Biggest leaks for uNL regs?

I'm sure this has been discussed before at some point in time, but since games are changing, it's always interesting to see what people think right now.

So ...

What do you think is the biggest leak that micro stakes regulars have? Basically ... what keeps you from winning more and moving up?

(if this has been discussed in detail recently, please link me and lock the thread)

Re: Biggest leaks for uNL regs?

levelments

we always levels ourselfs into thinking he reps nothing/draw and we call to be constantly shown the nuts

then the ovb, not value betting enough, some people bluff rivers, but check tp, its pretty retarted

3betting too much oop instead of buttons, and not having plans, ie 3betting junk, then brain farting post flop when they see the board

too much autopoilt/high table number which means not enough A game

think thats most of them imo, that i come up againist, or have

Re: Biggest leaks for uNL regs?

not understanding relative hand strength very well, probably more a function of not thinking in terms of villains range street by street

Re: Biggest leaks for uNL regs?

Calling down to much when you know you are beat.

Not actually learning how to play solid ABC poker and just trying to get too fancy when it is unnecessary.
Perfect example: Here

Tilt - This might just be a select few of us (me in particular) I know I have tanked my BR on a number of occasions because of tilt leading to playing bad which in turn leads to my first point haha.

Calling too many 3bets pre and not doing enough 3betting of your own.

Bet sizing for value.

Calling lots of 3bs OOP to "punish" the 3bettor.

Calling cbets without having a plan for most turn cards.

Checking turn with a medium-strength value hand without knowing why you're checking.

Thinking regs bluff too much.

Re: Biggest leaks for uNL regs?

calling raises from passive people.

Thinking about ranges right up until the point where it really matters (i.e. in big pots I forget everything.)

All these are right in line with what I was thinking (there are bigger themes which tie a lot of these together) ... keep them coming!

As in, our uNL hero opens K9s in SB, and the BB who has a pretty high 3bet% 3bets, our hero will call because he should have a lot of worse hands.

Works similarly in CO v BTN.

Some people get sick of getting 3bet all the time. SO they figuire they need to 'take a stand' and defend against those 3bets, often they do that by calling a lot of 3bets and then not knowing what to do on flops (which will result in losing a lot of money ). I think this only applies to bad players

calling turns and folding rivers against agrotards - i find myself doing this alot.

Using stats in the wrong way/situation. I was thinking earlier, when a fish donk/folds all his air does that make his Agg% and Aggfactor huge? Cos this could definately make me do something completely retarded against them.
