OFFICIAL MicroStakesLIMIT stats thread (part 2) - Page 5 - Small Stakes Poker Forum

I was going to wait till there was 10k in this sample but it looks like I'll be fishing the rest of the day.Small sample after tweaking things a little, mostly .25/.50,couple shots at .5/1 which went well.No more cold calling problems,and my AF is up.I think I can add a few more hands in late position still.I also cut my volume down to about 3-4k hands a day.

I try not to be results oriented,but winning is nicer.All feedback is appreciated.

FWIW, the only hands I am CCPF are small-mid pocket pairs after someone has raised and another player has already CCPF.

Gonna do another check-up, considering I've changed my style of play a bit over the last 12500ish hands than when I first started playing .5/1 at the beginning of the year.

There were a few things I was wondering about, but I don't think I'll directly point them out now as to not bias comments.

24 hours of quiet? What, was 2+2 down? Well, I'll semi-bump by saying, although I play FR, even adjusting for that, I don't see anything too out there. Maybe steal a tad more from the CO?

Murder:

What Duff said wrt position stats. Also, you're going to showdown too much, IMO. And your getting smoked in the blinds - that's probably something to focus on.

Edit:

JBJ - I'm not a 6M guru, but everything looks solid, IMO. Move up.

You can open your EP range a bit, IMO. Maybe to 9% UTG & UTG+1 and 10% UTG+2. You could also steal a bit more, IMO.

Thank you for the comments, Leroy, shuinthehouse, and fracas. Besides the sort of low WTSD that I usually point out and try to justify, I actually was looking at my CO steal % some and figured it was a tad on the low side. I think I'll do some Stove work, maybe re-read that one section again in Stox's book, and go from there.

Vista has the snipping tool, doesn't it? If you can figure out where it is, use it. Maximize HEM to fill up most of your screen, and then highlight the area that you want us to see. Then, re-upload it to Photobucket or whatever.

Gamble,

Think about tightening your limping range some. It may be okay at this limit so it's hard to say for sure. Hard to tell much else from the stats you posted since they're hard to see.

With posting screenshots, it helps to get rid of the white space. So open the positional tab in the new window, then change the size so that your averages are right underneath your stats (and so there's not space on the right side). Then screen print, crop, post to photobucket, etc.

You might also search for my 3k post on customizing positional stats.

In probable order of importance:

Read up on how position affects what hands you play, and then start playing a lot more hands from late position. Your VPIP/PFR should not be constant across all positions.

Cold-call less.

Probably tighten up your VPIP range very slightly; it might also help to try to more spots to raise PF.

3-bet a lot more.

Find more hands to steal with from late position, although I would guess the situation doesn't even come up too often at FR .1/.2.

Gotcha, I knowing there tends to be many more multi way flops I know I have opened up my calling range early and getting raised etc and that eats up a lot

Cold-call less
Similar to above, I know its going multi pot so I respect less raises to be honest. I need to tighten that up

Probably tighten up your VPIP range very slightly; it might also help to try to more spots to raise PF.
Assume word is missing but I get it...same as above I gotta lay down more middling hands early

3-bet a lot more.
1 thing I have noticed is people are less likely to call 3 than 2 bets yet many will still call regardless as we know

Find more hands to steal with from late position, although I would guess the situation doesn't even come up too often at FR .1/.2.
1 off the blind tends to raise a lot at this limit, at least with me so it eliminated the steal potential, I def dont feel like I do it enough. Its also .10/.20 but I dont know if this section calls it that

I unfortunately know some of my leaks are mental, A lot of times I know I am beat but Ill still call down on the cheap just to see it. I tend to justify by saying I am building info on the player for later but mostly I am just annoyed.

I also go to many bets in cases on the flop with high pairs, Ill have to find some hand examples and post them in a strat thread.

FWIW I used to beat 8/16 live when I lived in Vegas for a while but been out of the game for 4yrs so I feel I am leaking like the titanic and Ill be hitting Vegas in a month so I would like to make it a profitable trip.

Thanks for the insight

Play a lot more hands from the button. Defend your BB a lot more. Post attempt to steal and blind defense stats next time. You're getting creamed in the blinds, so you might find somebody to match up with in the issue specific reviews thread.
