last 2 hands are wp imo, the rest is really bad(after taking a second look) k7o is the best of the first 5, but hard to know if it's really good

thinking here a little bit with a clear mind, I was tilted when playing 100z. How can I overcome that? It was the same for me when moving to 25z, was always losing, then skipped it and went for 50z.

Lack of confidence probably, try doing fixed bi shot like 1 or 2 bi and detach fro money

could you link the hand I slowrolled you?
I don't do it on purpose, even vs people who had slowrolled me I don't do that, maybe I took some time to call because of those reasons:

1- Had a tough decision on other table
2- I actually think about folding monsters that are snap calls by anyone in the pool, so sometimes other people may think "oh, yeah, avoided the snap call, so my 2-pair is good", then I call with a set lol.
3- I'm a quite paranoid person, so I like checking with my flushes if there isn't any FH possible or straight flush possible, same with straights, even with the nuts I check the board like 5 times just to be sure I have the nuts lol.
4- In chop scenarios I think about just calling to avoid paying more rake too

sorry for that, but it's the way I play, but I think I've never took more than 10s to call with the nuts.

Interesting that you say "major spew" when one of your crazy river bluff raises don't work (hand 3). Then when it does work (hand 5), you give some justification like "strong blockers" therefore "wp by me". Very results oriented thinking and probably a mindset you need to get out of.

The reasoning behind both was different when I was playing.
In the K7o I thought had a ton of value combos, blocked the most key card in the deck(7c), also villain had to be super careful with his straight valuebets, in the 88 hand my reasoning was "oh, he is thin valuebetting, let's jam because he will fold in this spot where I can't have a ton of valuehands"

both look like spew, but I believe 88 could be a jam in GTO, but not with 8d, better with 8h.

In my own case tilt manifests as becoming angry, not thinking clearly and not paying much attention anymore. I know it´s happening because my breathing pattern changes, so my plan from now on is just to stop playing and take some time off the tables. Funny thing is, when it happens, I keeping telling myself that I should calm down, that it is illogical to be angry in a game where things like bad beats are so normal, cards have no memory etc, but it doesn´t work that way.

My advice is: 1- it´s always better to be overrolled if you are not 100% confident, and not check results when playing, even better is not checking results for the whole week, which is what I´m trying to achieve 2- as the other guy said, play very short sessions, 3- try to always be aware of your own breathing, and keep it very relaxed, 4- sit out immediately if you see any changes in 3 without any apparent reason.

thanks for the tips, man, yeah, I don't check results more during sessions, usually once a week, could do better in that. Short sessions are hard for me, but I keep them at 1h on average, when moving up to 100z will go for those 15 min ones.

How can you be aware of your own breathing? It's so hard to have a good mental game, but everyone has that problem, we're humans after all.

Should take a step back, acknowledge you’re angry and let it pass rather than blame yourself for experiencing emotions imo.
Latter doesn’t work because you’re just pouring more negative emotions on top of the ones you already feel.

Why didn't you 4bet in hand 2?

Before playing, sit down and relax, paying attention to your breathing until it slows down. Then open the tables, and try to play while still paying attention to your own breathing (you´ll see it´s not like multitasking, it´s way easier, and you can even think normally while doing it). If you get angry for any reason, you´ll see it´s impossible to control your breathing, it will become "heavier". So you can use that as a signal to just stop playing.

AK isn't an auto-4-bet, even CO vs BB imo, usually today CO's ranges are almost as tight as UTG when there's a good player in the BTN, also BB's 3-bet is way tighter vs CO. SB's 3-bet is wider if villain is playing a 3-bet or fold strat, making 4-betting AK a better move.

Tbh, 50z and 100z are very nitty environments, it's not like I'm happy about 4-bet-calling with AKs even B vs B or BTN vs CO.
03-25-2018 , 12:05 PM
AKs is an auto 4bet against a properly balanced strategy from BB vs CO, maybe it's at 95% or something but you can just do it 100% and it's fine, if villain is 3betting way too tight then yeah you may want to start flatting your AKs a bit more

yeah, getting better at leaving the tables when tilting. When I tilt I don't go super angry, I feel like dizzy and very confused, like if my vision is blurred or something like that lol.

One of the reasons why I think poker will never be dead is because of the human factor, this game is so tilting, like even more tilting than hearthstone or playing dota with people from mexico/peru lol. Even a very good player will tilt, just saw one hand in the high stakes thread where OBORRA went super nuts with 73o with no equity on AK8A9 overbetting turn and jamming river for like 4x pot(don't know if it was tilt or his GTO bot, but probably tilt imo)

well pointed lol
Half of the population 3-bets less than 5% and guy was unknown, and even aggro regs will 3-bet tighter vs another unknown(me), so that number goes even lower than that.

And I'm not sure if vs a 20% open from CO villain will be 3-betting so much from the BB when he has the option to call. He even shouldn't 3-bet all his suited broadways combos vs that
03-25-2018 , 01:41 PM
Played a very sick hand vs the same villain that made that overbet with 85o. I usually reset my stacks, but this hand happened right after stacked one guy.

My turn check is very explo and really bad in theory, I think OTT I should barrel at a very high frequency with 33%(probably range turn cbet), but villain was capable of bluffing and went for the trap.

I like his play, it's good, right? Specially after my sick calldown with 77, he is supposed to jam AQ for value there because my 4-bet range has a ton of bluffs that have an A, also QQ/KK are in a very tough spot. I think that guy is a very good opponent, most people chicken up OTR and x back AQ or make a 33% bet-fold lol.

Is checking turn sometimes any good to prevent getting owned OTR by his move(if he were playing a balanced strategy rather than his usual explo one).

Btw, I was x/jamming river if he didn't overbet jam lol. This pot is one of the reasons why I don't play deep, so many gross spots, specially with overbetting going on.

this is wp, turn check is fine and your thought process for always continuuing on this turn oop in a 4bp 168 deep is incorrect. Also his river jam is only acceptable if you never have > AQ here which is obviously incorrect since you have AK.

turn check is pretty bad with this combo

should continue with the AKhh over the AKcc/AKdd more often, but I doubt it's a big difference.

isnt it the other way around? all the floats are spades clubs and diamonds
03-25-2018 , 08:01 PM
It honestly makes 0 difference in this spot. Just x ak sometimes
