    Small update

    1st: Just got back from a 8 day or so vacation in PA where i fired off many illegal fireworks into the sky.

    2nd: I had a good conversation with Illfavor and Spoonitnow about 3betting/calling/folding with certain hands like suited connectors and other such hands. The end result is pretty obvious now, but im writing it down because its another thing that conflicted with my old 'knowledge' of poker.

    When we 3bet with something like 76s, the bottom line is that we're doing the same thing as calling. We're bluffing. Its pretty fucking obvious, i know, i mean...its a 7 and a 6, we aint ahead of shit. We arent aiming to flop top pair and get it in, we arent hoping even to flop two pair or trips because alot of the time villain is gonna miss those boards. (ie, we could hit 77A, 77K....772...only like 3 of these hit will often also hit villains range...and even then he'll only haev actually hit it even less and maybe not even stack off 100% of the time...similarly when we get two pair). So what does that tell us? It means that when we're calling a raise preflop with this type of hand...we had a plan preflop to bluff the shit out of villain.

    3rd: Because of this, ive actually fixed another leak. Cool beans!

    God, I would never do this for value unless it's against a maniac stealing 60%+ from CO or Button. Or as a bluff.

    If u were doing this, I'd like to know how it worked for ya. I like this Op.
