Don't know if i have played you on NL5 but hope i got the best of you.

br

A lot of spew in these hands. Feels like your aggression is super random.
Sometimes there's no shame in giving up...
GL

Thanks mate. Probbably we have played, HM2 says Im up 5BI vs you :O

Sometimes i feel giving up too often. I agree the aggression is kinda of random, but if we look at the the first hand, I raise like KQs all sets there vs some opponents and i just barrel it off on safe turn and river. 74s is kinda w/e i felt like this guy has way more Ah than PPs there and i have all 88-QQ in this spot and i play it exactly the same way. I am also pretty sure that im not overbluffing in order my opp to start calling this light ( talking about KK hand).

After a discussion i had, it is indeed more of a spew and saw it from a different point of view. Apologizing for my previous post, i didnt want to argue or smth just my thoughts during the hands

hahaha rly? What is your nick?.

Best Regards

Hand 1

It's better to cbet flop and give up if he calls.
Riverplay is mega spew.
You are representing a slowplayed AA or QQ only...

Hand 2

Why are you raising flop?
With zero equity?
Turn doesn't change anything. Just give up.
Don't try to be a mastermind at 10NL.

Hand 3

KQ is ok'ish. Villains river sizing would worry me.
Looks very strong, but can def understand a call.
Don't like the minraise pre in sb vs bb.
Missing a lot of value, because it will massively affect pot size.
Also you are inducing random 3bets or give villains odds to call basicly any 2.
I would always 3x or 3.5 it in sb.

Hand 4

Why are you 4bet bluffing this hand oop?
It's real bad, I'm sorry.
As played at least cbet yourself, instead of c/c.
Riverplay I don't know what you are trying to get to fold with this sizing?
Kx? I think most players at 10NL would snapcall ace high on river.

Just my 2cents

Just wrote down some more info on my view on these hands, cause off course writing "it's spewy" doesn't really help you a lot. GL

Super spewy in my opinion. Hey some videos that helped me out a lot at NL5-NL10 was Bodo's he made a series on youtube.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vTWTn4SuUo

He also calls even when he knows he is beaten just to show you , very good in my opinion.

Neither one of these hands are ''fine''. Lol

figure it out in HM2 mate

I have watched these videos live, when he made them and I have watched all of the rest series couple of times, but watching and actually being in some of these spots is actually different story. When i review my sessions i know i should've done this should've done that, but in reality I dont execute the knowledge or the point of view i have off the tables, than on the tables.

It depends

THanks m8

----------------------

Anyway, I couldn't put much volume today, since we did like ~6 hours work off the tables with a buddy from the study group im in and right now i feel like too late to continue. Had a pretty fun table today with a reg, since i sat down i've 4bet him all the time, obv he got pretty tired and eventually start shoving Ax, called him with AQ and then his 88 vs my JJ and he left the table.

on hand 3, i prefer to check again, the 2 is completely blank. check call, let him take a lead, you gonna catch some bluffs and worst hands... you are OOP. in this case you hit AK, doesn't matter but i guess the best line there is check call.

go to my thread too, i post some hands. GL

I finished late yesterday and decided to leave the update for today. Gonna leave it with a graph and some hands for now

10nl today



5nl this month



10nl this month

forgot to mention its only reg tables

mirko have u considered just posting one hand at a time? That's why i never comment lol!
Good to see u at 10 nl btw. Be there soon i hope.
Are u weathering a downswing playing reg tables? that's what i do when things r going bad i play reg tables to slow down a little bit
reg tables are easier right?
a lot of peolpe think lots of regs r wasting their time at zoom because they could be extracting more money playing less hands in the same amount of time.
what do u think about that endless debate?
me personally i love zoom but reg tables r a good way for me to keep grinding and have a change of scenery


GLGL

Thanks for the wishes. Reg tables are easier, but it becomes pretty nasty when aggro players or whales are sunrunning vs you. If you mean in terms of hourly rate (in general not on 10nl reg) zoom will pretty much beat all the time reg tables. Even though I love zoom and prefer to play zoom, i would say that you shouldn't waste your time playing 10nl zoom, I dont like using the word 'cancer' but this is the best word to describe it.

Played pretty good the entire session just had to stop, because i promised to rail a buddy from the study group. At the moment I feel like i have the best stats I could ever have on the micros, probbably I lack volume so im gonna try do something about it till the end of the month. Also gonna stop working on stats anymore etc etc.. and double the review time of hands or something arround postflop scenarios still not sure what im gonna look, but there is stuff to be done

Hand 1 - Unless you have a really specific note on villain, then I think this is just spew. If villain isnt folding alot to cbets then I think we just check and give up OTF with only the BD gs. If he's folding alot then cbetting is fine but defo giving up vs the raise.

Hand 2 - Not much you can do here. Obv not loving life when he donks pot OTR but we're never folding. Hand's well played imo.

Hand 3 - Dunno why you're opening 5x here and 2.5x in the previous hand. You should keep your sizing consistent and make sure you open the same size with your whole range, unless players left to act give us a reason not to. Folding to the 3b. I don't hink there's too many players at these stakes with a 3b bluffing range MP v UTG and so we expect him to be strong here. We don't wanna be plying this hand OOP vs 2 strong ranges imo even if the price is good, at least at 5nl. Ch/f turn as played. Facing shove OTR sucks. Assuming he's not 3betting TT pre, his value range is like QQ and some overplayed AA, KK. So we lose to 3 combos of QQ and beat 9 combo of AA KK. Considering he may also have the odd bluff (AK) and getting over 4:1 I think we have to call.

3) is 10nl its not 5x

H1 is vs thinking reg, I did it because
1.1 we have a range advantage
1.2 We have a good blocckers, though JQs is prolly the best to do it with, but KJs is fine too
1.3 he can possible have only AQ where he will have a sick time otr
1.4 I dont expect him to fold boats, but at the same time he has only fiew sets of 9s and A9s
1.5 When we check shove we expect him to fold all his trips

Ok my bad ignore the sizing part then.

I just think that there's just much better hands to take this line with like XXss for example would be better candidates imo. If you're bluffing this hand then there's no way your balanced in this spot and I think regs at higher stakes at least will pick up on this pretty quickly. You're right that you block some of his Ax but I think it's a mistake to expect him to fold a hand as strong as AQ here. I think that most of his Ax is calling here in reality. If you have info that villain is raising flop light and then firing multiple barrels on dry runouts vs a strong range then ye, it'd probably be ok if you planned on taking this line from the start.

Makes sense thanks. Though he took his whole timebank and folded prolly AJ/AQ

Annoying day, not because of poker, but my internet was stopping every 100 hands, which in the beginning i did handle, but then it started really to piss me off and called it a day.

1 AQ
Pre squeeze is def ok, but I pop it to 75 or 80c
As played cbet 3 way oop is spew.
Turn okay I guess.

2 9Thh
If you float, bet like 70c.
Give up river, nothing has changed. He won't fold.

3 98dd
Why do you cbet so small??
As a rule of thumb, use a standard sizing like 60% pot.
Deviate from this in special circumstances, but don't see any reason here.

Either check (preferred) turn or bet normal.
With this sizing a good player will raise you all day long.
And then it's up to play the guessing game...
