evening all

just getting back into playing after a break and am currently grinding $1 45s on stars. used to play staked on the daaaaang team and was playing a lot of 4 180s. i'm rusty as hell at the moment but looking to trade emails back and forth (regular times to be on skype might be difficult but if you have any ideas then give me a shout)

email: mrbarrow@hotmail.co.uk

Hey. I`m looking for some active players in 180s (3r,8,15), to talk strategy, calculate spots and do hh reviews.
Now I`m playing only reb`s, but I will start adding 8s & 15s soon!

I'll add you when I get to your stakes

playing 7s atm. By the way i saw you made a pretty funny missclick on a final table of a 7 yesterday, tarped pre then folded to leave yourself with 3/4 of one BB lol

I don't understand what this means.

I have a 7.4% ROI in the $15-$30 45 mans in my last 4.5 K games (since January 2012). I know this isn't the ceiling for ROI, hence I am looking to improve.

Movin.target is still arrogant from his (self-admitted) huge heater in 180s.

But seriously mate, based on that missclick and a few other possible ones, how many tables tables are you playing?

Just seems that making missclicks 4 handed is pretty costly.

Iirc it wasn't a misclick. I was getting 10 to 1 after the flop and my read told me I didn't have enough equity to call. Was super weird hand, I prob do stuff like that once every few months.

I 20 table at my peak.

Even if you weren't getting the right price at 11-1 (which you definitely were) then you might as well call anyway, because you weren't going to money jump against the other stacks.

A move I make once a month or so is a "huge leak"?

The pot got 3-handed. I had a read that the guy had an ace. It was a sizing tell. I had 79s on something like a A26 board, with no hope of a backdoor flush. I wasn't getting the right price, even though I was getting laid 9:1.

I trust my instincts. I can hand read a little.

It's the thought process behind it that's the leak.

You were getting 11-1, you need 7% equity to call... Considering you were practically all in pre, his range isn't exactly super tight. Against his pf calling range of a 3.5bb shove you have about 12% equity.

And you got a read he had an ace because he min bet... Which considering you tarped is all of his range.

Why would you not jam pre if you're going to fold a flop?

I wasn't getting 11:1. And if I was, I would have needed 8.3% to call. Against any ace and sets, I had just 4.8%. I had reason to believe he was strong there.

I made an unusual play based on what I thought was a pristine read. It's called a hero fold.

Can I post it in SNGMTT? You're giving him way too much credit with a range of an ace and sets only. Pot was 10k + his 1k bet = 11k you have 1k left

And what link?

Can you post the hand? Sure, do you have a copy of the HH? Apparently you do; I've been going off of memory.

I'm quite certain the consensus will be that I need to get it in at some point. That's where the "hero" parts comes in.

My bad. I thought maybe you were looking at my last 1 K games or something, where I have gone through a break even stretch.

Sorry mate, I think me and pghfan both thought you were mocking him.

I think it's really common for 180 regs to do bad in 45s because the late stage plays sooo different.
