I´m still stuck. I cashed out for 1.3k to go on vacation and pay bills and shit, BR hovers around 10k. I had a great time at the sea, visiting a friend of mine whilst there was a big festival. Parties every night, incredibly nice weather, beach volleyball and surfing contests. We were drunk all day and all night, were partying till the sunrise and I went swimming in the northern sea around 4am, which was nasty cold 9°C. Since things in gambling aren´t really going the way I want fortune let me hit the lady-jackpot. Yawn!

Poker goes up and down and I cant see any improvement. Idk whats wrong, but I cant get a grasp of all those new concepts I´m trying to implement. Maybe I should focus more on one limit, atm I´m playing NL100 and NL200 FR, NL100 6max, NL100 HU and NL/PL50 2-7 TD. Its just...6max tables are tough in the afternoon, while they become very soft later, full ring tables are soft in the afternoon and become a rockfest/shortstack party at night.


Today´s hand: Squeezing is fun. BTN was very active, openeing almost every button/CO but didnt like to play 3bt pot without a hand, SB is a sucky weak/passive type of guy, I haven´t done anything yet. I´m sure 3betting here with almost atc is profitable.

Today´s random thoughts:


Heads up:

I played two villians tonight, one whose button opener were 6x and another who opened for only 2x from the button. I realized how I tended to call the 2x raises lighter and the 6x raises tighter than I would vs std 3.5x opener. Tho it seems intuitive, it´s wrong. Why is that? What are the factors to consider, when forming our ranges for 3betting, calling and folding? Villians range for calling, folding equity, stack sizes, opponents postflop tendencies, latest history, our image and whatnot. I don´t line "pot odds" among the most important factors and thats why adjusting our subrange for calling is probably wrong. I always seem to have insights when the vodka is flooding, take it with a grain of salt.

Poker:

In position, versus aggro small blinds in BvB, rather call and float wider than 3betting lighter. Make sure to keep your 3betting range generally tight and polarized. Villain folds most of his range to a 3bet and calls usually pretty strong, given him being OOP. But, he will fire air on a lot of flops and fold to a raise/turnbet. Ask yourself, who is harder to play? a guy constantly 3betting or a guy calling wide IP vs your weak range? Bingo. Be aware when he starts 2 barreling more.


My progress:

I´m stuck. Would be a great new headline. I´m running fine at 6max now but can´t get a hold of full ring and heads up tables. It´s all a mess. Red numbers in PT tilt me, I feel the urge to play any game I already plaed until the numbers are green.

Agree on #1, just wanted to hear other opinions. If he were known to bluff missed hearts/QT c/c might be best, but here I´d really prefer to b/f.

#2 is meh. I tried to, but couldn´t find a reason to raise anywhere in this hand, except maybe the flop.Thing is, once we see a turn there is absolutely no weaker hand in his range that would pay a raise. On river, a 2 barreled AQ might have caught up, but chances are minimal.

On #1, I don't think you should bet/fold here. There are too many hands that beat you: AJ/KJ/QJ/JT/J9/T8/99/33 and what do you do if villain pushes?
There are no better hand that will call you (except maybe really badly played KK/QQ)
I think that you're much better off hoping for villain to bluff you on the river. He might put on a FD that missed on the river.

Up to river, for me you represent: AA/KK/QQ/99/33/JJ/J9/FD/T8 and maybe AJ.
If you bet you'll represent 99/33/JJ/T8/AJ/J9 and maybe missed FD and AA. What do you think villain will call you with?
You represent a too strong range for villain to call with worse (of course unless he's a real station and there was no history between you 2)

ok, so everyone thinks bet/fold is bad. What's so much better?

We can check/fold, but that's bad because we throw money away vs. draws, etc.
we can check/call, but then we're paying more than we would if we bet/fold but not gaining enough extra from the hands we beat.
we can push, but then we lose more vs. better hands but gain nothing from hands we beat.

bet/fold.

