jyms has a spectacular aura aboutjyms has a spectacular aura aboutjyms has a spectacular aura about
you check too much
You don't cBet enough
Yo don't bet the river enough
you fold too much.

When I see a guy that folds to a river bet 60%+++ I bet every time, you fold 73.85%. and go to showdown only 22%. Dude if you bet the river I fold. If you Cbet I fold. Start betting more, not always, more.

It probably doesnt help that im running like absolute shit, not to make excuses. I feel that my preflop play is pretty solid. Good positional play.

I guess the problem is in my betting.

No offense, but it seems you have some serious leaks and your obviously running pretty bad. Switching sites isn't a bad suggestion, even if it may be more of psychological thing. It seems like you play too weak if you ask me. Try switching things up and taking the advice trainer said. Also, keep posting more hands especially the hands in which you lose big pots. I don't know if this applies to you but some people i know with similar stats are kind of tight/solid most of the time and then just go off randomly and lose big pots. Not saying this applies to you, but here is a suggestion that i think is really good for a lot of people:

While you are playing keep notepad open, and note every big pot you have lost. Your playing 50nl so make a note of any pot you have lost over $15 is my suggestion. Note the amount lost, the hand you had/he had, how it went down. Do this for every big pot of your session and save the file as "Big Pot losses for August 17th" etc. Later on review your play on the big pots you lost and see what you may have done wrong. In the heat of the moment you may think you played it perfect, so be sure to review them the next day. Look up the hand in pt, and see if you made mistakes. If your not sure, or you are confused in anyway, post the hand here.

wait in PT does fold to river bet mean only when you check and the opponent bets or does PT consider raises as well? If PT considers raises as well, you may be bet-folding too much and not check-calling enough. I don't know just a random thought, good luck to you I hate downswings.


oh also post some hands where you made folds in bigger pots

You couldn't pay me to play on Full Tilt.

Seriously you cannot pay me, Full Tilt shut down my accounts.

In all seriousness it's the toughest site there is to play on for the lower stakes. TAGG tables across the board, at least on stars you don't have to look too hard for some whales.

this is what i was thinking...hard to imagine a $50nl game anywhere being tough with regulars everywhere. i would be all over party in a heartbeat if i could though that is for sure.

If you are non-U.S. don't play at PS or FT, you have better options. If you haven't started bonus whoring yet, get on it.
If you haven't signed up at Party or Empire yet get on there cause it's the softest site in the world and you can whore their deposit bonus while you're at it. After that I recommend Everest.

the games at full tilt really arent that bad especially at night. if you actually put some effort into table selection you can get a lot of good seats.

If you're pre-flop play is so solid why is BTN pfr < CO pfr and BTN prf= HJ pfr?

I got pulled up on this in my thread, it's worth rethinking. I found Sauce's Guide helpful. I.e. really consider junking AJ and AQo UTG, at least to start with.

I know you're winning more often than not (and when you're a winning player you can ask if there's value going to waste there) but right now it seems either you're not getting value from your big hands, or you're paying too much to see more streets with your losing hands.

This assumes most rivers are HU and that not too many hands are checked down. I don't know if this stat is really worth that much.

If you care, go into filters and check "folded to a river bet" and see.

For instance over the last 8k hands I have folded to river bet of 75%. Which sounds high, except when you look at the 82 hands in question 55 of them I was the BB and checked to the river and folded with nothing and includes times when you have to bet/fold.

Sure I could start attacking these tiny pots OOP with nothing, but let's face it, there are bigger issues at stake than $1.50 pots you may have been able to pick up.
Blah blah Op Blah blah

Hi

17/12 meh

FTP does kinda suck, I'd go to like ongame, party, or microgaming/ prima.

pfr is too static, I think ideal is that your button should double ur first to act, I think my UTG i pfr 13 and on the button it is 25 or 26.

I don't think you c bet enough. I don't think I c bet as much as tagg robots here but mine is still 51%. Doesn't mean you should start c betting into 2 or 3 people though w/ out hand.

I'd check out Sauces post, and ISF post on b/f

Also post some hands where you lose big pots.

I already did the bonus whoring thing. Party/empire/pr/hw/ft for the win. Id really like to switch sites, where I can get some rakeback, im not allowed to at FT.

Anyways, neteller has stopped gaming transactions as we know. What is the best option for myself to get money on a new site?

I straight deposited to AP with a credit card, but I agree epassporte is definitely not a bad solution for US players. Although they whack you $5/$100 (fixed, so $101 and $199 both cost $10. Anything under $100 is $5)
