    Oh well will start tomoz at about $170 after dropping about 4 buy ins from peak today. Pretty spewy and awful day really the sort of day that will have me not raising in the same spots where they come up again if I am not careful as I find myself either bluffing the nuts or people sucking out.

    It would depend on the villains really and a lot on the opener. I could see myself letting it go tbh as not many people will be bluffing in that spot and probably not that many people playing QQ that way.

    If I did call I would miss the flop totally and probably improve on the turn with a card that gave my opponent the nuts. That seems to be the norm for me today.

    Been over a load of the hands from yesterday that I have been beating myself up about and in all honesty in a lot of them theres not really a lot I could do about them. Its a tad frustrating when its going like that as If I am on the right side of those hands, I mean half of them people are still paying off if another card comes, then I would be just about hitting Nl50 now instead of thinking about dropping a couple of NL25 tables.

    I guess thats the frustrating thing about micro Zoom in that everyone is playing a stronger range so it feels like theres more coolers, again there isnt but people dont seem to get to show down with as a weak a range as at the normal tables.

    It makes more a case for playing really straight forward post flop as I have yet to see someone put their stack in against me post flop with a bluff. Im yet to see a raise that isnt just about exactly what it is repping.

    Just got to try and keep it simple and build the bankroll and then hopefully play enough of Zoom to maintain Goldstar but also mix in the normal tables where my WR is going to be higher and the games are fishier.

    I need to get in to the habit of folding in spots like these on the river. Its never a call against a quite tight player.

      Im doing this play a lot myself and going a little passive on the turn and river with over pairs OOP.

      Im not sure if its the right play or not and a lot of it is player dependent.

      But double barreling in a lot of spots is only going to get a lot of players to fold the turn with worse hands.

      By going into check / call mode your at least enticing him to take a stab at it and putting more money into the pot.

      There are pros and cons to both but imo its possibly balancing out a little over time.

      The villain had a call cbet of 19% and a raise cbet of 0% over a few hundred hands along with a 3bet% of 1%. I was almost leaning towards check/fold the turn but told myself he takes the same line with QQ. Sick thing is that he probably checks behind the river with QQ.

      I could even make a case for bet/bet/bet thinking we get value from Jx but against a tight reg I just dont see it. I do think the river is a fold though, this villain is never bluffing and the larger size on the river seems to be a big hand where as a smaller size TPTK or an Overpair tends to be good more often, Reality is though Im hoping he has QQ on the river because I dont expect him to bet Jx.

      I should count it as run good because I lost the minimum instead of losing my stack which I probably should have done. Would be cool to be on the right side of a KK vs AA once in while though.

      One thing that I think frustrates me the most is that I read lines very well and can usually tell pretty accurately what a villains line means yet I still find myself clicking the call button or bluffing in to the nuts. I sometimes think I need to wake up a bit at the tables because I have played enough hands to see that villains lines are face up and its stuff I have seen millions of times.

      I should do more of this:-

      Villain is 14/8, 1.3 AF and is calling flop cbet 20%, raising 20% over nearly 150 hands.

        I call this size on the river I think Im beat everytime vs this villain. I have to hope he has AJ or a bluff. He never has a bluff and I doubt he bets AJ.

        I call these rivers time and time again and are never good yet I still do it just to confirm my suspicions. Well if my reads are so good then it probably means I actually win money by making these folds.

          This one from earlier as well. Main villain is 33/22 over small sample and once again his betsizing screams Tp or Overpair that he really dosnt think is that strong and is unsure where he stands.

            Your position + 4bet sizing I'd say he has enough AK/AQ hands in his range to make this call(pretty cheap) and be happy about it. Not sure if villain is sophisticated enough to check back AA/KK and ''slowplay'' it, but I'd say his range is going to be apart from the obvious valuehand JJ+(maybe TT) also a lot of bluffs.

            Hand 1.

            I think i would bet the turn and fold to any aggression after that, i also think the river is probably a fold.

            Hand 2

            This is a 4 bet pot so we only bluff catching AK on the river, hes not betting with anything worse imo.

            Im not sure if i would bet this flop either when OOP, just opening yourself up to a crappy situation, the turn call is ok although the J is not a great card to me.

            Hand 3

            You just have to raise this flop because your hand is kind of disguised and a UTG+2 raiser is not going to put you on AA on such a drawy board.

            You would get paid off a fair bit here i reckon.

              i think i'd probably bet this flop to get value from JJ/1010. As played, when we get to the river like this i don't see what hands we beat apart from AK, and i'm not sure if he bluffs that, especially with this small river sizing. he looks like he wants a call, and i doubt it's a value bet with AJ. also from his pov this board crushes your range and you're probably not folding AA-QQ and certainly not JJ-99, so i can't see him bluffing. i'd c/fold the river.

              You know I post all these hands in this thread where I get the money in so bad but I cant actually remember sucking out in any of the hands. Its going to happen eventually isnt it? Anyway another 2 lol hands and the second one goes back to what I said about the sizings. I have trip Kings with top kicker on the river and just know that I should make the fold.

              Standard run bad hand where I get sucked out on yet again:-

                  play more A-game imo, every decision u face is another oppurtunity to make the best decision. That's all poker is about.

                    Pretty standard fold yes. Calling for a split at best.

                    I cant wait to tell the grand kids fondly about the times that we used to value bet second pair at Micro Zoom.......its going to be like one of those urban legends that never actually happened.

                    Anyway BR back up to $200 and about $100 below EV which I shouldnt really count as I never mention it when Im above EV. Just got to keep playing like I have today and then once BR rebuilt switch back to the normal tables at home as I remember going from Rush to the normal tables and it was a killer as I thought everyone including the fish had the nuts. Need to keep my eye in on those games because they are so much softer.

                    You are playing 25NL on a $200 BR?

                    And why aren't you 3betting that A5h from the BTN?

                    I would say .. why dont you just 12 table the normal $10nl tables and build up with $200 and increase the tables as the bankroll goes up ?

                    Not that im saying the above because we would be targeting the same tables and i do not want any part of that !

                    Yep & I dont want to turn a hand in to a bluff that plays perfectly well against a CO open.

                    @Hap Hazard When I get time at work I dont want to spend it table selecting so would rather just jump on tables and just having 4 in front of me works well.

                    Just had a look at my hands for NL25 and I have yet to stack a reg yet I have lost KK vs AA once, KK vs QQ with the rivered set, 88 with middle set vs top set, KK vs AK that hit the flush, AA vs Ak that turned a straight, its fair to say Im getting hammered by the regs and could do with starting to cooler one or two people. Ive bluffed off just over a stack as well which tbh isnt that bad for me its usually more.

                        Looks like Im ending for the day and stand at about the $213 mark which is pretty good after yesterday. Looks like slow and steady and not put money in without the nuts is the way forward.

                        Ive also started going bigger again with the 3bets and again people are giving them more respect and also bigger with my cbets when bluffing which has seen my cbet success jump as people seem to be playing very honest against the bigger bets. It isnt often Im cbetting wet boards as a bluff so on the dryer one the times I get called its always by at least top pair which is making it really easy to play the rest of the hand.

                        why are you checking OTT with TP and a blocker to many flush combos?
                        isn't betting OTT on hand 1 standard?

                        and you're getting unlucky if you get action only when behind, villains can't see your cards bro!