Damn it. Just got up and realized, that I didnt hit the submit button last night. My game continues to run like a rollercoaster. I´ve been on a sick hot run on 6max tables since I moved there and made 18 buy ins in 6k hand, am breaking even on 200NL FR over 60k but am a solid winner at 100NL FR over 100k+ since the beginning of this OP. Its weird, since I really can´t figure out whats wrong. The transition from 100NL to 200NL should cause such a large drop, particularly since todays 200NL regulars consist of like 35% guys with whom I played 100NL before. Guess I´m just running bad and have a serious tilt problem. See here:

#1 13/9 type of guy. Weak ass 3bet due to not activating numpad. Felt like I had to push after inviting him to 4bet light

#4 This hand gives me a headache. Villian is nittish 12/7 and he´s a true nit for life. I´ve played like 30k hands of 100NL FR with him and I´ve never seen him get out of line. Stations like me dont fold a set, tho I really coudnt figure out a hand beside AA/JJ and a dumb AJ that goes for deep stacks at this point. I´ve been fairly aggro and he didnt 3bet me once oop.

La di da. I start getting comfortable with playing so many different games and I slowly get a feeling for shorthanded tables. Heads up kinda sucks, mostly due to mean coolers at the wrong time.

#1 Sorry for the raw format, wt seems down. Villian plays fairly TAG preflop and gets tricky/spewy postflop. I have a not on him that says "bluffing off whole stack on weak fd + scary board".

Yes, but what range does he call 3bets with? How much are you 3betting? It is hard to comment since HU has so many plays decided by metagame and flow.
This seems like a fold to me, despite the terrific odds his minraise is offering you. You can only feel good about hitting a 9 as you are probably only a little better than 50/50 with his range after hitting the str8, depending upon how many FD's you put in his range. The 3bet makes it that much more likely that he has an Ace in his FD too.
I would also think if he's trying to blast you off a pot he'd do it with a bigger raise. How'd he play the baby FD before? Push? Minraise?

Ppl fold mid pp´s very rarely to 3bets and I believe he´s raising a huge % of his range on this flop.

I finally won money again! I dont know how much I´m up exactly, but I´m slowly recovering my losses on FR tables and I run really good at 6max. I gave 1/2 6max games a shot and so far it´s all good. We´ll see how long before I start whining again and move down. BR broke $12k for the first time last night, according to my BRM plan it´s time for 2/4 soon, but I dont feel ready for that yet. If you haven´t seen it yet check out my favorite hand of this month. I´m going downtown, looking for a new office chair.

Im playing without HUD, villian is kinda nitty and was in line so far. Folding seems to exploitable, do we have a plan for the turn when we call, do we move in now?

1st hand looks standard

Last one, I think getting setted here is pretty exploitable, too, so we have to be able to get out with our stack. Would it make sense to raise to like 90 and fold to more action?

Update:

- I´m running sick hot on 6max tables

- Cake´s 1/2 games soft and I´m comfortable playing these

- iPokers 1/2 FR games have me psyched out, for some reason I can´t play there. I´m running bad, I´m playing way worse

- iPokers 0.5/1 FR are ez and I´m 16-tabling these

- BR cracked 12k

Oh well, my wrist hurts worse than before. Went to the bike park yesterday, now that everything is fixed and new parts have arrived I was extremely trail horny. Right on my first descent I took the freeride line with loads of drops, hips and kickers all the way down the hill. I choose a nicely flowy line and came to that drop with about 2.5m height and as Im popping off over the edge I realize that Im way to fast, coming not even close to whats supposed to be the landing area. Anyway, the ground comes closer and I prepare to take a hard impact, as the terrain is quite flat there, my frontwheel lands right before a bump, stopping immediately, I go over the handle bar and find myself somwhere off track with a hurting chest and wrist and dirt in my mouth.

Hospital, xray, doc finds fractures in the left wrist and middle hand (they get your xrays nowadays right on their monitor, being able to zoom in and out, inverting colours and whatnot). Doc asks me to come back today at 930am, because she isnt sure. I´m sooooo fucking hung over today, yet I forced myself to get up early and talk to another doc. The nurse shows me a room and asks me to wait a couple of minutes for the chief physician. ONE FUCKING HOUR LATER the nurse wakes me up, since the doc is about to arrive. Second diagnosis says the arent any fractures, just a heavy contusion. Lucky me.

