Because it is rude to make people go through Twitter (or any other intermediate site he wants clicks on).

I also don't patronize Websites that pull that sort of crap.

Totally agree. Whenever I see a link to a hand whether it be itt or somebody asking advice I just skip it. There's a guy in Small Stakes 6m that posts like 3-5 hands/day and puts 3-4 links to pictures of his villains stats. The laziness is appalling when asking people the favor to help your game.

i don't understand how Husker can see this thread in the first place if i'm on his ignore list, and am i the only one he's ignored?

There's also a simple solution for Husker to be more involved in this thread and that's to stop ignoring me! i mean who would want to do that? i'm softer than a fluffy sheep, and you can tell that from my poker personality (gentle, passive and conservative at the tables).

and it's not like i'm annoying or anything. when you see a soft cuddly sheep and it comes and approaches you, you don't shoo it away, you try and stroke it instead. some of the shy ones will be terrified and might move away, but the tamer ones will stop and let you stroke them cos they're nice gentle animals just like you

hopefully husker will one day realise his mis-step of choosing to ignore me and we can help to bring the 2p2 community together with love, friendship and happiness

    edit: in case you're wondering why i did it it's cos i block all the straight combos and also have a blocker to the flush draws. also his hand looks like thin value that can't stand a raise

    Such redlines are actually common with stations (they never fold so redline is huge), not only aggros.

    Where is the EV line in the graph?

    Great understanding. Never folding means always going to showdown. How does that impact the non-showdown line? U are embaressing urself bro.
    Redline mostly depends of how thinly u valuebet. U can decide to check back for potcontrol but u can also bet If u figure u get called often enough by worse.
    Whenever villain folds red goes up - which would have been blue had u decided to check back. Having thinner valubets enables me to have more bluffs as well.

    Ev line is totally overrated since it shows about 20% of how u run entirely.
    All the monsterdraws u flop, build a pot, miss and give up. All the times u 3bet KK v QQ and flop comes Axx. All the times u hold AK and flop nothing. All the times u run into set vs set. All the times u got the worst of it in a standard spot... and so much more. But there u go.


    So what about it?

    You need to ask your coach to teach you more maybe find more coaches? (Also learn how to spell-check your posts while you are at it.)

    If you fold, your non-SD line goes down. SD is unchanged.
    If you call and lose, SD line goes down. Non-SD is unchanged.
    If you call and win, SD line goes up. Non-SD is unchanged.

    EZPZ if you think for yourself instead of being fed by someone.
    If you don't understand, reread or ask the coach to explain.

    Your arrogance is out of place BTW - you spent years playing poker on your own and couldn't win. Now after 7 (or more?) years you finally found someone smarter to teach you, have a positive WR (little over 2 EVbb/100, gjgj) and feel the need to brag incessantly about it without displaying actual intelligence that would justify it.

    About EV, yeah there are many factors that go into the whole "luck" thing, still EV line is a better indicator than non adjusted winnings. Not perfect but such is life.

    Not on a downswing at all. I just don't see the point in bragging about soul crushing everyone with 2bb (!) winrate. Of course there are ways to magically turn it into 6bb winrate, as we have covered previously.

    BTW I know of several regs that do that and better, granted most win money on showdowns (some have negative redlines, some are around breakeven on them).

    Arguably there is a limit on how much can be won with each style, I suspect on 50NLZ FR showdown might be more valuable, on higher levels probably the other way around. In any case one must adjust to population tendencies (and individual opponents).

    Valuebetting we neglect?

    Im not gonna argue with u. I'm a station. Agreed.
    I totally suck at poker and brag without anything to back it up.
    U been following me for a while now but never had the decency to even tell me who u are - being well aware of my twitch/YT channel. Everything u said was packed with negativity. While writing this I regret the time spent responding to u. When u had nothing better to say..
    -I sucked even more 7 years ago (nice research),
    -My spelling sucks.
    -Im running few BI above EV.

    For the record speak/write (if I feel like) in 6 languages fluently. but as they say...
    haterz gonna hate
