Operation: 'A' game

things will turn around

Was reading M2M's post and saw his comments about gunnar glasses.

Ever since I got laser eye I've been having a lot more eye strain when grinding for a few hours. I'm at the computer like 9 hours a day at work, but the strain is definitely way more from 2 hours grinding.

I just ordered these:
Gunnar Sheadog Eyewear - Sheadog Eyeglasses | Gunnars.com

They should arrive in a few days and hopefully these help!
I wonder if I can somehow claim these under my health care coverage!

Aside from that, been playin pretty decently but running not so hot. I'm still making too many river mistakes and bad river calls when ppl's ranges are very narrow.

I've also been experimenting the last few weeks with opening almost any two on the button (minraise). I think my button VPIP/PFR the last few weeks is like 61/55, compared to CO 26/24 and MP like 17/15 (which on ongame is also utg).

It's working ok, but I think I should tighten up a BIT more. Minraising on the button needs folds 57% of the time for immediate profit, which requires both ppl in the blinds folding about 75%. I don't think something around this is unreasonable, but most people are probably more likely around 65-70% folding.

I'm sure there is some optimal % here based on players in the blinds, their folding frequency and also their c/f frequency postflop. I'll have to think some more about this and how it all relates to the best stealing percentages. Obviously if players are calling more than 25% pre but then folding a ton of flops, we don't care about our immediate fold equity. Things to ponder!
