    behind you with an axe
    Looking forward to the blog.

    Do you think it's possible that those mistakes you are referring to have any potential upside from their effect on villains opinion of you and your ranges?

    Yah I think this is possible. I'm sure there are times where I make $400 mistakes in a few sessions, and sometimes it pays off and I spike and get action etc. In my calculation of "total avoidable", i'm not offsetting the totals when it goes my way. That's one consideration.

    In terms of ppl's reads on me, and how I play. Sometimes it really surprises me how little people adjust. I really feel like I over-adjust or adjust too quickly to opponents, and assume everyone adjusts at the same rate I do. Realistically, it feels like people hardly adjust to the extent I assume they would, or at least it appears to happen a lot more slowly. I rarely find myself saying "wow... you called with that"

    I'd say people's biggest adjustments to my style of play is not stacking off lighter, but slow playing bigger hands, and flatting big pairs to 3bets pre etc. So their stacking ranges are mostly the same, but the way they go about stacking just changes due to my style of play it seems.

    Which is highly exploitable since they are getting to showdown with similar ranges. I've noticed very similar things.

    I'm very excited to watch the blue jays finally make the playoffs this year!
