So, I've progressed through the ranks in poker and now I'm up to 10/25 where the really really good players live.

Consider me better than 5/10 crowd and probably -ev in this game but there is room for improvement.

Villain is one of the handful of best players in the room, definitely top 4 and arguably higher. He's ultra aggressive pre flop and will put a ton of pressure on you with 3bets and 4bets. consider him the loosest player among the small group of serious pro's that rule this room.

that being said he does like flops and will sometimes just flat call with monsters and isn't afraid of offbeat hands

Two hands from the session:

I have about 8k and cover villain, he opens MP I 3bet button with A9o, he flats, flop is 983, he checks, I bet, he calls, turn 6, check check, river 8, he bets, I call and MHIG vs AJo

hand 2:
there is a raise and a call in MP, the BTN, another high stakes fixture in the room, raises to 250, villain 3bets out of the small to 700, BTN back raises to 1500 and villain shoves, BTN calls and stacks get in for about 220 BBs

AQo vs TT


The hand

Villain has me covered I have around 6300

Villain opens HJ to 75, Hero 3bets to 225 with AQ

Villain 675

Options?

Hand 1 what are you doing pre? Ur just spewing
Hand in question just call pre and 3b sometimes. I’d just fold to the 4b

I like to flat call here. He’s shown that he’s willing to flat call AJo out of position so there’s reason to believe his 4bet range is polarized. No reason to 5bet AQ vs a polarized range imo.

Hand 1 A9o 3 bet is very bad.

Probably affects your image

I think the hand in question is a cool post and an interesting sport. I’m probably just taking a flop in position.

This game does seem very spewy and I too would love to know which room it’s spread in.

It can’t be that bad. We’re in position and have a good blocker. I bet it’s +EV in a vacuum assuming u don’t go overboard
