I don't really buy into the "wait for a better spot" logic in cash games. I want to learn to play correctly. If that puts me in some spots where I'm unsure then so be it. Hopefully I can learn...
I don't have enough hands for stats to really be meaningful, but he looks TAG so far. 25/25 with 14% 3bet after 12 hands.
Sizing looks pretty standard given he is OOP 3-way. I don't see how...
Yeah, I think best case is probably breakeven here, and chances are he isn't shoving every possible draw. I think we can fold this.
Villain is an aggro TAG and will probably often shove overs+FDs and maybe overs+gutshots. Does he have draws often enough to call?
Poker Stars, $0.10/$0.25 No Limit Hold'em Cash, 6 Players...
Villain is a unknown after 6 hands. Snap call, cry call or fold? Also, does anyone check back the turn?
It feels like a snap call with 50% equity vs {nuts+AJ}
Poker Stars, $0.10/$0.25 No...
Wow really? People are folding AK/KQ on this flop at FR? If FR really is that nitty, then you should be PFR/3betting anything suited and remotely connected and just barrelling off with any draws...
It sounds like your full position is more reasonable (except supporting an obvious attack on the salaries of all teachers under the name of "performance related pay").
That being the case, you...
I think you certainly do have FE on the turn if you make it mansized. Betting to get folds is fine. I don't like betting to "build the pot" and miss most of the time though, and if you really think...
Wow, this is incredibly offensive and ignorant. I'm sorry to derail the thread, but I can't let this go unanswered. The idea that a sizeable proportion of bad teachers are personally to blame for...
It doesn't assume all villains play perfectly. It plays according to a trial and error strategy which was developed by letting it play against itself for millions of hands. Theoretically that could...
AFAIK flopzilla (which I haven't used personally) is just a prettier & more expensive version of equilab (which I do use, and which is very, very good and free).
Combonator (which I do use) is a...
Maybe you're just asking about the maths, but if you are actually thinking about a poker situation where villain is 3betting a tonne and 5betting super tight, why would you ever want to get it in...
If you can come up with an example of where you think it applies, I'd be interested to hear it (in another thread - to avoid derailing).
The usual example given is to do with comparing a player...
Those hands do not exist. This comes from a misunderstanding of the concept of balance.
While this is true (and we've talked about it already) that doesn't mean you are bluffing. I actually think a lot of your thought process in this hand has been a bit confused because you can't...
I don't understand this. You should absolutely only play hands that are profitable. This goes for any form of poker.
There are caveats where profitable means "more than you would lose by...
Too small pre again. I'd make this $1.20 if MP opened and everyone else folded. All of your tough spots lately seem to be OOP multiway after you 3bet small pre. I would focus on this first.
As...
It depends what you want to end up playing, but if I had no long term interest in tournaments I would rather take 40bb shots at nutcamping 2NL rather than playing 1k man 2c tournaments for a roll
...
Yeah, I agree to some extent. I never actually played this hand, it's just a spot I've been thinking about from a theory point of view. In actual play at microstakes villains will often be making...
Yeah, I strongly disagree.
"pretty much a no brainer no though"
I think on many dry boards, the EV of flatting top set is higher than the EV of raising top set. I think on this particular board they probably run pretty close together as there are a few draws...
But then our raising range becomes incredibly bluff heavy and spewy, or we just fold way too much and are highly vulnerable to cbets. Either way seems really bad.
The logic of calling JJ is...
Thats only 10 combos, and thats IF he raises KJo from MP which is a bit of a stretch. It's more likely going to be 7 combos of AJ, KJs-JTs or maybe J9s + some FDs. It's probably not bad given that...
Part of what got me thinking about it was the number of people folding 33 preflop. You're right that there are plenty of other combos that make strong hands on this turn including 77 and 78 though.
