Re: How to increase money won without showdown

I would say it looks like your doing fine. You need a lot more hands to draw a conclusion , but it looks like your doing well so far.

Re: How to increase money won without showdown

your redline is good enough.

Regarding your question:
- Bluffing
- Bluff catching

But more importantly, play more hands before you start analyzing anything.

never fold a hand and your non showdown line will go up guarenteed.

And thin value betting - This directly improves your blue line (if your doing it right), but also indirectly improves your red line the times they fold OTR or earlier...

Re: How to increase money won without showdown

OP, negative redline is pretty standard at microstakes. Concentrate on playing well and don't worry so much about it, winning at a decent rate is what's important. Actually, making right decisions is important and winning comes as a result of that.

Mine is similar, but I see it improve when taking shots at higher stakes. Higher stakes are still micros fwiw

Which means you turned your hand into a bluff. Because when you vbet you want them to call.

no it just means they didn't call.

If I 3-bet AA preflop I'm valuebetting. If they fold I was still valuebetting.

Yes but you wanted them to call. You don't 3bet AA because you want them to fold and thus improve you redline.

what i was trying to say is that vbetting is when you want worse hands to call, it doesn't improve you redline.

When worse hands fold, it DOES improve you redline but that's not what you wanted.
