You aren't "only calling 1c".
You are throwing 1SB away to chase random trash on the flop with shit hands oop, wich is terrible.

Yes, makes sense. I had to look up something about polarized and merged ranges.
I also switched site to pokerstars.it and there seems to be way better players. More aggression pre-flop, more...
First reason: I often regret not playing certain hands. Not because I go "OMG I folded 4-8 and the flop is 5-6-7" but because I see so much stupid shit it's unbelievable. And I could exploit it for...
Not sure if this would be more appropriate in the beginners circle, so move it if I'm in the wrong section.
In november I started playing 5€ NL again after almost 2 years.
I played the first 10k...
I think I'm doing decently with what you called 'soft ranges', at least for this level.
But the following study/theory is severely lacking. Mostly because I'm still treating poker like a videogame,...
Thanks for the input.
Full hand:
OnGame - €0.05 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players

UTG: €3.52
MP: €4.85
Hero (CO): €4.92
BTN: €13.25
Yes, I realize it's a bit tight. But I considered a few things:
- of all the stupid things I do while playing, br management isn't one of those. If I'll drop to 15BI, I will immediately step down to...
Villan is the usual microretard. Sample is 40ish hands.
VP 59
PFR 8
3bet 0 (0/12)
fold to flop c-bet 0 (0/5)
agg frequency 30
OnGame - €0.05 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players

Yeah, it's ok. I'm very happy with the results, considering I didn't play a single hand in two years and I wasn't exactly a stellar player in the first place. I'm a bit pissed off because it was...
In november I started playing again after 2 years (I think). I even started a failblog back then. Then I promptly burned myself out and disappeared.
Anyway, started again with 5€ NL.
Until november...
That's what happens when you limp aces.
If you decide to 'slowplay' aces, that's one of the worst possible flops to try fancy shit.
I'm a total amateur, but I can tell that hand is plain terrible....
Stats. Stuff like preflop limp/raise, reaction to 3-bet/4-bet, c-bet/fold to c-bet %.
First month of this blog is over, with mixed feelings about the outcome.

EV line shows...
It doesn't seem to be the case at 5NL on my site either, but probably it will change at higher limits.
I base it on villain's info. There are a lot of villains willing to stack off with any pair/any...
Good stuff DoubleJ, thanks. Some of that is done by poker tracker, but some needs way more effort than what I'm currently putting into notes.
So I'll look more into that part of the game.
Italian...
Care to elaborate on this part?
Also, gj on hand 3.
Typical spot that makes me hate the universe and humanity. I usually call vs obvious fish, but still hating life.
Yes, notes are something I need to put more work on.
I tend to note something at every showdown, but it surely needs to be more organized.
And thanks for the replies.
3/3 hero calls, wich is...
Villain is 35/4 over 70 hands, 5.75 AF.
There's a note: "Catches nut straight and shoves 15x on river".

UTG:...
I'd probably have folded on his 4-bet preflop.
At our microstakes there isn't much creativity going on and this villain seems decent.
I don't think they have AK often enough in this spot to justify...
Today I was watching some Poker After Dark on the italian dedicated poker channel and one of our most respected players, Flavio Ferrari Zumbini, (some good placements at the WSOP, great online...
Played some solid 1k hands in the last 2 days, running around 13BB/100.
Lost a buy-in in a set over set hand, wich doesn't bother me at all.
No major suck-outs.
I'm focusing on my game vs...
I'll try.
42/9 at microstakes. They never fold Ax.
OP says he can aggress, but not when he has a hand, so some sort of slowplay with 2p is possible.
Then he suddenly realizes he's getting...
Yes, no problem with this hand. It's not of those retarded 3-outers.
Just wanted to know if good players can find a reason to fold in this spot.
Ok thanks. Already realized flop bet was too small.
Turn: (€0.94, 2 players) 5:spade:
BB checks, Hero bets €0.60, BB raises to €2.20, Hero raises to €4.43 and is all-in, BB calls €2.23
...
Only 7 hands on this villain. 57/42 so he may be the usual microlagtard or a decent player getting good cards.
