This is my pooh-bah post, i put it in mirco stakes, but as i post in here, i though i would post in here too
Firstly- THIS IS NOT GROUND BREAKING NEWS
Secondly- 99% of Ubbver’s/Brewer’s+ good players know this ****
I’m putting this bit into a spoiler, as it’s a bit of a background to where I sort of had a bit of a aaaaahhh moment, its totally irrelevant, so you can skip it
also, i typed this up very quickly in my lunch break, there will be lots of spelling mistakes, and probably some flaws in my thinking, but so ****, ahaha
IF YOU ARE FAT OR EASILY OFFENDED TO THIS/OUR SENSTIVE, DO NOT READ THIS AS IT MAY OR MAY NOT OFFEND YOU
WHATS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A GOOD REG AND A BAD REG
At first, I start thinking
Well, ldo, a good reg makes money, a bad reg loses moneys, easy
True
Why is this??
Well, hmmm, a good reg will value bet more, hand read more, maybe 3bet more, hmm, easy again!! This is all true, but the bad reg does this all to, the bad reg 3bets light/value, the bad regs triple/double barrels value bets, to a certain extent they hand read, so how come he still loses moneys
Hmmmmmm
Blank stare forward, 2minutes on the clock
Well hmmm, I know, a good reg makes less mistakes than a bad reg, bingo I think, this is true, but why is this. Surely its pretty easy to make less mistakes,
Hmmm, then boom, its clicks
The difference between a good reg and a bad reg is
Bad regs, simply, click buttons, without putting hardly any thought into the situation. They rarely, rarely, even analyse a situation. They look down and see 2 cards, and either cum, or auto fold.
A good reg, however, will subconsciously, will look at positions, stack sizes, recent image, recent pots, there card strength, there stats, his stats, and a super side load of variables, and come up with a plan
Take this simple every day situation
Utg= fish
CO= standard weak-tight reg with 19/17 type stats
UTG: $35
MP: $55
CO: $63.23
Hero: $72.15
SB: $50.00
BB: $65.00
Pre Flop: ($0.75) Hero is BTN with junkish hands
UTG calls $0.50, 1 fold, MP raises $2, Hero ????
So, the bad reg is easy, he looks at his cards, probably before anything has happens, and instant snap folds
Before you read spoiler, tell me, truthfully, what did u auto do
Another STANDARD situation
UTG ($50)
Hero ($50)
BTN ($50.16)
SB ($30.04)
BB ($40)
Pre-Flop: ($0.75, 5 players) Hero is BB A
Q 
1 fold, Hero raises to $1.50,BTN calls $1.50, 2 folds
Flop: A
K
3 ($3.75, 2 players)
Hero bets $x, BTN calls $x
Turn: 7 ($xx, 2 players)
Hero ??
Reads, villain is tag-ish type player with something like 20/17 stats
Bad player, looks at the board, looks at his tag stats, and value bets, he probably hits his 2/3 pot button on the flop and turn,
easy, this is a standard situation mark- you’re a prick, who wouldn’t do this
Good player, looks at positions, knows he can be floating this board wide especially IP, as we will cbet it relentlessly with almost 100% of our opening range. He will look at his fold to cbet, and if he notices its very low, and notices his high fold to turn bet, and notices he bets lots on the turn. HE WILL LOOK AT THIS, he doesn’t auto pilot bet/bet. He looks, he sees, he then instantly understands how we exploit the complete bollix out of this reg,
We cbet BIG, we c/raise, or c/c ALL turns with our value hands
Or
We cbet BIG, then we double barrel all our air
Why is this, its simple, he doesn’t respect cbets, so he floats a lot, so we exploit this, by betting bet as he calls too much, then we either allow him to bluff us off our value hands, ahaha, or we double barrel to make him fold all his weak range that he floats with. Simple
Even if u don’t use stats, a good player will have some reads on all player, every after 30 hands, you can get reads on players actions- ESPECIALLY FISH DONK BETS/BETSIZING
How many bad regs even thought for a split second about anything, about exploiting players, about getting max value, they just see there own card strength, and hit random buttons, they double barrel, reg folds, and they go to next hand without thinking about anything at all
Another really simple situation,
You face a standard cbet IP,
99% of bad players will look at there own card strength and will fold out air, and continue strongish, aka top pair, or w/e
A good player, will look at the bet size, is this a bet size this particular player would use as a bluff, for value, he will look at positions, stack sizes, board texture, think of his Preflop action/sizing etc etc, and make a decision, he will not click a button randomly, without at least weighting up how much equity he has, how much this player will c/f the turn, he will look at turn bet stats, he will have reads on the player, and he will float very light to steal turns, he will raise him when he has equity,
STOP, LOOK, THINKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK, ANALYSIS THE SITUATION FULLY, MAKE READS, USE READS, EXPLIOT
Stop auto piloting, think about bet sizes, think about ranges, think about positions, think about tendencies, JUST F U C KING THINK, and enjoy yourself
just some random thoughts i had, and thought i would share with the bad regs, fwiw, take it with a pinch of salt
should add
just because you think about decisions wont make you a winning player, but it will help your game greatly, it will help you find leaks, if you strenghten your thought process about why your doing xyz, it will help your win rate imo!
feel free to add any thoughts yourself
