Too late now

Well I was quite pessimistic, but now after beating Costa Rica and Nigeria think we are going to comfortably walk it lmao, I reckon we'll get quarters, face some top 5 team and go out unless we get lucky.

As for mirage stuff, idm constructive criticism or discussion as long as it's an open, receptive discussion and of little arrogance, which is wishful thinking on 2p2 lol. I've seen mirage post on some other PGCs and does sometimes get to the point where you do blindly attack OP and have such a negative bias towards hands, but tbf its up to you what you post I've got nothing against you. All I ask is people are respectful and just chill out pls

Last two days @100NLz, lol grind/sample I know but it feels good to get back into the grind. Currently just 2 tabling, getting used to HUD, strats etc again. I've found having breaks from poker is really refreshing and allows you to think more rationally and adapt to new strategies far quicker.

Haven't really been noting hands, not that there was any interesting ones tbf.

I'm going to post some more personal stuff here, should be helpful to write stuff down, be held somewhat accountable and perhaps get some advice from those who know more about stuff than me. Kinda hoping I can look back in a couple months and almost cringe at stuff, because that means I've made progress.

So my current summer goals are:

- Poker: Finish studying MPvBTN, BBvSB, SBvBTN 3BP and BTNvMP 3BP and get a 10k bankroll (out of my control though so not judging my summer by this, just for motivation)
- Fitness: Get back into gym but with a better diet for 'bulking'. I found it pretty easy to go to the gym 3+ times a week last summer, so hopefully should be calm.
- Mindset: I've lost my confidence/arrogance almost invincibility that I used to have, always questioning myself, worrying about the small things and a bit mood swingy. I see myself as a realist but with high standards, so when I'm not at near the level I want to be I am very critical of myself. Going to try reading a book each week or two, umm and might google some stuff idk. Going to the gym should help too.

My immediate plans are to plan out this summer tomorrow, finish my MPvBTN study, hit the gym Wednesday and grind when I feel like it for now. Feel free to give any of your thoughts on the above, gl at tables

Subbed. Just started playing zoom myself at 100nl so should be playing vs each other decent amount. See you at the tables. What's your screen name btw? glgl

Sub'd.

That 44 hand from the 'nit' was so awesome lol.

Cheers lads. As for my sn, you'll have to wait n find out

Starting 3 tabling again, starting to get back into the swing of things. I still feel quite mentally tired, I'm getting fatigued quite easy so I might either take some days off or just take it slow.


H1: Imo can do anything otf with this hand and it be fine. It's so hard to figure out the best play in these positions since ranges are so tight any hands included can alter the strat lots. Obvs not XC once I see this hand at SD. Heroed river due to most clubs barreling, being somewhat high in my range and not having A (i.e blocking AJ) is good, so I'd fold AA/AQ etc. edit: wanted to make it clear that I'm just trying out strats I've learnt, so may be overapplying strats like I am here to unknowns.

H2: Not sure about this one, in game I thought 2.5X potting didn't make sense in terms of how many bluffs I had and how uncapped they were, but afterwards I'm thinking is 9X able to fold there, I don't think it can. So perhaps we should be jamming here as I don't think people can fold 9X. Then the difference between betting/checking is close imo, depends how much they B/C or fold to a bet.

H3: Looks spazzy af haha, so I am going to justify with the logic I used in game. So imo villain should be betting this flop a lot even if we are deep so I expect weak X back ranges with little to no 8X/3X/sets/2P. Whereas I have all of these, so it makes sense to value bet turn with sets. River 2X pot makes sense:
- 9/11 full houses, 1 quad, 15 straights. About 26 value. Need 40% bluffs, so 17 combos of bluffs.
- In all honestly, in game I won't be knowing that I need to bluff 17 combos. But I think combining KQs-KTs/QJs-QTs/T9s, not bluffing hearts it is going to be reasonably balanced.
Imo the guys flop check is a big mistake at this stack depth, and a snap river call is quite optimistic without any history on me (as in I don't think he's seen me 'spazz'). If anyone disagrees, I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on this hand.

H4: This is the one hand I think my rustiness got to me. I'm okay with the 4B and cbet, turn is fine too imo. I should just be giving up river imo, their range is mostly made up of AK+ hands especially given their somewhat tight stats. I even think AK is a thin jam there and will be chopping majority of the time.

Might play tomorrow, might not. Think it may be best to take a few proper days off to chill and then really start grinding hard. gl.

