This is capitalism for you. CEOs get paid approximately 300 times more than the average worker these days, it's insane!

Yeah it's an outrage!

I'm hourly in a position that should honestly be salaried. I work with a bunch of salaried coworkers. You would be surprised the mindset of some of these. Some of them are so concerned about their job that they are willing to put in 50-60 weeks every week due to this corporate stigma that if this one thing one of your employees are supposed to do isn't done, it's on you. My corporation just recently had all of their salaried people sign a document stating that they are to be at work a minimum of 9 hours per day, 5 days a week. Otherwise they're fired. Corporate America and businesses in general are the absolute scum of the earth.

That's nuts. I sign stuff every week that says I'll do X, Y, or Z all the time, but it's just a load of ****.

Great vid. Around the 8 min mark where you bink the straight with 78s, is the flop not a cbet with the gut shot? Feel like I'd auto bet there but I might be doing it wrong.

Don't remember the spot and I'm at work. What was the action/positions?

Hero opens 78 in MP and gets cc from btn and bb. Flop comes T63 and BB checks and I check.

Yeah, standard check I'd say OOP to BTN and 3-way spot on somewhat middling, two toned, semi-connected texture. I haven't done analysis in OOP spots as PFR vs a BTN flat yet, but I'd be checking this if it was just me vs. btn. As it gets multiway we should be checking more. I can run a PIO sim for MP vs BTN cc when I get home from work.

I noticed a couple of minutes in you 3bet a CO open on the BTN with QJs about 140bb deep. Do you typically always do this vs probable regs or do you flat with some frequency? I'm guessing you'd probably be flatting QTs almost always, what about Q9s/Q8s?
03-25-2017 , 10:09 PM
far too much strat itt

Mixed freq. but vs. unknowns I just 3b. At a regular table I'll start incorporating more flats once I have some information on my opponents. The population tendency is that no one on this site is 4b bluffing or (or even 4b value-ing) as wide as they should so 3b is great because I generate some fold equity and take a hand post that has great equity vs a calling range (TT-22 and lower SC) and lots of barreling potential. Obviously behind stuff like AQ/KQ/AJ, but that's fine. That being said flatting is obviously great as well, esp with what are likely always weaker players in the blinds at 25nl. Either play is fine, but at 25z on my site I'd assume 3b is going to be better. Build the pot and attack post flop.

Well it's quite simple really. Either you're happy working 45 hours a week and you're happy with the hourly that your salary offers you (based on a 45 hour week not 40). And if people are consistently working 50-60 hour weeks for the rate of a 40 hr week, they either need to leave or ask for more money imo. Unless you get off on working that much.

Hey,
Been subbed for a little while but never posted anything.
Checked your VOD on twitch and there was one thing that bothered me the most, why is there a rabbit on the card that was supposed to come?

Apart from that, it was a cool hour with a couple of interesting spots. Plan on streaming more?

It's just the rabbit cam. It shows the next card.

Yeh sure, I'll try and stream for another hour when I get home (about 7 hr from this post). There aren't any games running in the morning so I'll just do the 25z again. I'm tired during that time anyway after working a 12 hour shift.
03-26-2017 , 08:40 AM
I'll play some 25z again for about an hour. Will go live in maybe 20-30 mins

I agree. Many much better semibluffs to choose from.

Then I'm probably check raising if btn bets.

3 way I'd make a straight pot odds + implied odds decision.

I don't have time to post the pio file, but pio suggest checking ~70% vs a 12% flatting range vs. just one opponent in the mp vs btn T63
03-29-2017 , 02:24 PM
Check folding the 87 hand?

Checking folding a gutshot feels a bit weird to me as the pfr but understandable on two tone no spade oop.

Just checking.

Spoiler:
Lol poker puns

I'll be going live for some 25z after work. Will grind 1hr before sleep sleep time!

Thanks for anyone who stopped by. I got pwned. Lost about 3bi or so.

Will stream again tomorrow after work. Latah!

The 78s spot sounds interesting. Did you deduce what pio suggests for how BTN should play their range if MP cbets too wide?

No, but if you're available in 12-13 hours we can go over it in PIO and I can nodelock it fro MP to c-bet 100% vs missed c-bet.
