Thanks.

I would expect him to do that regardless...

joking of course.

aha thanks...

Thanks, same here. Gl to you as well.

I think you need to tighten up preflop until you have improved your post flop game.

I think your opening range is too wide and its leading you to get a ton of post flop situations that are hurting your win rate..

For such a preflop range you red line should be a lot better.

Good luck in your goals though...

Feb 16th

7.38 hours, 4385 hands, $+83.8, 234 VPP's, BR: $286

Pretty good day, started with analysis and a good discussion with another 10nl reg, lead to the following changes...

- cold call less
- tighten up a lot from EP
- Cbet more, paying more attention to villains who play fit/fold.
- Opening up from the CO when the BTN is a nit

Some postflop stuff too like hand reading, b/f in spots rather than shoving etc.

gl all.

7.38h sick grind and nice profit

Hah didn't expect to see such immediate changes to your winrate following some advice.... but apparently I was wrong Keep it up man and soon you'll be crushing the limit! good job

gl bro will defs follow.

+1 on the more cbetting on flop (and mebbe less ott)
gotta exploit the fit or fold tendencies of uNL players all day!

as for the hands

QQ is a fold imo
KJ i dont really mind if u think villain never folds AA or AK otherwise checkchekchek to traptraptrapppp him and buy oreos
TT mebbe a bit smaller on the flop but bigger on the turn but wp
AA raise flop then call down to not let him get away ever from worse but never fold obv


vamoooooooos

Good to see you back at the grind. I would advise not to go too crazy over HUD stats. Just cause someone has a 20% 3b stat after 50 hands doesn't mean villain is some crazy aggro isildur wannabe. Could just be running hot over small sample. Still keep villain with default ranges till proven otherwise. GL!

Yeah i've tightened up a lot, especially from EP, and then gotten wider from LP, should definitely help my red line and WR overall, thanks and gl to you.

Thanks, i actually wasn't motivated at all when i first started, watched a film and then managed a 5 hour session to make the day worth while.

Hopefully, Need to move up pretty quick if i'm going to stand a chance at SN.

Thanks.

Thanks for the input and gl to you.

Yeah fortunately i've got ~300 hands on quite a few players now, all pretty bad regs and still small samples but helps out a lot to not spew like crazy at them.

Gl to you all as well.

Biggest losing hands from yesterday:

Villain 36/2 over 45 hands, hasn't raised a flop yet although has c/r one before. I think 99/44/22 are there but unlikely as i'd expect him to limp behind, he could have fd's, overs + fd's, 9x maybe although unlikely unless A9, perhaps a thin spot.

Are we folding flop at all, calling and re-evaluating turn?

98/2 over 197 hands, 53% fold to cbet, perhaps my iso is too wide here, i think iso'ing hands that can flop TP more often is better. Decide to cbet with a gutshot, bd fd, again i think this isn't great. Turn/river i just wanted to give villain a chance to bet all 2 pairs/sets that he likes. Also has a 49% frequency on the river, whcih is by far where he's most aggressive, another reason to call turn, let him bet river.

Overall not happy with how i played this at all.

First session of today, taking a break so i don't burn out later today. Not checking how much your up/down every 5 minutes is the nuts, i thought i was only up 2/3 BI's this session, was a nice surprise.

43/23 over 22 hands, has raised 1 cbet before hand. Thought he could call with a rly wide range pre as well as shoving really wide OTF, not sure whether it's a fold or not.

QQ: Villain is a loose/passive fish. Way more pre (to at least $0.90). As played I'd fold OTF against him. This min raise is either a set or TT+. Fold <<< call <<<<<<<<<< shove.

7T: Pre and the flop c-bet is too loose but you know that. OTT I'd fold against him. It's always a flush as he would call you down w/ straights or sets.

AJ: Again, I don't really like your sizing pre. Flop seems fine given your reads.

AA: Good sizing pre. Calling OTF is close but probably fine.

AA: Turn is a pretty easy call, why would you fold? Villain can have a lot of two pairs or worse sets.

the only thing i have to add is that it may be worth adding a bit to ur default 3bet when u re 3betting oop. say villain opens to 3bb i prefer a 3bet to 11bb or even 12bb because of the huge disadvantage u have by being oop when called. this also accomplishes our main goal which is to discourage speculative calls from 98s that when vilain is decent and in position can cause a lot of pain. has been working well for me so far

just saw that after a raise to 2.6bb and a flat call you 3bet in position to only 8bb. i mean i do see a point if u expect ur cbets to be hugely profitable in this situation but really u should 3bet to at least 10bb both for value and bluffs. this small u re just gonna get calls and a hand like AJo cant be a longterm winner in that spot

Feb 18th

Going to take a break, 4254 hands, $+41.83, 269 VPP's, 5.5 hours so far...

Back to college on monday, will be interesting to see how much volume i can get in, will try and get all my work done at college so i have as much time as possible at home to grind.

BR: $349, 379 VPP's until i can get another $25 bonus, that should be tomorrow and hopefully then i can take a shot at 16nl.

That red line is so much better than it was, not plummeting towards the floor anymore Nice upshot in the last half of the session, keep on crushing 10nl and you'll soon move up!

lol dont buy the $25 ones, with your volume you can easily save up fpp and buy $50, with better fpp to dolar value