H1: i think i maybe lean to x/r he otf just because i feel a lot of players bet this spot too wide and you dont block fds. otr i agree he has v few value hands that make sense, maybe like AQ with the Ac but even that may bet the turn.

H2: he probs doesnt have too many hands that will bluff the river so a bet imo is better than checking because he will just check back all his Tx and maybe even stronger?

H3: seems fine to me given as long as your balanced, altho i disagree that him betting flop is a mistake, esp if he isnt 3betting suited connectors he isnt going to have many hands that can call a raise easily compared to you so facing a raise isnt ideal, dont quote me tho

H4: if you think that he bets too often ott vs your 1/3 maybe its better to go for a x/r? you have/can have AA, QQ, AQ, A8, A7 and 87 or maybe im just in spewtard mode trying to get that redline up

In reverse order.

X TT otf, bet safe turns. I would literally just fold pre to a 3% 3bettor. Nitty af, I know.

The Ts9s looks okay. He seriously "I has a straight" snap called? After thinking about his call, it makes sense since the only 8x he checks flop are probably 87s, so he would have to defend something. I may have called as V, but surely wouldn't have snapped.

Overbet J9 otr and pray he is incapable of folding 9x or 2p+.

Checking KK is okay, although I would xr.

someone else on that bulk grind. icu. lul gl <3

H2. Must bet the river because he is checking back probably 100% there with no bluffs. I would bet 1/3, and 9x would still raise you often.

H3. Villains call was horrible lol. He should be betting flop also that deep I agree. Seems like a typical garbage reg if he called 2x pot jam there. Just value town him in the future. Even Calling with top of straight there would be bad imo vs your line.

H4. Simple xf turn, Your turning the wrong hand into a bluff on a board that smashes his range. This was a punt. 4bet sizing was too small also vs the min open. Its not 2015.

So I've looked back over the hands and your thoughts today and here's what I think now:
H1 KK: XC fine, should XR or bet large percentage of time. Should use HUD/no. of tables villain is playing on to help decide.
H2: Still unsure. I feel shove > B75 > XS, due to near 0 natural bluffs for BB and with B75 it's what I'd bluff for, and theoretically should get called by 2P/sets, therefore if they fold to these we still profit. I also doubt anyones sick enough to fold a 9 there.
H3: Yup he did snap call. Imo needs to be cbetting that flop with that hand because it makes so many nutted hands by the river so it really incentives increasing pot size. Still fine with my play. Not sure about the call, it's quite hard for me to be overbluffing and more likely pool is underbluffing. I do defo think snapping is crazy tho.
H4: Sizing pre could be 2/3BB more but w/e. Still fine with turn bet, it's just bottom of my range and blocks less than JJ etc.

I have been playing a couple hours here and there over the last few days and realised I had been too theoretical since I started playing again, bluffing fish or unknowns has been the biggest issue. Simple stuff really it's just currently missing or not so significant in my thinking as it was before. Just posting this to make is prevalent in my mind from when I'm playing now. Running quite bad last few days along with a few debateable mistakes that I wouldn't have made before, but we continue on

14/06/2018
Nasstyy day, but overall I am pleased with how I played. During the day I finished my MPvBTN studying and printed off my notes so now I'll look over them while sunbathing (hopefully lol) the next few days.
Disgusting graph but a decent red line, I'll take it.


My mental game was perfectly fine today, really happy with how I handed losses and carried on playing as I felt I was still playing my top game. Reviewed all my $20+ loss pots, here are bad beats/folds/possible spews:

H1: Can't go for a crazy fold here SBvBB. Can have lots of single clubs or KX wanting to shove to realise/deny equity respectively.

Ehhhhyyy, more good volume today, yesterdays losses made up and still a good looking red line. Below graph of last two days btw.

Happy with my game, studying is really enjoyable when you see some reg making a huge mistake like betting when they shouldn't have a betting range + exploiting that. Not sure about volume on weekend with it being Father's day Sunday and I've got some stuff to do. Will try play some hands and get some studying in too.

16/06/18
Meh day, ran good and bad. Was very busy today so not much volume but still managed to get some studying in which is good.

H1: hahahahahahaha, p sure this guy was a nitreg too

In, best of luck to you

are you bluffing or vbetting in h2 otr? either way it's a clear xb.

Cheers, tuned into your stream the other day and thought it was really good.

As for 99, I thought SB should bet quite a few AX there on the river due to BB range betting flop they end up with quite a wide river range. But turns out from what I can make of it, SB range checks this river to help get it's weaker hands to SD. Yet I think the pool, who usually leave a wasteland of a X range all over the place, will bet AX there >30% time or so, which makes it profitable. Obviously value, bluffing there would be silly.

