I was never good at memorizing so if you have any techniques feel free to suggest


I've heard someone say that when you do something 10,000 reps, you remember it.

If some of the different strategies are very similar, learn one of them really well and only remember which spots are similar so you know where you can apply pretty much the same. If you need to remember what combos do, try coming up with good heuristics instead of pure memorization of combos. Like "SRP: I can't go wrong by raising as weak as a pure backdoor draw vs a small bet because I'll have strong as well as thin value raises. But OTT I need to shut down almost everything that doesn't have equity because my turn value range is very narrow since I'm checking my thin flop raises now"

Little update:

Strategy is ready, memorizing process going well, 60-70% done, just need a little bit more to memorize (mainly 3bet pots) after that i will start playing and cement it more during the process

Haven't played past 2 weeks i think it's good to take 1 or 2 week rest once in a while to refresh mind


Bitcoin update:

Converted all my cryptos to 6k$ (USDT) i have to decide, i think i have 2 choices

1. Wait for 25% drop of cryptos and buy again (i think it will happen very soon) and sell it all again on 15-20 dec after that withdraw all and use it for live bankroll (a little bit risky plan)

2. Just forget crypto now, withdraw all 6k$ and use it for live bankroll (Risk free plan)

I saw TEMA mentioned elsewhere. Not available on lots of places but maybe something to look into.

Not sure what's special about the 15th December?

After long long off-table work and memorizing stuff today i finally started playing to practice it

Here is one hand i played today, in the past i used to fold such kind of hands vs 3bets, i had more like 4bet or fold strategy vs CO/BTN 3bets but now as i have a balanced plan my calling range consists with small pairs too and actually i know exactly what to do postflop

You may criticize donking turn here but i can assure you its balanced, river call was little loose tho but it seemed very suspicious bet from V thats why i called but i should've folded according to my strategy but sometimes a call here is ok i guess

What’s villain repping with that flop bet AA KK AQ or maybe QQ? None of these hands except QQ want to stack off in that flop SPR especially if you’re a German nit

Which means it’s unlikely my bets will get raised and more likely ill realize full equity by the river, also his range consists of huge portion of AKo, he will have AK with almost same frequency as AA+KK+QQ combined which means he will give up vs my turn donks sometimes, if i hit a set by the river there is a chance ill stack him off too

Also missed 44 is my bottom range so for balance it’s not good to just check fold only because villain is German nit, those nits are capable of making good laydowns so if i fold my bottom range vs them and play only top range they will just fold in the end and what i get? No redline no blueline so my strategy is like: you fold vs my top range? Ok then fold vs my bottom range too… you call my bottom range? Ok then call my top range too or get owned and fold everything

But yeah his cbet sizing was little unpleasant, I’d prefer him to bet less.

That makes no sense. You're basically just trying to beat a bluff against an opponent who almost never bluffs. Personally, I would have folded on the flop.

The 'strategy' is to level yourself into losing the max?

Does GTO take that into consideration too? like how bluff heavy is our opponent? hell no right? i literally don't care either because he might cbet with 2 overcards like AKo and im not gonna fold my entire range because of his image

How am i losing the max? in what scenario? i call his cbet and donk bet - thats all i lose but if i make set by the river im getting his stack, also there is chance to win at showdown if he has AK or Axs type of hands

Also im jamming rivers not only with sets but also balance it with some bluffs so he may fold his overpairs too, more V folds more i benefit

Before i was just folding 44 type of hands pre because set mining not so profitable and now with this strategy at least i can realize my equity properly, even if i get slightly better results it's my bottom range so whatever

You shouldn't forget that small pairs win vs overpairs approximately 20% of time by the river, the thing is we may win his entire stack by the river 1 time out of 5 and we can get some folds on the turn vs our donks too and we can win showdowns too

Our aim isn't to basically turn 44 into very profitable hand, our goal is to make more profit then just folding it pre

I look forward to the day paistings comes in here telling you to back off and not steal his fame.

He has some serious competition now nonetheless.
