So the plan is to alter your gameplan going forward against weaker players? I generally think I like the way you go about it, the aim should be to play good poker (and you 100% play better than me) but surely as you are looking at developing your good play you are also thinking of how different reactions to what you do alter how you go about things?
Maybe I'm just on such a lower level that those adjustments are much more obvious and easy, whilst being less "correct".
Most of the adjustments are simple to figure out and counter after you have enough information, the hard part is being confident enough to make a huge deviation.
I always waited for at least some decent blockers to go nuts on a spot vs someone I thought was imbalanced in a certain spot, that approach is good vs competent regs that are paying attention, now vs a 4 tabling reg that doesn't even know he is getting owned, that approach is leaving money on the table.
As an example, vs turn overbluffs you could print by raising any2 and overdefending SDV, vs a decent reg he will get your adjustment and readjust, vs a bad reg he will get exploited in this spot countless times until he realizes what's going on, and when he does he will probably end up spewing like that guy that jammed tpwk vs my set in a spot jamming was way worse than calling(his only option if he thought I was abusing him).
By increasing my calls from 45% to 50% and turn raises from 5% to 7% I will defend more vs his overbluffs without getting noticed and having to play the readjusting game (which I suck).
And yeah, my plan is to focus on beating fish/weak regs for a bigger amount. I will obv end up studying some of my crazy **** from time to time because I know I love studying/making theories about those ******ed useless spots/strats. But will restrict my studies on those as much as I can.
