I'm guessing your issues with 100z are mainly mental. Yes the regs there are stronger but not strong enough to turn a 5bb winner into a >2bb loser. It's in your head.

It’s very difficult to infer anything of value about someone’s game from reading abstract large pots, so I wouldn’t really worry about blogging. I would say it has had at most a negligible effect on my win rate.
I would be stunned if this thread was affecting your WR at all. More likely your hud stats or someone seeing you call down 44 on J52rA5 BB v Btn in a 3bet pot and taking a note is killing your WR cause they know they can just barrel off anything for value after you call flop.

How does his wwsf or 3b matter there he can just have one of the bajillion combos of Ax. Also you're protected by having an ace in your range so it's just such a silly calldown and a massive own by the villain.

Nah just to not incinerate stacks in really dumb ways and constantly tilt and spew off 100 bigs. I don't expect GTO but your playstyle, which is mainly exploitive, is so far from GTO dunno why you would mention GTO.

FWIW I play 200-500nl and am very exploit focused.

Maybe they are watching twitch or playing a bunch of sites+tourneys while grinding cash you can't let timing tilt you.

Also I mention the JT hand a lot because all your HH posts contain a ton of hands like it and I just gave up on reading them. Like some standard hands and then just absurd wtf spew that is beyond words dunno what there is to say (AQ v 99...no it is not a valuebet get rekt I love being villain in that spot...T7s 3barrel no one folds there BB has lots of Ax in range....QQ aipf unlucky 99 aipf maybe we can be tighter in the SB but it's fine ul w/e).

Losing buyins leads to playing worse and of course on the session graph after you were stuck 4 buyins you lost 350 in like 100 hands.

For me at least it's just an ego boost reading his hands+responding and my advice is directed at other people reading the thread I know he's going to ignore all of it/never improve/be at micros forever.

So do you suggest me to give up every single bluff otr? Maybe ott too? I've been called really light sb vs bb, will comsider that.

AQ isn't as bad as it looks, if villain is x/r too many draws and random bluffs it's printing (even if he is calling all pps, I had 28% equity vs 99 and would have 36% vs a pp lower than tje board), if he folds some pps the jam is printing.

44 is terrible and relies on some assumptions to be +EV, I've never called that light before otr in a 3bp vs a triple, but I'm pretty sure villain wasn't valuebetting all Ax in there. If he bluffs with all gutshots unblocking the FD and some SCs he will overbluff if he valuebets AQ+ only in his triples.

I called that because people just overdo when the A come ott because it's a "scary card" and population overfolds. And I was very confused, because so far the only spots I saw I was beating people at 100z were in bluffcatching spots, in every other spot I was losing. And people overbluff turn on average in 3bp on these stakes.
03-24-2019 , 03:59 AM
H1,h3,h4,h6 from your previous post is the reason you're losing. Spews all of them. And it sounds stupid to say you will skip 100z and go to 200z.Play nl50 regain confidence and play again nl100.

I will admit that I don't read all of your strat posts/hands because it's just way too much but you seem to be an enthusiast of PIO. How about not deviating so much that you're calling down with hands like 44? Check out what PIO suggests to call with there and expand it a little bit. Seems logical to me at least. Somehow I doubt PIO would call turn with hands like 44.

With the gutshot maybe it calls, but yeah, if any 44 gets to the river I'm pretty sure it folds a lot

Yeah I'm literally suggesting that.

No I'm saying don't make stupid bluffs OTT or OTR. And know when to give up on a stupid bluff.

All of us make stupid bluffs but the difference is most people who take poker seriously don't bend over backwards trying to defend a losing play.
Quote:

Yeah it is and it requires a bunch of assumptions for it to be slightly break-even.

A really common leak while moving up is for players to assume a stake is much more aggressive than it is just because it is a higher one which causes shots to fail.

You are correct! We are folding river a ton but calling turn a lot

But what do we learn from this pio spot? That we should be folding turn (and can maybe fold flop vs. some villains) since this board is very often 3 barrelled, bluffs have tons of equity, and the population is underbluffing.

Maybe save up for some coaching, from someone reputable? Instead of taking another shot? Might just be good for mind-set, I mean, no sense in shotting nl100 if you're convinced you can't beat it?

Not sure which ranges did you use, but here pio defends 44 quite a bit. Used a smaller sizing OTF and locked to be a range cbet and turn sizing is bigger too.




River is a huge mistake vs pio, like one of the worst hands to call with lol. I'm so ******ed haha




But OOP is really playing a very straightforward strat, it bluffs close to 0 pure air hands, not even all FDs and it checks most of his gutshots(it's valuebetting less than a normal player would do too)




One thing I'm sure: OTT they will go a little more crazy than they should.
But I have 0 clue on wtf they're doing OTR, so I have to just fold in there. Will try to play a more reasonable strategy even though my opposition is far from reasonable.

Lol at folding flop, just make OOP cbet with range and see what pio is defending otf.

And your argument of foldin flop "because this texture gets barreled a lot" makes as much sense (if not less) than my reasoning behind making the calldown. Villain has a limited amount of value and is OOP, if he is really barreling that much he will overbluff.

I get what you're trying to do here: overfold flop to get stronger to the turn and defend more vs people in there (because you know people like overbluffing turn quite a bit). But you probably haven't thought about the very easy counter-exploit vs that:

Villains could just play straightforward ott and don't go out of line in there.

Overfolding flop vs range is easier to play, you allow yourself to make less mistakes later (like I did), but in the end you're just giving up free EV for villain and hoping he makes a mistake later on.

No coaching in the world will help me, I've already had 3 very good ones (brokenstars, finland and one guy that doesn't want his name to be posted) and I feel like I still haven't got the best of brokenstars taught me, still studying his material and learning from that.

And yeah, I will quit 100z for good, all my sessions at 100z look like just a superusing festival where people just raise me out of nowhere in spots I'm bluffing and I'm pretty sure they shouldn't have value, but somehow have or are turning a hand into a bluff because they think I'm out of line. Every 100z session I play I see something weird, like someone overbetting in a 3bp putting 60% of their stack in there, making the sickest call downs and plays I just can't understand.

While at 200z plays looked really straightforward, not much going on, villain's plays making sense and way lower aggression levels/5-bet bluffing going on.

Since my roll is almost close enough to play 200z I will just do that. Even if you guys are right (which is very likely) that I just level myself at 100z all day and I'm running like aids, there's a limit on how sane I can be after getting destroyed for so many times in there (it's like my 16th shot that failed in there).

The move up from 50z to 200z is hard, but I'm fine grinding 50z for a long time. Tbh if I had stick to 50z only last year my roll would be at least 15k today.

I literally said what my adjustment is why are you so focused on the idea that we should maybe fold the flop? Fwiw I usually don't fold flop it depends on villain though.

Actually if we are in danger of making huge mistakes on later streets (e.g. Massively overdefending river with one of worst possible bluffcatchers) we should fold the flop.

Yeah, gotta call flop and play later streets better, if not I shouldn't even be playing if I'm risking doing plays like that.

Btw, after looking at the 200z hands I lost I saw a lot of plays by me where I was just making very bad plays, way more than villains "soul reading me". Most of their calls were very std and I was just playing ******ed.
