5x scheme as last month came nowhere near earning enough to have silver star under 'normal' circumstances. I have moved up to 4 tables though so thats having an effect as well.
Definately going to concentrate on my play though. One table last night I was only cbetting 10% . That is way too exploitable but I think partkly affected by having maniacs on the table.

I think our accounts are hooked up to the same doomswitch, yo. I had this month's first negative session last night also. Gogo, 25NL wants you.

booked a 4$ profit after aboiut 1200 hands last night. Was down about 15$ at one stage then one table went apeshit . Was sat to the immediate left of a 98/69/7 over about 90 hands . He was betting and raising every street. JUst called him down several times with flush draws which hit on the river and stacked him twice but it was bloody expensive to get to show down with him and several times TPTK was no good against some random trash that two paired on the river.

edit: scrap this ...seems they just aren't callingthem newvpp anymore

That's what I thought, but are you sure? I've still got the odd one or two that are called New VPP...

wtf at the first hand on this page
don't have a problem with the hand, but I have a problem with bluffing TPTK

I thought I was up against a worse kicker or flush I think and throw in being on a heater and it turned into some lousy river play. followed this up later in the op weith spewing plenty on 'flush' boards .

oops ....nearly had to rescue this op from page 2.
Had a couple of swingy days at the end of last week , up 35$ one day and lost 34$ the next. Then I had a couple of days at the seaside with wife and lad. Took lappy with holdem manager on it planning to study how some of my oponents play in the evenings.
That idea didn't exactly go down to well with wife/in laws so in the end just vegged watching telly one night (snow baths in the antartic don't sound fun) watched a film next night and played links ls against my wife on the lappy the third night so in effect 3 poker free days.
Came back earlier than rest of family to get back to work.....(downside of self employed) and Erpel called in last night and we discussed poker. Straightened out some of my thinking and did some analysis on some of my opponents and played around with filters on my own database.

woooo hooo , finished up $40 to finish with the bank roll over $600 for the first time.Also had the biggest pot of my career so far heads up 300bb deep for a 58$ pot. I'm going to post it in BC as I don't know whether it was sensible or stupid play.

ok so its been a weird week. Was drifting downwards on he bankroll . Night before last started at $553 was hitting hands left right and center and was sitting at $615 at one stage before finishing at 595$.
Then last night none of my hands seemed to stand up and shut the tables down early after dropping 4 Buy In s so roll is back at 553$. 800 vpps for the month so far though so hopefull on course for retaining silver star this month.

WTF .....seems like I've gone into meltdown mode. No matter what I seem to do I just keep running intoi total fish with better hands.yesterday was up 30$ at one stage before finishing down 5$ . Last night was just a disaster zone , Finished down $64 .Heres the graph for the month so far and the effect the last couple of sessions have had. Bankroll is now down to about 480$.

ok this was the damage and could really do with some feedback on these hands.
Villain was a 21/20 and 5% 3bet and had been stealing a lot.Pre thought it was time to try and rein back his steals

Take all this with a grain of salt, I am a self proclaimed noob and my thoughts is simply what I would do and by no means does it mean that it's right. Razz

1: You say this guy was stealing tons, but was he positionally aware? Because UTG+1 raise is usually a pretty easy call with JJ with most villains for me. With a read that he's super aggro pre-flop I might re-raise but I'm definitely folding to his 4bet. You're pretty much playing for set value and you don't have the odds for that call.

2: I'm folding the flop. I don't mind the first call so much, TP2K + gutshot is good enough imo but after the re-raise you gotta know you're beat. It's multiway, there's an OOP raise and your call. This guy's re-raise is indication of something big (unless you have some sort of very specific read). I can't see him having anything you can beat, so your TP2K is useless and a gutshot isn't worth calling anymore. You're getting 1/3 odds or so on the 3bet call with your gutshot which is decent with implied odds but there's Qs all over your opponent's ranges. Then turn it's a snapfold.

3: Yeah I fold pre as well. This is a good one for ranges, imo. Not sure what villain's VPIP is here but he called your UTG raise, then re-raised a super dry flop. Lets see... if he's our average Joe, his ranges might look something like this:
Pre: 22-JJ, AK-AJ, KQ
Flop: AQ, JJ-88, 44 - your equity is around 53% vs this range. Depending on how aggressive he is you could still leave KQ, in there, but it doesn't change your equity much.
Turn: AQ, TT, 88, 44 - Again, depending on aggression, JJ could still be in his range. Without it, you're down to under 30% equity. With JJ in his range you are around 45% equity. I think this is a clear fold at this point.

Well, those are my thoughts, feel free to critisize them, since I learn tons from giving feedback as well.

Keep it going man, remember it's all about playing with a clear mind, your A-game 100% - if you don't feel you're playing 100% then drop it, go play some donkaments if you really want to play poker or something. Don't try to force the wins, it only does the exact opposite.

