    Default 50nl advice

    So i moved to 50nl and have around 80k hands played w/ just 1ptbb/100hands and its obvious is not what i was hoping for. as most of you know i am a tight straighforward ABC player and that worked for me up to the 50nl.

    Biggest problem i see ( there are more i am sure but this the obvious one in my opinion) in my play at the 50nl is the 3bet spots and 4bet spots.

    OOP i dont flat 3bets w/ anything else but 22-QQ if i get at least 15:1, if i get less, i even fold QQ.

    IP ( when i get blinds 3 betting me) i flat w/ AJs, AQs sometimes besides PP.

    my 4bet range is just AK, AKs, KK+ and i always fold to a 5bet ( besides AA obvious) and even fold KK sometimes if i dont feel he can 5bet worse.

    i only 3bet QQ+, AK and from the blinds i add Axs and that all.


    for the last 10k hands i started 3betting AJo, AQo,( i call PFR w/ AQs, AJs,) TT+, AK when i am LP vs MP/EP and just QQ+, AK when i am MP vs EP and in the blinds i started 3betting Kxs also.

    as for flatting 3bets, OOP i changed nothing, but IP i started flatting SC, suited broadways and ocasional some Axs.

    i have seen some improvements , but i dont know if its because of a good run or because they are good changes.


    i am asking your advice in my 4betting range, my 4bet flatting range , my OOP 3bet flatting range and if changes i made in my 3bet/flatting 3bets IP range are ok. we assume all this plays are vs the average 50nl player, not the extremes ( nits or maniacs). any advice from 50nl+ winning players is welcome in any part of the 50nl game not just 3bet/4bet spots.
    All posts are just my own opinion about a hand or a general situation... not advices on how you should play...

    do some maths and figure out certain ranges play against other ranges and you'll be fine.

    sounds like you're playing too static of a game. Figure out the regs...which to widen your ranges & bluff, which to tighten etc.

    This this this. At 50 you should start getting thousand of hands on some regs, review your database get to know how they think.

    This so much , you shouldn't be so static . Just try some things like you talked about and start mixing it up a little . I would start off by flatting more when you are in position vs the aggro blind 3bettors . I would probably lean towards 4bettting a little more when oop vs the aggressive 3bettors .
