Thanks for the tips , i also realised after going through this thread that i posted in the wrong place I reckon my thread is not going to be as interesting as the other people here lol.
But things finally starting to turn around for me after being down almost 10 buyins now i am only down 5
Anyways if possible , mods could move this thread to where its appropriate.
Here's a recent hand i played - am i spewing? Should I fold pre , I don't have access to good preflop 4bet and 5bet charts - but according to the one i found i call so i did.
Anyways heres the hand.
I tried not using randomisers , i just actively reduced the amount of hero calls i have been doing in nl5 and that seems to print e.v...
But heres one where it just made sense in my head.

My nl5 thought process after calling pre.
Massive bet on flop by the sb - made no sense to me and generally speaking the pool of players tend to bet ridiculous when bluffing, I thought it was unlikely he had trip 10 10s and other sets , and only overpairs could potentialy bet for value and even then there's almost nothing calling this large sizing except really good draws, or hands that have you beat e.g sets. If he had bet third pot and half pot on the flop and turn i would have folded turn. But this large sizing made me feel like generally i have to call just simply because of mdf and protecting the top of my range. I also still had some equity cause he was unlikely to ever have the nuts on this flop. So even against an overpair I had 5 outs. I reckoned i would be able to get him all in with so much commited to the pot so I was okay with calling the flop. But felt like i should have folded the turn. Although in all cases the turn bet made no sense at all - it completes the straights, 10 9s hands get there and lot of . Generally speaking when a line makes no sense at all I call - which was working pretty well till then.
Looking back i realised that there simply aren't enough bluffs on the flop and on the turn. Non-overpair bluff hands will generally give up on the turn especially with it completing a straight and preflop caller here is more likely to have qjs etc.
Maybe I should only be calling with a diamonds on the turn.