Hey maybe we can set up a sweat session sometime, it could help the both of us. Let me know if you're interested. GL, keep your chin up. Kick ass.

yeah ...would love a sweat session ...I'm on every night so hit me with a pm when you are free.......doing one with kolonel tonight at 11pm ,either join in or do it another night.

Villain in last hand was 54/3 . I think with the real fish I have trouble accepting that they might have a hand..

couple of hands against a 77/21; He was regularly showing up with second or bottom pair and sometimes bluffing air.

Heh, first and second hands are the same one, I assume a copy paste error. I was all like, wow, these hands are so similar and against the same player, what are the odds?! Razz

1. Anyways, first/second hand is fucked up, I think river is b/f and I might even check the turn. Nasty though, when the fish run goot, they run goot. Oh and also, KTo on the SB I'd either raise to isolate the whale or fold. But I'm really tight from the SB so it may be fine.

2. Second one is a good fold I think, I would have c/f or c/c a small bet on the turn and try to hit the straight. I don't think leading turn gets you anywhere since you would really only be getting folds from hands you have beat.

Ship your MSN/Skype or whatever you guys use plx! I'll defo join in tonight. Using teamviewer?

Meh, fuck, meant to edit and hit quote. \o/ Post count whoring ftw.

a blog is the best post whore going lol .......fixed hand 2 and pm'ed MSN

sweat = teamviewer/skype combo?

let me know if advice from a 6-max relative fish might come in handy - now that i've decided that i don't play without my a-game i have all this time when i can't play normal stakes - so sweat sessions, vids, study, mtt/sng micro-abuse, plo, etc have more place!

In that hand where you hold TT on Jh3c8h9h I would probably be checking the turn.

Sweat session last night with Rob (Kolonel) and Gobbatino went well.Alltogether during the actual session I probably finished up about 6$ . Carried on playing afterwards and got rivered set over set on one hand but ran well the rest, finally hit some other sets and finished up .
1 table I had a complete pig of a player . 78/29 8.6 post flop aggression , 19% 3bet pre. Basically , you had to hit your hand else you would be all in with air, and play at the table was specifically skewed to combat this player.It didn't help that he kept showing up with a hand but one of the hands he didnt bet hard I looked him up with just to find out what he wasn't playing hard.
This was one hand that gave us trouble. I had gone to limp calling hands that had big hand potential pre but generally was playing extremely tight ....13/9 which is unheard of for me. $0.05/$0.1 No Limit Holdem

So yippee dooo for him , he hit his 4 outer on the river and we had a chorus or WHAT????NOOOOOOOOO.Whether he would have folded to a turn shove is questionable , we did see him folding but not when he'd put big bets in on flop and turn.

Again we had a mini debate on whether to bet or check the turn. It was very unusual for him to check the turn and seeing what he had I think we made the right choice in checking it back. It gave him a chance to catch up and make a hand and once he had any piece of the board and our 'weakness' on the river he had been happy to get it in against other players.

All in all , I think it was a pretty solid session, and Gobbatino was surrised I think by how easy it is to get laggy stats without playing total crap by stealing relentlessy against the right people and not continuing with the trashj hands when people play back. I'm happier than I was yesterday and the bankroll is giving a mini psychological boost for being back over the $500 mark at $508.
Vpp is going to be a close run thing but i'm fairly sure that i should be able to retain silver star. Last nights long session helped, and I now need 212 vpps in 5.5 sessions allowing for the reverse sweat with gobbatino so its looking like i need an average of about 40 per day and the days i've actually played this month I've averaged 45 vpps per day.

Hand 1 - 3-bet flop. As played check-shove turn. Out of position you're shoving any river - and maniacs are more likely to fold to aggression on the river than any other street. Get it in on the turn and he's calling middle pair.

Hand 2 - See how differently life plays in position. You get to control the hand. I prefer raising the flop, as played turn check behind is fine as is river shove.

Hand 3 - Pre-flop good. Raise flop cos you're ahead here most of the time and hate overcards. Turn call as played, you have middle pair and showdown value so you want him checking the river - ten outs (if you're lucky) against a call doesn't make for a good shove. What's his calling range? Does the shove still make sense?

hand from the end of my sunday night session that put me down to $470. Had been paying off slow played sets all night either side of watching Gobbatino in a sweat session.

TT hand is well played, nice work.

I think a big factor in my swinginess is that i have been hitting that damm call button when I get raised on the turn or river. Its great when they are bluffing and the graph shoots up when they have a hand though I'm usually calling because i have a hand , just not so good a hand. then the graph plummets.
Last night I tried to exercise some self control , folding top pairs to reraises . Results were less swingy but i'm not sure if opps were catching on that I could fold and were whacking in a big bluff on the end. Finished up 10$ . could have been better but couold have hbeen a lot worse. I'll post up some of the folds later see whether people think that i was just being tooo nitty .

