The „Leffe” challenge: flatten the red line
on this particular board i guess he must have picked up something: at least a pair, pair + draw or a combo of these. i don't see raising as an option. this board smashes his range rather than yours, and you would make him fold only the few bluffs he can have here. it's more likely a fold to me (a Q is not that great card on this board , any diamond either so we're relying on 2 outs if villain has only one pair, and the times we are ahead he has good equity).
flatting IP is not criminal, but if villain is likely to dub the turn as well you're going to burn money most of the times.
vs. donk bets on drawy boards like these i tend to let it go if i don't have much equity.
also this donkbet is not so weak in terms of size. did he always donk half pot when he folded?

I don't expect him to hold 78 here. I agree with you that if he calls a small bet, he also calls a bigger one. I don't think I'm ahead 90%: he was a nit and called two streets on an A-high board. IMHO his range OTR: AT, AJ, AQ, 55, 99. Can we b/f 3/4 pot given his stack size?
it's more a blocking bet (that is why i like a check too) than a value bet. it's pretty thin to valuebet here vs. this guy imho.
A shorter winning session today.
Villain was unknown. Do we check back or b/c or b/f OTT as played?
In the second hand villain was an aggrodonk (41/34 over 32 hands). He hadn't faced a 3bet yet. He was overly aggro postflop too (AF: 61%). How should I have played the hand?

AA bet turn for value. it's more a b/f than a b/c as i don't think many players can bluff on that turn card. he could overvalue a FH but he would prolly dub the turn with it.
KQs hand well played imo. you get value from his bluffs with this line.
KQs hand well played imo. you get value from his bluffs with this line.
I checked back b/c of this and he bet around 2/3 pot on a blank river. Can I raise for value?
yep certainly raise for value otr as played. whether it is a raise/get it in or a raise/fold depends on your reads on villain. but most of the times it's a raise/get it in.
Yeah, thx. I just called and he was on a bluff. There were two similar situations yesterday where I was afraid of raising for (thin?) value. Oh well, there are so much room for improvement left...
A BE but otherwise terrible day. W$WSF: 35%. I still think this is the main problem.
In the first hand villain was a 43/11 fish (over only 30 hands), F2CB: 40%, raise CB: 40%. Can I call his min raise OTT given his stack size?
In the second hand villain was completely unknown but seemed fishy.
In the third hand villain was a huge aggrodonk fish (74/68) who always min opened and never folded to a 3bet (0/5). He wasn't overly aggro postflop.

Another winning day but I'm still very unhappy w/ my game.
In the first hand villain was a huge fish... BTW have you realized how often I have written this? I think 80% of my HH's posted here start like this. Anyway, back to the hand. Our villain was playing 49/38, no relevant postflop stats. What do you think of my line?
Another huge fish in the second hand: 74/4, postflop very passive.

I read only the first page, but when I started I had similar red line as Yours, now Its at least flat and when I play my A game Its going straight up. Two things that I think will make a difference are:
- 3betting and squeezing more (I`m sure You heard It before in this thread)
- stealing more pots by bluffing, use the board and position
What I suggest You should do is to use 70-100$ as your learning funds - dont be bother If You lose It, but be with It more aggressive and less scared. Make some moves You normally wouldnt do cause they are not "safe" - get out from Your comfort zone.
Few of my hands with NS winnings from yesterday
Not much He can have there except pocket pair (probably not a high one) or two overcards, He`s a NIT/TAG and probably wont be comitting too much money with It = probably will fold to a raise.
If He has anything else than A (flush draw), hes not calling our river bet, so Its a split unless we overbet It, then he might fold an A (if He has one). Look for spots like this one, cause they will add to your winnings.
This was based on our previous hands at this table and this is definitely a high risk play but I knew he was gonna check raise bluff me on turn so I went with my read and wasnt scared to do so.
It wont always work but giving up and folding wont win this pot for sure.This one I could pull only because we were deep, turn was K, He bet river, He bet that much on river and He wasnt a total donk.
My advice is to look for spots where You could take the pot down with a bet, raise, shove. My second advice is - dont overdo It cause It can easily turn into disaster.
Ps. In that last hand why river check?

Not much He can have there except pocket pair (probably not a high one) or two overcards, He`s a NIT/TAG and probably wont be comitting too much money with It = probably will fold to a raise.

If He has anything else than A (flush draw), hes not calling our river bet, so Its a split unless we overbet It, then he might fold an A (if He has one). Look for spots like this one, cause they will add to your winnings.

This was based on our previous hands at this table and this is definitely a high risk play but I knew he was gonna check raise bluff me on turn so I went with my read and wasnt scared to do so.

