^i didnt find those limits to be That much different, although the competence level of the field as a whole definetely improves. If you're beating plo5 at 27bb/100 you should have no problems crushing plo10.

Can you post here when you start? 2p2 time and my local time are different, so hard to figure out
04-23-2015 , 11:00 AM

When I am watching other streams I can choose between 4 qualities and I usually go for low since Cambodia internet can not handle medium and high but this doesn't seem to be option in this case and it is always high and lagging very hard. Any idea why?
04-23-2015 , 11:59 AM
^cause i'm not a partner on twitch

Anyways, day 19's on in 10!
04-23-2015 , 12:07 PM

there's a setting on twitch to be emailed when the streamer goes live.
Usually displayed on the page after you 'follow' the streamer.

04-23-2015 , 06:21 PM
It was a really fun session to watch actually So don't feel bad for the mediocre end result, you'll get there

Wanne say again. Best Thread/Stream ever.Im learning so much.One leak i hopefully learned to fix from ur Stream is, that i was way too loose from UTG and folded too much from the BB.Now im defending very wide and its doing good..

Its good to see that even an mid/highstakes reg is affected by running bad and how you deal with it.

You sometimes open MP+ with 3BB open and sometimes i see 3.5BB is there anything about it?I saw in another Thread some discussion about not 3betting fullpot IP/OOP what do you think about it?

Misclick most likely, my standard sizing from MP is full pot.

In my oppionion it is a mistake to not 3bet full pot if every player in the hand is 100+bb deep.

It will be interesting to see if and how the micro zoom games changes due to your challenge. It might attract new players but also fix alot of basic leaks of weaker regs.

It's easy to copy someones style, yet it's impossible to copy someones skills

Nutblocker: What are the micro players’ 3 biggest leaks in general?

Alexey: They also play very straightforward postflop. Regulars folding 80% to cbet in single raised pot is kind of insane if you think about it. Pretty much means they only continue if they connect with the board Really well – this has allowed me to up my cbet frequency. I’m now cbetting almost all my air, even 3way.
In general micro players are not fighting back enough on lock down boards, I’ve been able to c/r bluff people on paired boards to no end and it seems that most are simply not continuing without trips+
Aren't these two quotes a bit contradictory? If people are not folding, bluffing too much would be suicidal. If they are not fighting back enough as you say, you can bluff every half decent board with impunity. How can both be true at the same time?

If you say the vast majority of micro players are not fighting back on lockdown boards without the goods then the right adjustment for a reg should be indeed to fold fairly strong hands when they meet resistance in those situations, right? This is especially true on paired boards where there are no obvious blockers one could have (even micro players bluff naked A on a monotone board sometimes). If they don't know who you are and how you play, default play should be to fold strong overpairs and and all draws when someone c/r s on a 662 board, no? Unless it is like 5-bet pot and you are getting ridiculous odds of course. This kinda shows the value of doing things differently than 90% of the other players.

Gavrik, everything you says makes sense, not sure where you see the contradiction in my statements. Basically, its easy to take small stabs (with bets and small raises) in a lot of spots, and if people dont have the goods they'll fold. But when the pots get big micro people have trouble folding any decent piece because they've already invested a lot into the pot and feel attached to it.

Anyways, played a short little daytime session before lunch:

Time: 1:54
Hands: 1193
Net: $166,09(27,84bb/100)
