how would you play this differently?

really hard to put villain in 2x combos.

check flop. River is never a fold

why checking the flop?



But vs someone who isn't full stacked and is likely a fish, you should be betting big there.

pot the flop, pot the turn, OTR you put the rest of the money in.

as played, checking the river is better because you induce bluffs.

PS: you should read blackrain79's first book, it seems you're missing value vs fish

If you're saying this is happening preflop your graph isn't showing it as you're running above EV.

check raising strategy seems like a bad move to me with sets in this particular field, he is gonna fold to that and i don't want that, i rather make him think i'm missing some hands like broadway suited gappers, or that he is facing a premium (with fold equity on the turn in case im actually bluffing).

they guy on the hand is not a fish is more like a mid stake grinder i get his line like flatting Ax is good with position given the spr, and he has too many outs ott to fold, only not so good implied outs to the flush.

i guess those are the coolers im talking about.

no, is not happening preflop, but i think i'm running over my EV because i've found a lot of value on in some specific spots (some 3b lights, some bluffs) losing a lot less on SB and BB, but where it comes down to play strong hands or the hands i bet for value i get caught in ****, like unreadable hands (or very tought) some coolers (KK vs AA) and some bad beats, cough* some bad calls also.

and ofc, a lot of tilt in the last 5 or 7 sessions(session with -9BI) and the hangover session (wtf did i do) +8BI session lolz.

now im climbing again, and adjusting. im making huge mistakes i didn't do before (hurts to accept it), so ill grind another 50k hands asap with a cold mind and i'll show the results hopefully something better.

ps: i guess you have to run bad sometimes to learn something.

WTF is that call? Was a reg too.

was bb a big fish? seems like an ambitious peel pre for 19bb. assume other guy just miss clicked or just wanted to improve his redline

Tough line up this morning.
Rosh, LRR, Relamz, Amestica, Romanoff, Staticky, Impref, Virus?

Its like a 2015 reunion in the zoom pool.

does amestica really win at all ?

Impressive how people say poker is dying

BB was definitely a fish but even then...

Virus is good? He's garbage. If you're reading this Virus, with all due respect, you're garbage. Your spewy attempts to be tricky made me laugh out loud several times and I hope you keep doing what you're doing.





Anyways...was 20bbs away from a 1000bb stack and then the heater came to a violent end. Maybe next time.

sick grind LRR!

Reunion from those who dropped from 50nl to 25nl lol

You forgot Polivanov, was the biggest winner at 50z FR ARP from back in the day

I actually suspected he was a bot for sometime until he started chatting. I'm still skeptical that something ain't right

Biggest winner in the league btw (from when results were tracked) but so weird with stack size play (no top ups + ratholing)



He does some weird stuff but not the worst, think he is still winning

Nice stack

impressive, never expected that amestica that doesnt even rebuy full would win that amount lol. That's the answer to everyone that think nl25zoom is unbeatable LOL

Propz to him and I take my words back

Graph since I came back to poker lol

gg goal for this month, have only one last month here in this world.

[x] get an internship
[x] 50k hands
[ ] take shots at NL100z
[x] Move down to NL10z

Thanks! 300 something more VPPs til I become more than Silver for the first time since 2015!

Polivanov is crazy. I thought my $160 stack was impressive at the time. Takes him like an hour to "beat" me. Much respect for him for being a sicko crusher.

He flatted 88 vs my UTG which is standard. But then he RAISED a flop like 944r, checked back a blank turn and snapped my river bet on like a J or Q. If he's anything more than a RB grinder I'd be shocked. And I don't remember if it was him but he may have cold called a 3 bet with 53s and then snapped off a river donk with a 5 high flush in a spot where I pretty much have 0 bluffs and only have flushes or better. Maybe he was tilting.

And thanks! I was sooooooo close! Next time I'll play 13k hands and get it.

Latest bullchit to rip off your stars coin

[/url]

I played one hand, cost me 7 SC, won 1 SC

On topic stuff. Changed virus from good reg to bad couple of days ago. PTR seemed fine if i remember correctly but his play is so off. But yet again my game is probably off even more.
IMO the funnest player to play against atm is PS100ps. So easy to give him rope so he could hang himself.

Anyways are there any FR NL25 (zoom) banter groups where old regs talk **** to each other and just have a casual talk?

Yes, PS100PS so yes. I'm not sure if he's really good or really bad. I lean towards really bad but there were a few regs at NL50 I got a similar feeling about (Shanz, thevegasox, Bigpoker) who apparently do very well.

so back in control thx for comments Rapidesh123, i just reduce the number of tables and focus a lot more in every spot.

ill take some shots on NL25 tomorrow don't snipe me.

PS100ps actually crushes, huge winrate. His redline must b insane

Shanz was a huge loser a few years back, small lose rate with huge volume but changed his game and I think he wins decent these days.

thevegasox & Bigpoker are winning decent too. theveg does some weird **** too.

Doing weird **** pays off

There were a few good Skype groups going years back but they all died out

Yes, he crushes the avg player pool. Also seen him tilting against me. As i said it's fun to play against him, because he always puts me in really difficult spots. When i adjusted to his play i think he readjusted against me, so we had to take our game to next lvl. I guess i'm overally be against him, but defo a player i like having in the zoom pool.

I think the best news for the 25z FR Pool is that Luxuswasser is back

I remember him

Gave up after 14 days (march 14th). Was on pace for 300k hands. But i think i never lost so many 85/15, 90/10 favorite on turns... pretty much discusted. KMore because of personal problems. First rule of the mindset: dont play when you dont feel good, its the worst when real life affects your game.
