Didnt you say that you would bet turn and river if not raised? If we bet river its prob a shove tho. For the other hand, alot of ppl disagreed with my flat otf but I do think its a good one.

Yes, I did. But we have been talking about the 3bet size preflop.

Well, raising can't be that bad either but I like your flat call much better.

Been playing better in the last few sessions and happy with the way im dealing with my vbets/bluffs. Little bit of running good makes it all the better

Villain was a tight reg that cbet alot. 3b pre is bad bc villain is never flatting w worse and i thought about raising flop but I think calling is okay too given I have 2 overs and if villain has Jx he will barrel often and if theres a overcard villain can barrel as well. I guess I could fold OTF but I dont like it when villain is cbetting alot. Villain was 17/14/3.8/86% cbet greater than 10 times. Dont think villain is vbetting river w worse.

nice graph and winrate. keep goooooooooooing

ty ty. Not sure when I wanna take a shot at 10nl.

What's roll and do you think you beat your current game?

The first AQ hand: I'm not sure you're ever ahead if SB shoves. Even if he just calls you're in trouble.

The second AQ hand is WP.

The 33 hand: fold OTF. You have less FE in a 3bet pot.

~190 and 7.70 winrate lil bit over 40k hands

First AQ- SB is short and given his stats he can be doing this with alot of Ax, Kx, PP's.
Second AQ- You like calling cbet better than raising?
33- I think hes cbetting this flop alot of the time but yeah prob best w/o reads.

No, SB wasn't short at all and he's still in the hand!

Yes. You can be ahead and villain won't fold a medium+ PP.

Take 10BI shot at 10NL imo. Also if you loose, see it as free coaching, see what you did wrong, and don't do that wrong next time. You can grind pretty well at 5NL with 150. 1 word of advice: don't overadjust. They are not as good as you think they are. Gl with it

Oops, I meant BB. This is a rare call from me but I think its an acceptable one considering how much air might be in SB's range.

Well I actually play 4nl and ive played higher before so im not afraid to move up or anything like that. I wasnt sure whether I would wait till I hit 220-250 to take a shot a 10nl or play 4nl and maybe 1 table of 10nl mixed in.

Nothing wrong with folding pre, setmining OOP isn't profitable and you are basically never going to showdown for free. It's fine if you suspect bb to call a high % obv.

I understand that but the times you stack 2p/TP type hands make up for the times that you miss imo.

Some more swongsss but happy with how this month is going. I wanted to hit 10nl even if that means just taking a shot at 10nl by the end of this month. Seems that I am within reach of that goal. I generally dont like taking 20BI shots but I think it should be fine given how soft these limits are. Seems like im playing better too fwiw.

Fwiw, those of you who think my call on the TT is questionable. Villain had around 7-8%3b so he would of 3b AK/JJ+ there.

The 75s hand: You should have raised (x/r) OTF.

The AQ hand: I 3bet pre. The fold OTR is fine.

The other day I finally hit ~200. I am not a huge fan of taking shots of levels at 20BIs but I think its fine given how soft these limits should be. Unfortunately, my first session sucked but hoping to get back into the swing of things.

Sigh, I got owned.

The 44 and the AK hand are fine.

The QKs hand is fine too if you had a read villain is overly aggro postflop.

AK hand really bothered me for some reason.

Villain was 28/25/9.5 w 7% 4b but 1.7 4b range. Does this change your opinion?

Not really. It's a cold 4bet and I don't think he bluffs often enough so that you can shove profitably. If the BTN steals 40%+ it's actually a good spot to 4bet bluff but I almost never see such a bluff (at NL10).

I agree and I would have been more likely to 5b jam if it was not a cold 4b.

Shot taking at 10nl has been horrible the last few sessions but my previous session was a good one. My buddy sweated me and we had some good convos about some of the spots during the session. Im only playing a few tables so hoping to win some more BI's soon so I can up my hands per hour.

Def the most interesting hand of the session. CO is a reg who opens way too much but is 17/15/9.6 over 527 hands. BTN is a fish 42/16 over 117 hands. I think the squeeze is a good play here even w/o that much of a read on the fish. I have a low 3b this session and havent squeezed yet, I will get alot of credit here. I think turn and river is interesting bc when we call turn (think villain has more air/draws than value hands) what are we doing against another bet. Thoughts?
