He has a pair of 10's, that's SDV. Beats 9x, underpairs, chops with other Tx. Most players wouldn't fold Ax there.

I'm genuinely just looking to discuss strat, learn from other people's point of views and also externalize some concepts I learned (think I've learned). I can see how some guys like mzbourg and isolated could get tilted, they don't like getting into discussions because they "know their place"(that they're micro players and shouldn't discuss with the big boys). So they get tilted by seeing me do it.

But yeah, it's a good thing to do that, the more strat discussion the better. Even if I give free info/xenoblade and others give it too, it's so small in the poker environment today that the benefits of what I learn with that way outweight the people who learn new concepts/reads by reading the threads.
Who are these "big boys" you speak of?

Rapid, this is you calling others jealous of your "success". Not everyone who criticizes you sucks at poker.

I'll give you this though, I admire your passion for the game. It's frustrating seeing your posts sometimes because shockingly, I think you can do better.

I didn't mean that, also I've already told you guys that my story in poker wasn't one of success (so far). I'm not delusional to the point of thinking of myself as successful.

But I have high hopes for the future, which is why you and other guys might think I consider myself successful

You're getting laughed at in almost every ''big boy'' thread you post in cause of how awful your strat is. Yet I am the one who is tilted by seeing you do this? Best part is, you seem to not understand you're being mocked.

So now that I can't be jealous of your poker success cause you're a failure I get tilted because I see you post unreal nonsense in other threads? Yet I also have to believe you're not delusional?

''I am the most balanced reg on the river at 200z''
''You guys are just jealous because of my hard work'' You play 3 hrs a day? 4 days a week and do pio perhaps another 30 min a day?

sometimes it's true your analysis are a bit contradictory and sometimes quite a bit off but overall I think you're making progress... and well you shouldn't give much of a **** about mzbourg or mirage's opinion, it's pretty worthless

I like how you confirm what I said and then call my opinion worthless.

Fwiw, I don't share opinions. I give facts.

Yea it's like a recreational aspect of poker to OP which is fine I guess. The thing is the strat stuff he says often makes no sense/is contradictory so it's pretty tilting to read. Good poker is about simplification.

Pio can easily lead to over or misapplication of theory...misapplication being much worse and I see a lot of from OP.

E.g. 4x overbet jam you can just jam 1.5-2x pot and I'm 99% certain villain calls same range as versus the huge overbet.

Someone is triggered, lol.

Btw, I don't view it like that, sure that I'm wrong a lot, but I post a lot too. Many strat posts I've made were right and insightful, the difference is that those who read and like it won't post "wp, I agree with you", but when someone dislikes them/won't agree/I'm wrong/won't even read and think I'm always wrong, they will just bash me and say how bad it is.

You look like someone who hates being proven wrong, so that's why you just troll people rather than do something constructive and accept failure if you're wrong and just learn with your mistakes.

I prefer my approach, there's a lot more to gain by risking failure and sometimes look silly than to try to never be wrong.

A 2x pot needs to work 66% of the time, 4x 80%. Villain is never folding FHs to a 2x pot, but he might vs a 4x. If he folds range otr the play will be way more profitable.

I see you're still pretending to be a somebody. You finally posted a graph from who knows where or, who, with an 18k sample, and expected to be taken seriously now? Thats even more embarrassing now. I strongly suspect the reason you have been encouraging poor rapid is because its plus ev for your mates in the pool. lolz

Get over yourself bro. No one is triggered by your results or jealous of you. Stop throwing around buzzwords.

How do you know this? It's super assumptive and mental leak to think of your opponents as "pussies"...I get heroed by weird **** all the time by people that have no reads on me and if someone has a note on you here they may just call you any Ax. In a vacuum I think AT is calling you no matter what...people just don't fold boats and it's a really bad idea to try and get them to.

I would just check back OTR here and expect to win. This is a super high variance play without much reward. You've talked about having issues with volume/tilt/mental game I mean there is no way if you had been called here you wouldn't be really tilted and felt less desire to grind.

Your volume is already really bad...I don't even play fastfold games, have other work aside from poker, and play way more hands than you per month (usually 6-8 tabling) with a much higher WR. I think my volume is bad too...

Just because I was curious I checked the hand in pio...not entirely accurate because it was MW but I don't have monker w/e though it doesn't change the results much:


Even if betting 4x pot were equal or slightly more EV than checking there is no way that introducing this level of variance is a long term winning play.

Xeno posted a graph somewhere? I haven't seen it but I assume it proved something I doubted so I owe an apology. My bad Xeno. good luck to you.
03-06-2019 , 03:03 AM
H1. You do the same lol sizing on every texture and regardless of number of villains. Awful

H3. Cbet flop, as played Raise that crappy sizing on turn.

H4. Awful.

H5. I'd say thats a plus ev play vs you.

H7. Deservedly owned.

H8. awful call.

H9. Awful. Do you even use PIO?


That T9 overbet jam is obv awful. Trying to get villains to even fold trips there is ******ed

Well it proves something, depending on how much of a muppet you are. No surprise you have been won over so easily.

So after he shared a graph (that you discredit) are you going to finally admit that you're a ***** and won't play him hu or are you still thinking?

Im not and have never tried to pretend to be anybody im not, get over yourself, you never had what it takes to succeed, your results won’t change you may as well just give up instead of being jealous of anybody who makes more money than you do

Honestly, I have to kinda side with Mirage here. All you showed was a 14k hand graph. Most regs play more than that in a week. Where's the rest?
03-06-2019 , 12:00 PM
H3: i think is a good fold OTR, would raise turns here i think
H4: yeah turn is a clear check, good river to go for it as played
H9: like it but you know there is no tripple barrel bluffs on nl50's

really nice results lately, keep it up!

I agree with everything but H9, people bluff a lot for triple barrels, I used to think that too, now I just call the good combos and fold the bad ones. Vs nits always folding ofc. Now vs competent regs I like calling.