Yay. My goal for this month is to make $5k. In order to achieve that goal (and to get better as a player, now that everyone knows I´m a donk) I gotta work more on my game and put more time into HH review. I´m gonna focus on my 6max game, in the end getting better at 6max will improve my full ring game immensly, basically the money spots in FR are LP aggression, blinds and 3bet pots, all the things I gotta improve at 6max even more. I already put in two sessions today, 4k hands of 200NL FR and maybe 1.5k hands at 200NL 6max, I´m not sure if I should play a third session or not. In the meantime I´m gonna sum up the hands I put up for discussion in the SH forum. All these hands were possible spews or just bad play and most of the comments I got helped me tremendously, big up to everyone who took the time to look over my hands. All these hands were on my mind for a couple of days, this is a colection mostly for myself to see where I´m not only playing bad but my thoughts were plain wrong.

#1
Our friend runs 12/7/1.8 over a decent sample. Station that I am I called down, tho really couldnt figure out a hand beside AA/JJ he´d go for deep stacks with. I´ve been active and he didnt 3bet me once oop.

BB bets $35, Hero calls $35

River: Three of Hearts ($120.5, 2 players)

My thoughts on this hand were like: "I can´t fold here ever, yet I can´t find a reason to raise turn or river"

nutsinho wrote:
he's probably not a robot so he could somehow be bluffing here or overplaying something weird, which makes this a calldown. I think folks saying to raise here arent really thinking about it enough though. 12/10 isnt gonna show up with AJo much here imo.


pocketfours wrote:
If you put him on a range of JJ/AJs, then you have 40% equity on the river when you need only 31% to call. That makes the river a pretty easy CALL, but if you put him on the same range on the turn, then I guess you should FOLD there.

Adding AA with a 33% weight to his range makes your equity drop enough to fold the river.


griffey24 wrote:
You may be ahead of AJ or A5, you may be behind AA/JJ. If you win, he got coolered, and if he wins you got coolered. It's a wash in the long run.

I'd imagine this turn decision is pretty neutral EV against a nit.




#2Villian plays a taggy game, very active in the CO/BTN and hasn´t done anything dumb yet. I´ve been 3betting quite a bit and gave up most of the time when I got called and missed.

I´ve been 3betting quite a bit and gave up most of the time when I got called and missed.


if you've been busted 3betting light out of blinds, it's time to tighten up a little bit. In general, I don't like the 3b with A5 at all as a huge portion of his calling range are aces and pairs, making your hand dogshit and a leak. I'd much rather see you do this with SC's then A5. 89, 910 hit more flops and have some deception value. A5 is dominated too much when it hits and is worthless when you miss most of the time. I'd only 3b this hand if opp was loose pf, passive flop and folds to many cbets




#3BTN is kinda weakish, calling a lot of flops and turns, but folded to river aggresion before. I dont think he will ever bluff this river, we have some SD value vs his range tho. I think chances are good I get him off 6x/77, maybe 88. If so, how much to bet?

If you would double barrel KK/QQ here, then I'd imagine you'd be shoving KK/QQ a good amount on this river too, and expect to get called by worse full houses (and obv sometimes quads)

This is really bad, man. You're supposed to bluff when you're pretty sure villain doesn't have a good hand. This guy probably has quads more often than he has 77-88 6x. Given how passive he is, he'd probably call preflop with AQ-AT Ax Diamond and play all 20 of those combos exactly like this postflop. Plus he might not even fold the 77 type stuff that you want him to.

Side notes: The doctors still have no fucking idea whats wrong with my hand. Went to the hospital again today, doc #3 took off the cast, which already starts to smell very bad, looked at the xrays and told me there isnt any fracture, then looked at my hand and said "well I´m not sure". Gotta wear the cast until friday, if the bulge wont get better I´ll get a ct. Fuck. Heading out now to the bar, I´m aiming at getting wasted quickly, maybe I´ll post some stupid drunken shit later. Fingers crossed the ladies wont get turned off from the smell thats crawling out of the cast.