It wont always work but giving up and folding wont win this pot for sure.This one I could pull only because we were deep, turn was K, He bet river, He bet that much on river and He wasnt a total donk.
Villain was very passive and I though he only bets w/ an A OTT. OTR I thought he had a weak A but my was weak too. Perhaps I should have tried to bet small to get a crying call from a Qx or a weaker A.
EDIT: Thx for the tips!
Finally a successful day which can give me (back) some confidence. I'm not completely happy though as my red line was in free fall at the end of the day.
Let's see some hands though. In the first one MP was a tight player (18/14) but CO was a fish (51/15, 11.5% 3bet over 83 hands). How do we play preflop? If I 4bet and the MP shoves I'm definitely crushed and have to fold. If I just call then I have to play OOP against possibly two opponents. Finally I don't want to fold having the fish in the pot.
In the second hand villain was a huge fish (88/16). He wasn't particularly aggro postflop but he couldn't fold and it was the second time when he raised a cb (out of 7). Easy fold?
In the third hand SB was 51/15 and BB was a 58/8. None of them was too aggro postflop but they couldn't fold either. Can I do anything but fold?
Finally a hand where I'm not sure if slowplaying can be correct. Villain was an aggrodonk (57/35, 4/12 raise cb, 44% turn AF). Against him I'm ready to stack off but is raising the best OTF?

Plans for the next weeks:
- I have successfully withdrawn most of my BR but redeposited $200 again so that I can grind a $40 bonus. I have 20 days for it.
- After that I will change a bit how I play: I will reduce the number of parallel tables to two (currently playing 4) and I will try to win as many pots as possible. My game is too robotic ATM which doesn't help to improve (along with my red line).
Finally a successful day which can give me (back) some confidence. I'm not completely happy though as my red line was in free fall at the end of the day.

QQ hand meh...what's original raiser foldv3bet? i would cold 4bet here to isolate the fish tbh. being oop i'm not sure i like flatting.
88 hand fold, especially oop. these folds will make you improve your redline
QQ hand again fold...frustrating huh?
AA i think you can go either way. but being oop i prefer 3betting otf here. villain is probably not folding a K or a draw here. if we flat he has the chance of checking back ott. if he has a T he's folding otf or checking ott so we don't lose that much value imho

Plans for the next weeks:
- I have successfully withdrawn most of my BR but redeposited $200 again so that I can grind a $40 bonus. I have 20 days for it.
- After that I will change a bit how I play: I will reduce the number of parallel tables to two (currently playing 4) and I will try to win as many pots as possible. My game is too robotic ATM which doesn't help to improve (along with my red line).
and anyway we can get value from that hand otr as well.
A3 hand: you have to cbet here, you get calls from Qx and broadways. if we check is to check call, and should do it vs. a player who bets more vs. missed cbets imo. if you get called otf you can check/call the turn.
I almost shoved but ended up folding. Obviously both of them was ahead of me...
Thx for the answers!
AA hand if you 3bet otf you have the chance to make him stack off with worse, like an oesd or a K. if he's drawing he might check behind ott. oop i tend not to slowplay, even though vs. this villain could work.
AK hand yeah, cc otr imho. if you lead he's not calling with worse but maybe an A, which should bet himself anyway so it's not that we're losing value. it's hard for villain to have a real hand here so i would call a river bet most of the times vs. this villain.
A3 hand by not betting you give up the lead oop which kind of put you ina weird spot when he overbets. as played folding is not that bad ofc, but that overbet is kinda ******ed

Look at this if you want to see a funny (weird looking) graph:
One hand to mention: villain was 20/14 reg. On another table I had seen him isolate 5bb w/ AA so I thought I'd just flat call his raise preflop. He cbet 2/4. How do we play OTF?

Playing OOP sucks so much. He could have had anything but I didn't want to barell 3 streets so I decided to x/c two streets. And then he suddenly overbets...
idk, ak hand, i don't see many 7s in a BB cold calling range vs. BTN if villain is decent. he's repping 66,77...that's it. vs. your wide range from the BTN he could overvalue an ace, i lately see people in the 6max foum playing tp like this, and random bluffs. of course if you don't feel like clling a river bet then folding ott is better but i'd call here.
Last AK hand i like flatting here pre even oop, especially if limper is a huge fish. CR seems standard. donk+3bet maybe ok too, idk if many people would like it though. to overs+nfd i'm probably never folding vs. this villain.

Yeah, I was scared to x/r although it's the easiest move ever.
I have finished the 14th week of my challenge. If you look at my graph you may notice a 1.5 BI losses at the very end of it. I flopped two sets in three hands but lost with both of them (although misplayed the first one). Because of the recently losses I have played a bit tighter and more straightforwardly postflop this week but at least I won again.
My stats:
My stats:
- Volume: 49,387 hands (this week: 4,001)
- VP$IP/PFR: 22.4/18.8 (this week 20.9/17.4)
- 3bet: 4.5 (this week: 3.9)
- Flop c-bet: 65.1% (this week: 55.7%)
- Win-rate: 3.22 bb/100 (this week: 13.02 bb/100 // This is the only thing I'm really happy with)
- WR w/o SD: -12.72 bb/100 (this week: -16.42 bb/100 // Tragical...)
I have still very big problems w/ my red line but I'm winning and this is the only thing which matters after that long BE stretch.
In the first hand the OR (UTG) was a tighter reg (19/15 but he was positionally unaware). BTN was a fish (78/24) and BB was fishy too. I didn't want to just call as I didn't want to be in a 4-way flop OOP. What to do OTF?
In the second hand villain was a huge fish (72/22 over only 19 hands). He was somehow normal postflop. What do you think of my line? The question is if playing such hands so passively if acceptable against him?

JJ- cf otf think everyone will play straight forward even tho the pot is already bloated.
K2s- villain is calling w a wide range which makes cbetting more profitable.

If we c-bet OTF how do we play OTT? I expect him to call a lot OTF.
