everyone would have an insane higher winrate if they didn't tilt. My BS plays aren't that bad though, some are massive -EV, but most of them are +EV

You're mistaking tilt for spew

Nice graph mate Hahah even when you post some decent results people find a way to be negative

yeah, I'm happy with those results, it's really a big achievement for someone like me with really bad mental game to show up winning in 50z, it's not like people are just donating money there all the time like on NL2 and NL16(from my experience NL16 is the second softest stake lol).

I've put an insane amount of effort in order to make it go like that, ofc most people would have done way better than I did given my effort, but I love this game, most of it happened while having tons of fun!

Raining really hard here, internet sucks, electricity is going off, meh. So annoying to not be able to put volume when I want to.

H1: really bad move by me, it's a raise-fold OTT, I only had 33 hands on the guy, but he was shaping to be quite passive, ended up calling thinking he could have some draws(board was quite draw heavy). With the little info I had I couldn't make this fold, if I had like more 30 hands on him I think I could have done it. Is it ok to call here vs a 31/25, <1 AF over 33 hands? I think these guys usually just call with their draws.

H2: vs 20/12, he had a 8% 3-bet stat( 3/53), I think I could call turn to fold river, right? I've seen some nits show up with AK there and give up OTR. I think in UTG dynamics it's ok to just fold turn, specially OOP, but in a steal scenario is quite too tight.

H4: was pondering calling, folding or raising there lol. He was really aggro, probably capable of showing with random bluffs. When I saw his hand OTR I felt quite bad because I know I'm jamming the river with some hands both as a bluff and as thin value that would have gotten owned there.

H5: flop call was quite light, OTR I think he can't have FHs for that sizing, people never check back with straights OTT, and if they do they don't use that sizing. Was kind of an overplay by me, but people usually fold 100% there vs my sizing in that spot. He probably has tons of small PPs like 88, 77.

You really shouldn't ever be pondering a raise in h4. Fairly sure you can c/f flop in the last hand most of the time, but I imagine a float should be done at a small frequency with that combo.

I see your still opening ATo utg. The fact you hit your ace and folded should make it clear why you shouldn't open that trash utg. Float on flop last hand is lol. Surprised you are somehow winning at 50z so far. The pool must be softer than ever. You have prob spewed off 5bb/100.

h1 gotta suck out sometimes
h2 is meh/fine imo
h3 nh
h4 seems to be where we start spewing sometimes instead of realising sdv vs a random range
h5 ^ why 'some freq with that combo'? Repping like 2 combos of 9Ts, do you have TT? I get why you did it and likely it makes $

wp on results sir

Don't be happy with your results. You can do a lot better with minimal more effort and focus.

yeah, I think I ran hot in the sample on non-all in spots, will keep doing my best to avoid spew and to apply what I learned

I never have a value hand on that spot, maybe a super random TT and misclicks
but I think villain folds close to 100% of his range vs that sizing. Super exploitable, but I don't make that play often

AT has excellent blocking value vs 3-bets, I used to open 100%, but doing it only with tight line ups or when there's a whale in the blinds.

dat respect!!
I don't know what this guy folded, he was quite nitty, but I've seen him cold 4-bet bluff before vs me, 3-bettor was a very light one, which would make him more likely to be bluffing.

He tanked until the last second and folded lol!!! Probably had something like TT.

Right, I mean I'm obv not good but I would call you down on a good day there. Still +ev but I still think it's worth being able to rep some value hands when we take a nutted line.

the thing is that I play in a pool where people can't get much reads on other players, vs the population that call is a massive -EV play, it's just insane to call a min-raise there, imagine that 2x pot. Vs some regs that think I overbluff I'm not making this move, but vs random people that look like capable of folding it's fine.

you play fine, man, calling that river isn't a question of being good or bad. In that spot the only people that have a calling range are regs with reads and whales, even semi-fish overfold there. I make very dangerous moves, but if I think I can get away with them, I don't hesitate, these small pots add a ton to the winrate, being able to just steal a 10bb pot out of nowhere from time to time is insane.

that spot was ok, but the real problem is when it's enough, making moves like that can get me into spewing mode very easily, also making those plays vs villains that aren't capped is a disaster.

You've come a long way from your redline warrior spewtard days. You're officially a good player now, grats mate you earned it.

Played a really cool session today, tons of fun players and weird plays going on lol!

Some hands

H1: vs whale lol I usually don't go that big MW, but vs those 2 guys I wasn't going anywhere OTT

H2: vs aggro fish, he was 3-betting A2-A4o, vs that kind of range and probably 100% cbets I shouldn't do much folding. Decided to raise this hand then, since my SDV isn't that big. Good call OTR? People usually underbluff for that sizing, but I doubt he would valuebet AK there for that sizing too.

H4: vs the one I consider the best reg of 50z, I haven't played with anyone better than him on 50z and 100z, guy plays sooooo well and is capable of bluffing, valuebetting thin. It's quite interesting why someone like that is at 50z. My theory is that even though he plays well vs regs and has a tough game to beat, he probably doesn't play well vs fish.
I think he is probably calling a ton on spots where people don't bluff ever.

In this hand I underestimated him and thought he wouldn't ever check FDs OTR, so I thought my blockers were not relevant, if I could go back in time I would fold this and call with heart blockers. He probably has a bluffing range in that spot too, maybe he is even valuebetting worse.

H7: vs guy that was 3-betting quite light, OTF I thought he was check-raising all overpairs, so I played as if he had tons of AdKx, AdQx, since I don't block those hands, I thought he would fold a ton OTT. Good too have some airballs in this spot? It's a spot where vs my value range he has close to 0 equity and that my bluffs have a ton of equity vs his calling range.

Might have to take this back hehe

Rapid, I realize that you tilt sometimes and show hands that aren't played perfectly. How about you work on controlling the tilt and show hands that you actually have questions about? 95% of the time you show these hands and you're not accepting of advice because of some awesome read you had or some other excuse for a bad play.

With things like the above, you don't want advice. You want to hear "yeah, it was a good play". Drop the ego and try to play well and take/listen to advice.

gl out there

I'm sorry if it looked like that, I try to post the most interesting spots here, so it's hard to write everything I think in every hand.

I thought people would go crazy about opening J6o or jamming turn with A5, but I was surprised you didn't like H9. Why do you think it's bad?

h9 is overplay

if you wanted to jam turn bet bigger on the flop.

No, the jam ott in H9 is not good. You're only getting called by better, and no I didn't look at the spoilers beforehand. Very few people at 50z will look you up with anything less than top pair in that spot. You've got the redraw to the flush as well as the straight, just bet medium/large and ship on nice rivers.

Ya it might be nice to see why you think someone is a bit / whale. Specific hands they played before or stats would be great context

these were his stats, my reasoning behind jamming the turn was that he would probably make more mistakes vs a jam than vs a 33% OTT, I thought he would call a ton OTT with his TQ/JQ/AT/AJ/9T to fold OTR without improving. So I just jammed to get the money in, even if he had me beat I had 9 outs to beat Q9 and 6 for a chop.

It was quite optimistic, but this is a 60 vpip player, when I see someone like that I try to go for it. It's not like I was doing it vs a 18/10 nit, vs those guys I'm checking turn to avoid getting stacked since AQ is a huge part of his range.
