yeh need to tighten up EP.. not sure about the 3et though, i already fold exploitably much, are you advicing i rather be exploitable than unprofitable? Or should i just lower my opening ranges, so i can be both unexploitable and profitable?
yeah my cbet is a bit "weak", but it also means i check back a lot when i think they will instafold ~100% of the time, and bluff cbet quite a lot instead
its adviced to be cbettin a lot, like 70-75%.. but i am not sure if its proven to be better than say bluff cbetting 40% and checking behind made hands for value on turn and possibly river too, obviously always betting out boards where i can cooler worse kickers
against regulars they very rarely call flop OOP without a very solid plan/sick draws, so if i cbet i only get 3bb from my pots instead of ~7 ish if i slowroll a bit
i need to improve my "initiative cbetting" for sure though.. i just have a hard time playing when i open KQs or something from EP.. i am OOP and flop comes J82 or something.. almost same with AK/AQ in that spot too.. although ace helps a lot
so pretty much my problem spots are the average broadway hands on semi-connected boards like that J8s.. 762.. 973.. any ideas for how to handle these OOP? .. feel so stupid for cbetting that against regularish players, and also its very bad to just checkfold a lot.. because i assume they have a lot of pairs and Ax hands.. suited connectors.. all hands that have similar or better equity on the flop
