The well, oldjude. - Page 5 - Micro Stakes Pot Limit and No Limit

How much of your learning consisted of game theory? Did you do much tsojojojojojo or MDMA style theory study or just rely on improving handreading while gaining an intuitive grasp on the logic that leads to the same conclusions?

If that's too hazy/vague/badly worded let me know.

I did almost none. I have always been more inclinded towards the psychological aspect of the game. I do find tjojo and mdma's posts intriguing.

q: how much different are midstakes limits like 6m 2/4 and 3/6 than 5/10 in terms of difficulty? are the good regs at 2/4 at all comparable to the good regs at 5/10? how do you think a longterm 2ptbb winner at midstakes would fare at 5/10+ given they arent playing scared money etc.

great read so far jude

Of course it has, when you switch from playing 25% of hands to playing more than twice that amount you really start questioning new things, start making high card calls and generally folding way less it forces you to think harder or get badly beat up.

Other 6max questions, what types of players give you the most problems,

I am not sure what my long-term results are against players like padirk, but i find him so annoying to play against because he just always has what hes repping.

what do your aggression numbers by street look like at 5-10,

not telling.

at what bb/100 winrate should a 5-10 player start to think about moving up
over a more than 100K sample i suppose 2BB he should start taking shots.

and what do you think a reasonable winrate is for a reg in those games? Thanks and congrats on your success.

These days i think to be beating 5/10 games on stars or ftp over a decent sample for 2BB or more is an accomplishment.

About €2k.

My dad used to train horses and the stable pet was a horse we owned called Herb Superb(dad attributed a lot of his success to his herbal concoctions).
Anyway herb was def my favourite horse, but hes dead now. When we got him he was a nut-job but for some reason never got pissed off with me.

Thanks buddy.

There is quite big difference between 2/4 regs and 5/10 regs. The better regs at 2/4 seem to be tight/solid/not too threatening. The regs at 5/10 are in general way better at not tilting, have way less fundamental leaks and seem to play a lot better in 3b pots.

I don't know, it depends on their style emotional control and tendencies.

I thought in general you were very solid but a little constricted and inflexible. I think when players start thinking that there's one way to do things thats when they stop learning.

How many cups of tea do you drink in an average session?
Do you think it gives you an edge over non consuming opponents?
Lyon's or Barry's?

3 or so. Maybe it gives me an edge, it doesn't dehydrate and apparently has antioxidants and flavanoids

Lyons for sure.

I didn't do the leaving, but i nearly did in order to get qualified as a carpenter. I hope that won't come back to haunt me.

My hourly, all time? not sure i'll look it up.

Good Well.

Green tea or normal tea?

Your opinion on the French/Italian license issues, and things related?

What do you personally do well that you think gives you an edge in the games, which is different from other winning regulars?

How do you analyize your sessions? Straight after play, the day after, or all at once in big blocks of 10,000+ hands, or a combination of the above? Describe.

Thanks

I don't remember what my reads on you were at the time but i suppose you may have seemed nitty an i might have thought a shove was too thin. I think without much history a check back is fine here.
