Message: [QUOTE="Figaroo2, post: 3918289, member: 103914"] Yeah so your red line is a bit high and showdown too low, this indicates you are being a touch too aggro probably 3betting a fair amount and at least double barrelling most hands. You can get away with this in zoom as the player pool won't know what you are doing for quite a while. The problem with doing this is that you will fold out most of your opponents mediocre holdings by the end of the turn. Once you get to the river all they have left is the top of their ranges. This is why bluffing on the end doesn't work very often as to get to the river against heavy betting they have to be strong. Now once the Borg start to catch on you are just an aggro they will adapt, you will find they will 4bet you more, check raise your cbet more and call you down lighter. These are natural adjustments to make against looser players with high cbet rates. A couple of years ago VinylSpiros and I did an experiment in 5nl zoom where for an hour we 3bet every playable hand and then full potted both flop and turn. The win rate was silly and our chart had a massive redline and a low blue line and looked similar to yours. It makes you realise how easy it is to fold people out with aggression but that it won't work forever. So you need to start checking some more flops and turns with your 2nd pair type hands. Hands with some showdown value but with little chance of improving. But you know in zoom if you take your foot off their throat they are going to bet into you if you check so you need to call at least once sometimes with 2nd best hands. Its all about finding the balance and targetting your barrelling at looser players and less against the tighter ones. You can barrel nits as they often won't gii without the nuts so I suggest you have a look at their WTSD% early in the hand and don't barrel the tighter players who's WTSD% is over 30 [/QUOTE]
