Proceeds to post 6 hands where he feels he outplayed the other. Good stuff, Rapid.

Note the key word here "feels"

Blindly following hud stats when you wouldn't even have a sample size for 200z player, and when you have no clue how he would play his ranges. A xc line multi way with sets doesn't make much sense there either, so who knows what they are doing. Question is why didn't you jam the river? You have no jamming range there other than ****** bluffs do you? lawl

I love trying to figure out the reasoning of a play by a fish lol. It's fun and super +EV

since it's a mw pot, can't jam 55 for value, some guys will fold all overpairs vs a jam, since I don't know if he is capable of calling big overbets otr, I'm happy with my 75%.

I only try to have a reasonable overbetting range vs regs, vs fish/semifish I overbet 100% value or 100% bluffs the one I think will be more effective.

Multi way pot? Some guys will fold all over pairs? Sure and some guys will snap you will TP and overs. That's not a spot where you should be worried you are ever beat, playing 100bb. You are nitty when you have a hand, but loose when you have air. That's a unique combination of ******.

Running like garbage in the last days, but yeah, after that sick month I can't complain.

Some hands

H1: ultimate vamo action OTR, jesus, that bluff was insane. I usually gave up OTR, but blocking AKcc is quite good to bluff for that sizing OTR, since I'll still valuebet my Ax there and will use that sizing. Qc is also a very good hand to bluff for that sizing. I would also have a jamming sizing there, but better to use other blockers.

H8: I'm not sure in this one, pre-flop he gave me such a sick price to call and we're slightly deep, if he has only AA/KK ofc it's a fold unless he is making mistakes post-flop. Thought he could have AK, so decided to call. Called the flop because I could maybe be good vs AK and had my 4% equity vs overpairs. Was folding OTT. Good plan or just fold pre?

don't 3b hands like that if you are going to use a linear size; you want folds

sry completely misread the hand

Nh imo

Is this a troll or do you really like it?

obvious troll bro

That's some high stakes stuff. In the micros nobody does these bluffs. Nobody, not even the maniacs. You seem to bluff a LOT in your posted hands, what's your AF, like 5?

around 3

I wonder how many bb's you have punted off by calling trash in bb then doing dumb ****. fold pre and stop trying to be otb. Good to see Clanty is out of hiding. Hit another heater?

Calling J5o is as std as it gets here in sickland, man. 2.5x on the SB vs me and get ready for trouble... And make it double.

the truth is that I got owned there, was clearly overbluffing and thought villain wouldnt call an overbet. Thats poker, sometimes you get owned.

You must call a lot then as well. Sticky. Tuff' reg. When I first tried gambling high stakes it helped me mentally to just think of regs as fish, because they are bluffy and sticky, but the difference is, they actually know how to play and can react to your tells if you give 'em away, they just play this way because it works vs most people who try to move up stakes.

2nd time I came a chip leader near final table in a 'high' tourney with $10k up tops in the recent past. So close to the glory but busted in an ugly way once again 9th or so. As in retrospect, I think the issue is I get too attached to the money up top because it could shortcut my poker progress by A LOT and just implode to the pressure and excitement to win.

I need something more like you, just grinding ZOOM and steadily moving up or something like that. Rapidesh, the Grinder.

As long as you lose as little bb/100 from BB and SB as is 'solid' in your stake, it's all good and take no critique. If you lose even less, that's tower defense (with a bit of sun run). If you lose more, maybe he has a point.

You over bluff..period. And your so unbalanced. For example I know you would never value bet a flush with that sizing in that hand. I think you have gone past sick and checked into ****** central.

Pretty good attitude imo. They are all mostly varying levels of fish. This thread is a great example.


Trust me, you don't..lawl.

I'm pretty excited to see rapidesh own 200z this year.

I was being serious. Maybe bet turn but I mean you either have a flush there or you don't.

Edit:

Fold pre

Thx, man! Playing a lot of 200z because 100z seems unbeatable during weekdays, dont think I can beat 6bb in rake in a pool full of regs with 12% avg vpip

Btw, quite busy in my studies and didnt set out paypal yet, will do it this week so I can pay you

Its funny that I can see that 100z/200z seem way more beatable than 50z. Im running hot ofc, so have some bias in there, but in 50z I had to beat an enormous amount of rake, so imo its way better to play a tougher game where I need to beat people by 8bb/100 before rake than having to beat weaker people by 13bb/100.

It's not nice to troll your students.