Hand 1: Nice read! Wink
Hand 2: Unless you have a deep 3betting history with villain I think the 3bet call is pretty bad.

I can understand you could do this if you have a deep 3bet history with villain. You could do this once to trap other villains on the table in the future, but that's it. Calling even IP with this hand would just make you lose money otherwise.

Villian was limping a lot and I´ve raised his limps a whole lot before. He insta 3bet this time, which is usually a frustrated 89s/55-type of hand. I called and planned on bluff shoving any A/K/Qxx flop, being pretty sure he almost never hits a TP on those boards. Probably its still a spew tho.

Leak

Paying attention to the wrong spots. Thinking about the wrong hands.

XTR1k (9:19:08 PM): shoving gives us 40% equity vs {AK,AA,KK} and we bet 22 to win 52 which is almost 0ev
XTR1k (9:20:57 PM): calling and jamming a non A/K-flop would win 14 75% the time and losing 22 25% the time
XTR1k (9:21:36 PM): its close but assuming he has JJ now and then your line seems to be the more profitable
XTR1k (9:22:12 PM): still, its close and thats what i was writing about
XTR1k (9:22:41 PM): so many players spend half their time and even more anlyzing hands like this
XTR1k (9:23:11 PM): the big pots get all our attention, cuz there´s so much money in the middle
XTR1k (9:23:31 PM): while in fact, these spots dont have a big impact on our winrate
XTR1k (9:24:23 PM): when we play a 100B pot, most of the time we are either flipping, get coolered or cooler the villian
XTR1k (9:24:42 PM): not a big deal in terms of ev
XTR1k (9:27:16 PM): and while we´re timebanking and letting our brain smoke if we should call villians shove, we miss a lot of opportunities to steal blinds, cbet blindly a 78Tdd flop OOP or miss to represent the turned A after out cbet got called
XTR1k (9:29:12 PM): afterwards we´re posting our biggest pots won/lost at weaktight, think about it and ignore all those small and medium pots, that have a possible huge ev, but relatively small net outcome
XTR1k (9:29:51 PM): sorry, i was trying to put that in words for 20 minutes and now its coming
XTR1k (9:31:25 PM): yep
XTR1k (9:31:41 PM): and thats where I´m suboptimal
freechus9 (9:31:50 PM): mastering them first is more important than the medium pots
freechus9 (9:32:12 PM): because they are arguably easier
XTR1k (9:32:24 PM): of course, cuz going on tilt would be huge -ev
freechus9 (9:32:37 PM): once we pin those pots down then we focus on the smaller ones
freechus9 (9:32:37 PM): yea
XTR1k (9:32:44 PM): but in terms of ev, they are almost irrelevant or at least 80% of them

Hand 1: I like it!
Hand 2: As your hand is quite transparent. Most of the time I think we'll see a set/2pair here. Unless villain is watching TV at the same time or is a donk and was trying to push you out of the pot with a FD.
Hand 3: I play the same.
Hand 4: As played I also call. But it sucks as I think he has often a set or is trying to push you off the pot (if he's very aggro)

Thanks for the input jimmy, I agree with mostly. IIRC, villian in hand 2 was a total donk, ready to stack off here with any ace and FD.


I don´t know what´s going on, but I´ve been running pretty good in 6max games lately. Don´t praise the day, before the sun goes down, but I think talking to a lot of good players, studying Leggo videos and reading thru the web and cutting my tables down to 5 and having a time limit of max 2 hrs have improved my performance tremendously (sp?). Could be I´ve found the webs softest 1/2 games, could be I´m just running sick hot (no doubt that I am), but I can say with full confidence that I haven´t spewed incredibly bad or made really stupid plays for 15k hands now ( or at least I didn´t lose big pots without having really good reasons for what I did.). I´ve turned off my HUD, only taking a peek in really close situations to the pop up stats. My stats vary largely from one table to another, indicating, that I´m thinking at least a bit about things other than my cards and the location of the button. I´m kinda curious how much I will whine, complain and lose confidence again when this hot run is over and how I will react to not making a huge amount of money in a very short time when the tides turn.