I do this a lot as well.

I mark someone as being capable of attacking weakness and stealing. Then I put money in, then check and give him an opportunity to steal - and then I see myself making hero calls.

I've seen a few observations that relate and that I need to remember more when I play:
1) Some people are perfectly happy to bluff a huge range when first in one any street - but will never never bluff raise.
2) Some people are perfectly happy to bluff when the pot is small/medium sized but will never never bluff into a big pot

When I don't have a solid read but a few stats to go buy and I try to determine whether an opponent is likely to be bluffing this river I check his overall aggression in relation to his street by street aggression - if his aggression increases street by street he's more likely bluffing on later streets. If his vpip is huge but his aggression is modest that can still be a big range with bluffs in it. If his won at showdown is very low he might bluff rivers a lot. If his river bet % is high he is likely to bluff rivers a lot.

But yeah, often enough when I make that call I don't have a clear idea if I'm +EV and typically that makes it a losing play.

ok the folds....

villain was a 32/17/2.1 agg and was somewhat of a station . Whenever I raised he always seemed to call. Flop bet seems small but I was trying to control the pot somewhat with top pair crap kicker.Turn bet he needs an Ace to continue.. dam hes called ....WTF am I doing with that river bet? It screams weakness and all it is going to be any good against is air ?

Is retaining Silver star worth playing when you're off your A game?

TT - Flop is a clear raise vs. almost every villain

AJ - You said it

33 - cbet flop plz

A3s - "I thought I might be ahead but I had outs to improve" is not a reason to bet (or are you talking about after he shoves?). Is he calling your turn bet with worse? If not turn is a check behind.

QQ - Fine, although I may bet slightly less on the river

QQ - yep

K4s - wtf are you doing preflop? Why are you donking this flop? Turn call is fine with 15 outs it seems close but I think you need to win ~$2 on the river every time you hit for call to be profitable.

thanks for the feedback Badgers.

last nights session.

nearly broke down through the $400 level but I think last nights session kicked a few things back into my brain. Tried to play a lot tighter at the start and to steal a bit less but that didnt work out to well.
In the middle of the session things seemed to click,was cbetting my pre raises a lot more and had some hands and generally felt happy with the way the rising part of the graph went. Upped my 3 betting and One table had a guy on my left who was constantly3betting my button raises. 4bet him with JJ and stacked him and that quietened him down a lot. Couple of coolers at the end with villains hitting rivers but I think I've turned things around a bit . Identified some areas that I need to work on .
Roll is now at 429$ and need another 32 VPPs to retain silver. Should do it but an early morning start tomorrow so won't get so many hands in tonight. Won't be playing anything like the number of hands next month because I'll be busy at work .

oh lordy. Still lagging it up i see.

Hi keith/guys... i'm back... i think!

hey Andy ,,,,,,good to see you back , as you can see its been a roller coaster for me this month but you'll love the rate that you get vpps on the new 6 max scheme.

woooo looks like i got momentum in the correct direction. 754 hands for a profit of $51.40. I got cards but I also felt that I played well ....laid down some top pair hands , folded some AK multiway hands that missed flop and would have missed by the river in a big pot. did fairly well at getting an extra bet out of someone.

I also passed through 1200 Vpps tonight so feel pleased that I actually managed to achieve a 'proper' silver star as opposed to the previous uk special one especially 3 or 4 tabling 10NL. Managed to do it in just over 23k hands.and its also my most hands in a month so far.

heres the session graph.

this includes some of last nights as well , so its just the last 750 hands .

since early morning start loading lorry then nowt to do , fired up the tables and did an hour and a half session. 400 hands for $20 profit and the bankroll back over 500 at $500.88.
It seems weird to me that i have big downswings , play through them whilst trying to work out what i'm doing wrong and then kick into a massive heater to recover and hopefully move on up to a higher baseline on the bankroll and then churn.
I definately feel that i was playing way to passively on my last downswing and that allowed villains to catch their cards on turn and river cheaply to draw out on me , coupled with some bad luck and coupled with some incredibly bad play on som individual hands.The upside is that I have now learnt how to make money by folding (hopefully) .
this hand just screamed over pair or set to me , or was it too nitty to fold

another disaster night last night 349 hands and down 50$.quite a few coolersand i was getting reraised left right and centre, folding a lot but I just ended up shutting down . And contemplating ....for most of today as well leading to the next post .

hey Keith, damn your swings. They're as high as they are low and vice versa! Me, i never ever ever get 10nl heaters... but then the same goes for extended coolers. I do get periods of only winning tiny amounts, that's my poker karma.

Say, could you be a doll and pm me some details about that 6max points thingy you mentioned?

did you do the UK and Ireland freeroll? i did, just finished about 3500th out of 10.4k people to win $8. Are are MTT that good? paying first 60% of players?
