Yeah, but I rolled a low number so I checked.

Morning session pretty standard. Lost a flip Ak<JJ early on but made it back pretty quickly.

This guy cold called my 3bet pf from the blinds and then tries to blast off on this board. A little too ambitious I'd say.

Sometimes you fold

Hero is UTG w/ $209.40
Villain is button w/ $237.48

PF:
Hero opens to $5, HJ calls, Villain calls, SB calls, BB calls

Flop($25): K 4 Q
Blinds check, Hero bets $6, HJ folds, Villain makes it $24, folds to hero who calls.

Turn($73): Q
Hero checks, Villain checks

River($73): 4
Hero checks, Villain bets $208.48 all in, Hero folds.
I know JT can do this, but I haven't seen any of the population do this at this limit or lower with enough frequency to make me want to call.
I see people do this all the time w/ basically the nuts saying inelastic ranges and all that.


And sometimes you just go for it.
Hero has $201.62 in CO w/ A2
Villain is bb w/ $200

PF:
Hero opens $5 in CO, Button calls, SB folds, Villain in BB makes it $26, Hero calls, Button calls.

Flop($79): Q 9 Q
Villain bets $21.53, Hero calls, Button folds

Turn($122.06): 4
Villain checks, Hero bets $40, Villain calls

River($202.06): T
Villain checks, Hero bets $114.09 and is all in, villain folds.


Funny hand from last night, I forget the details but on the river I had 9 high.

I bet $114 into pot of $87 and villain shoved for $118 and I folded lol.

Thanks man!

Yeah I'm pretty surprised how soft $200NL is. I actually can't really discern any difference in terms of difficulty from any of the stakes. I played a lot of $25NL - $200NL and they all seem the same to me.

But yeah going well so far can't complain.

Some hands from today:

Hero has $195 on button w/ J3
Villain in bb w/ $210.20

PF: Folds to hero who opens $5, SB and BB call.

Flop($15): 2 5 6
Checks to hero who bets $6, SB folds, BB calls

Turn($27): 7
BB checks, Hero bets $18, BB calls

River($63): 5
BB bets $44, Hero bets $166 and is all in, BB folds.


Hero is LJ w/ AK w/ $401.50, Villain is CO w/ $215.68

PF:
Hero opens to $5, fold, LJ makes it $15, folds to hero who makes it $65, Villain calls.

Flop($133): Q T 7
Hero bets $95, Villain folds. Amazing.

Phone session. Made a bunch of mistakes today. But still did ok. Gotta clean it up.

I'm pretty sure I'm defending vs 3 bets too much, especially when I'm in position. I think I'm defending like 80% of my opening range when the sb or bb 3bet me.

I've started defending really wide IP too -- my villains are 3-betting too much but then playing a bit passive overall post, and usually in a pretty honest/straightforward way. So I'll peel a lot of flops for their 1/3 PSB, and then evaluate from there.

Yeah I've seen a lot of checking as well.

I've noticed they call flpp a pretty high % after checking so you gotta go 2 or 3 streets.

I like the mobile. I play on it quite a bit. I only single table on it, but I think you can play up to 4 tables if you want.
