Eventually I’ll buy a new laptop but for now this is why I only two table for now....

He stated he thought the QJ bluff was bad, which honestly I actually rather like. The 76s hand is where I'm curious. I understand it has no showdown value but suicide bluff<fold 100% of the time given that situation, opponenets SPR, and 3b calling ranges. Nonetheless, rooting for you RUB, crush it.

Yeah I see your points brotha, right on for the comment and love.

Why would you flat with QQ but 3bet small pp and suited connectors?? Just fold those and 3bet your QQ.

You need to get something better to smoke out of first dude! Get a bubbler or a bong, makes a big difference in the harshness of the smoke. Less carcinogens in your lungs, less tar.

Get your damn priorities straight!!!

Good luck, we're all rooting for you.

SimpleRick i can just clean this pipe with some cutips or pipe cleaner from an arts an craft store lol. The hits are great afterwards lol.

I love the bubbler one of my favorites forsure. Nothing beats just rolling a fatty tho.

Thanks bro!

Having the smoke go thru water first will prevent some amount of ash and other garbage from getting in your lungs. Throw that little pipe in the garbage! Nothing beats a fat bag out of a volcano vaporizer. So fresh and so clean. Get all the flavor of the weed. You ever cough up black stuff? The good thing about weed is its a bronchial dilator so it opens up your airways and you'll cough up a lot of the tar that gets in you. As opposed to nicotine which is a bronchial constrictor which ends up keeping the tar locked up in your lungs. Don't smoke cigarettes. Don't smoke blunts (or at least in moderation).

Should i just raise get it in on the flop? Maybe have some fold equity?

Played 1k hands today and today was forsure the craziest day by far. was up 200 down 250 to ending the night a small loser.

Staking Challenge Day 4

Result -103.71

Hands 1005

H1 4bet pre
H2 fold river
H3 check river

H1 you should 4bet small, but it's not the worst flat

H2 multi way just go 1/2 pot otf no need to size down. Never fold the river to this min raise. River bet should be somewhere closer to 1/2 - 2/3 tho (this isn't a spot to size down to go super thin)

H3 Bet turn and fire at least a psb otr if the flush comes in. As played check river

probably not gunna reply with too much more strat itt anymore so pm/text me these hands (and post here for other opinions)

Not a good day at the tables.

Hey man loving what you are doing sucked you had to deal with family stuff but says heaps about your character. Pretty cool by giggity as well, props. Have been following the whole thread but thought its about time I should sub and say gl. Do you plan to live grind at all in your near future or focusing entirely on online?

Thanks for the sub and the love bro. For now I'm mainly focused on online for the next 3 months. I will forsure dabble here and there in the live scene when i have time.

Yesterday I did not complete 1000 hands which is unfortunate but I’ll make sure I’ll do 1200 hands today.

Yesterday woke up kinda late, just felt like sleeping in and not rushing thru the day. I purchased a runitonce account and now before every session I give myself 1hour of prep time.

That 1hour consists of watching a full runitonce video, taking down 3 things you learned from the video. After the video mediate for 10mins ( I have been using “the honest guys” on YouTube, seems like a good guided mediation.

Video I watched: Know Thy Playerpool: Ignition Live Session By Brad wilson

Things I learned:

1. Brad opened KcQs on btn, blinds call, Flop: KdAc4h, standard check here because if he bets and gets called his “pot share” goes down dramatically.
2. Brad flats BB w/ Ad8d vs BTn open, Flop: Qs3h8h, Hero calls a bet of $22 into $52, turn: Th , check check, river 2c and this is where you would overbet to 155% of the Pot to Target a lot of your Villian J9-JT that would bet flop and check both turn and river.

So just got to my spot and about to put in Day 8, I have about 6k hands in the data base after I get the hands from last night I’ll post my graph from the beginning of the challenge.

Talk soon

Listening to brad wilson makes me want to kms

You’re to skilled to listen to Brad Wilson lol

Some super fishy plays by the pool lololol, keep it up man good to see things going well so far

What is "pot share"? Never heard that term before. H1 is a super clear check though

H2 I think there's a ton of better hands to bluff river with. Overbetting middle pair just seems like spew to me does this brad guy really think V folds the nut straight otr (or that V would check that back)?

H1 Pot share is a horrible term for what I think is just “equity” That maps to probability of improving to a hand better than your opponent uses for a bluff catcher.

H2 oops T9 not J9
