Like the idea. Both for americans who have their rolls locked/can't play on sites they used to, and for non-americans who can't play against americans anymore

Here you go

thx a lot Cangurino.

i don't know if this was covered already but i have huge leaks when i play in the SB, i'm not talking about my redline but talking about the fact that i don't know what is the optimal line if you flop big with 3+ppl behind you.

I also don't know which range of call/raise i have to use vs each position of the original raiser.

how about one on PUA?

No more of this?

I would try posting specific hands and get feedback on them.

Same question: Is the COTW series dead?

why is it everyone else's job to write one? anybody can write/start one...

Sorry, I guess that was taken the wrong way. I'm just starting uNL and was curious if this was dead. Sounds like it's just wanting for ideas and/or qualified authors.

anybody can start one at anytime...worst comes to worst, it just turns into a full conversation about the topic =)

I might get baller and try to start one this week then ;O

Somebody do a COTW about doing COTWs

I still stand by my suggestion

lol, thanks

As for a real idea, we all know to to look at our opponent's range, but very few people will look at their own hands as a part of a range. I think learning to play range vs range as opposed to hand vs range would be invaluable.

It's pretty complicated and I was just starting to scratch the surface, but unfortunately, I couldn't really master the subject due to black friday.

Anything by Bond18 is gold.

Salutations,

With the effects of black friday upon us, many former online players are limited to live poker. Although most strategical aspects of internet poker are applicable, broad gameplay differences between live and online play require adjustments necessary for great success. COTW's covering important adjustments in areas such as live preflop and felting ranges, limping, cbetting, postflop tendencies, tells, table talk, etc, could prevent costly mistakes for internet players.

Go to the Live Low Stakes No Limit forum: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/17...-low-stakes-nl

They have some COTMs (month) you may have to do a search for to find, but you should probably look there for all your live poker questions.

Thank you sir. I wasn't aware they had COTM's.

I still think there's validity to this forum having at least a couple more COTW's covering live play. Particularly because the COTW's can cover specific transitions for players with a specialization in uNL and SSNL full ring.


I brushed over LLSNL COTM's and the topics aren't very helpful for gameplay adjustments. uNL COTW's cover specific gameplay related strategies and the most important topics have been covered thoroughly. I'm simply suggesting a COTW that covers adjustments in these strategies for live play.

For example, in SSNLFR the typical preflop range is between 14/12 and 18/16. In live play its far more profitable to considerably loosen that range. The article wouldn't necessarily need to go in depth, because applicable topics such as position and reverse implied odds have already been covered thoroughly. A non in-depth article that covers a wide array of topics would be very useful, imo.

There's also a benefit of discussing strategy with a community of people familiar with each other who've been posting together for years.

what about a COTW on "exploiting stats of regs", i use some stats but surely i can't write an entire COTW :

Foldv3B : this is the most easy stat to abuse, if a an opponent has an 80%+ i like to 3bet him light IP, but more lighter when i'm on the BTN, i prefer have a blockers to his calling range of 3bet.

ATS : when i evalueting a 3bet as a restel i always check both ATS and Foldv3B and if the Foldv3B is low i check also the FoldvCB stat so i can build a plan of playing my re-steal.
greater is the ATS better odds you got to a succes re-steal, you should considere a resteal with stat ATS > 35 with an open raise from late position.

FoldvCB : when it is over 70%, a c-bet 1/2pot is enought.

Fold2blindsteal : more high this value is more crap you can raise from LP, a value over 75 could be exploited.

maybe this was already covered.

read the COTW I wrote on configuring HUDs...I talked about a decent amount of this

i had already read it, great cotw with a lot of example.

what i ask for the new cotw is the range where we can try to exploit safely, range when we are close, and range to don't exploit.

this could be done for every stat or combo stats vs the majority std REG 15/12 X X X X X.

so you want a complete statistical exploitation manual?

am i asking too much?
surely this is what a coach teach you, but by now i haven't the roll for a coach.
