The first hero calls of mt life were vs 4x pot overbets, since I'm a fan of blockers I see myself calling Ah since he wouldn't valuebet Kh in there (but he should, every flush in fact and all sets).
But he shouldn't have that many flushes in there. Just because I don't have flushes it doesn't mean I can't call, we protect x ranges to protect ourselves from valuebets, not bluffs. Any bluffcatcher will be +EV vs overbluffs, don't need a flush in there to call him down.
I missread the board, didn't see there was a flush possible. On 3 flush boards, it's seems easier to hero call with Ah though, but in reality it may be a suicide since most regs will only ever bluff with Ah there and they can value bet lower flushes.
Btw, I agree with most of the hands that you post here and your comments on them. That's why I don't really reply to them much anymore. If you keep playing well I think that you can reach 200z/500z by the end of the year. Good luck.

let's hope spinmerightaround will stop saying you're a break even player at 50zoom
Yeah haha
And in the first hands I was breakeven pretty hard, I think in the last 230k hands I have a 6bb winrate.
By looking at that graph I feel like I should stay at 50z longer and at least have a stop loss at 100z so I don't have -1k days when I could end up tilting. If i had played only 50z with that winrate without taking too many shots I would have a way bigger roll. I will keep my approach of playing 100z on weekends after a 4k roll and 50z on weekdays until I have a 10k roll.
From my sample I was breakeven on weekdays and my profits came almost all from weekends
Ended up not going out and played a bit until internet went bad, slow internet tilts me as ****, specially since stars is timing out VERY fast. Has anyone seen that? I feel like since the beginning of the week I'm timing out very easily pre-flop
Roll is at $3.3k
Some hands
H1: I feel like people's CC range is so face up, thought that his main value hand would be JJ/TT and that he could have AK/AQ as bluffs, since I thought he wouldn't valuebet JJ, I thought it was a good call OTR. But I think it was bad because AQ got there and it's very unlikely that villain has AK going for that line. So can't find many bluffs for villain unless he is calling very wide.
H9: Guy has to have an 8 here, right? I think these guys won't have that many flushes unless those are paired. Honestly I was thinking about just jamming the river, but not that good with the 8 in there, on another card I think it's good.
Zoom seems to time you out before your timebank unless you have money in the pot (i.e. open/call/blinds etc). So the reason you seem to timeout quickly is because you aren't actually using your timebank in most scenarios.
Are you using Starshelper? If not i would recommend it.
H1: i don't see many bluffs either and just x/f river
H2: i think it is fine and play the same
H3: yes
H8: i think it is fine
H9: nh
H10: i would cbet flop but i understand the reasons for x. As played i would x/jam turn. River i think i call here, you are really underreped and you are blocking some flushes. He could even jam a Ks for value here and still has a lot of busted stuff.
I was going by his lifetime graph and the EV line:
That is essentially break even. Yes in the graphs above, over that particular time frame, do show he's winning at 50zoom.
To me this something to celebrate, he's come a long way. I remember his posts back in 2011/2012ish. To see him a steady winner at 50nl 6max these days is pretty cool.
Rapid, the timebank was shortened on Stars within the past couple of weeks. Thread on that in NVG.
Wow, that's so much bull****. The main reason I played on stars was because of their software. I'm seriously thinking about quitting stars after that. I only 2-table and timed out naturally twice yesterday (and like 10 times because of internet lag).
Maybe I will stay in there in the 50z games and will move to ignition for bigger games.

Thanks, jetkiss! On h10 I think villain was competent enough to valuebet sets, but not sure if he would go that thin with Kx, also I block AsQx which is probably his most frequent bluff. I think if villain is loose enough pre this can be a call though.

He has come a long way, you are right. I was simply going by the EV line, which shows after more than 1 million hands, he is up less than $1k in EV.

Believing rapid is better than me or almost any reg just proves how awful you are at poker. You just self owned yourself without even realizing. lol.
edit. I see ur an mtt player. That explains it. lul.
Someone said I was one of the best 50z regs already in his opinion. There's no doubt I'm at least solid, specially given I've always been very transparent with my game/results here.

Ended up finding it on google, but didn't find the nvg thread yet, maybe the discussion was inside a random thread. Timing got reduced a lot and probably everyone will have trouble 4-tabling.
Stars is making it hard for all grinders out there, atm their biggest advantages over other sites is how easy it is to put volume, software and not being anonymous poker (I hate it, I feel it benefits bad regs a lot and it's a format with less skill involved).