19/06/2018
Been playing the last few days but haven't updated. Sunday I played a reasonable amount but ended up quiting early due to runbad and concern it would affect my game. Didn't really feel like updating this since it was late too. Played a bit yesterday but mostly got some **** done and watched the England game . Played quite a bit today too, graph is of the last 3 days.

Running awfully all over the place. Continously running into to top of ranges, or being bluffcatched by something ridiculous, it's quite frustrating. What I find more frustrating is when I get coolered and they have played it poorly by losing value, but that's poker enit. Still upbeat, still studying. A little worried that my game has altered in some way since coming back, but I think it's mostly the runbad causing that thinking. That's presuming I am running bad, and not being exposed lol

In the next few days I want to consilidate on the work I've done so far and ensure that I'm actually applying it correctly. Gunna make a consious effort to focus on exploitative plays that I have possibly be missing as they are incredibly +EV. From the stuff I've seen a large majority of regs do I'm still very positive, and I know I've got my own leaks but my progress > theirs.
gl to anyone reading + playing in the next few days x

Watched England almost get robbed lmao

Appreciate it, ty

I am sure oop is supposed to block a lot of Ax, yea. Regardless, you won't be able to find enough bluffs here after the x ott, plus you haven't even got a club blocker to merit the thin vbet. Just xb, you need to ensure villain hero's worse (again, most of your bluffs cbet turn, lessening the chance of getting hero'd with this bxb line) more often than when he calls/raises with an A/T/flush, and that's not even including the times he bluffs you off the best hand

We played so well but also terribly at the same time. Just clocked that we play group H in the knockouts which is v good considering Colombia and Poland both lost their first games. Think we will see what we are made of vs Belgium tho

I'll defo have enough bluffs there OTR, got lots of crappy 3B bluffs there with poor bluffing characteristics, 98o etc for example, and this turn shouldn't be bet as high frequencies as loads of other turns. Maybe you've read the hand wrong because we have a full house?, so I would've thought having a club is if anything a bad thing as you want the chance of them heroing K9cc/98cc etc. I get where you are coming from, I know it's thin and marginal, but equally if they overfold our bluffs profit, and it certaintly shouldn't even remotely be considered as a bluff.

More run bad. Man it's crazy how many times the last week I've been at bottom of my range facing a raise, or consistently being called by the very top (sometimes shouldn't be in range) of their range. Seems like every 3B I make there's an overcard or never getting paid by the top of my range. Obvs I'm a little ***** complaining about a small bit of variance but w/e, will make winning even more sweeter. Been 2 tabling today just to focus on all spots far better, still happy with my game.

I know I've stopped posting hands when I'm losing, I am still marking hands and checking them over but haven't felt like sharing them. It's mostly me being frustrated making me lazy after a sesh and also not wanting to spam this thread with bad beats. It prevents me second doubting myself as much which is helpful during a ds imo, don't think it's much of a mental leak.

Same as usual for tomorrow, hopefully it goes better

Bl son, defs post hands if you feel you need feedback, nothing wrong with posting losing hands, Will does it all the time

What am I missing here? your losing your mind over a 7 buy in down swing? Man up, its literally nothing. Post some hands, fitz might be able to help you with his 5nl perspective.

right yea sorry I did misread the board, that definitely changes a lot and probably makes your play ok at equilibrium. That being said, if you think your bluffs overperform here, your weakest vbets will therefore underperform.

glgl

That would be great to be fair, fitz helping me from his 5NL perspective, you helping me from your 10NL perspective that would be really beneficial. It's comical how insecure you are about yourself that you have to consistently go to players threads, who play @ higher stakes than you, and sh*t on them to justify why you're not playing as high stakes as them. Mate I don't mind criticism where there is some benefit to some parties, but your post doesn't contribute anything whatsoever except negativity, as I've already stated I'm a lil betch. £700 is a fair bit of money to me right now, yet I'm still playing good poker (not losing my mind lmao), kinda crazy how what I've lost in a week is probs more than you've made in your online lifetime lol. It's so easy for you to sh*tpost on people who expose themselves, yet you hid away revealing very little. All I ask is if you're going to post something in this thread, make it helpful and constructive, not negative just to satisfy your own ego.

@clanty I totally agree, marginal value spot and can defo see a fair bit of overfolding there too. gl, all the best.
