[QUOTE="sryulaw, post: 4442647, member: 250073"] [b]Your poker profit comes solely from the fact that you face opponents below your own. I've tired of hearing people commenting that "I prefer to play against better players, where my bluffs go" or "I can read better players who know how to play than fishes, who play with anything" and other things, but this is a mistake GIANT. Money is not a tree, right? So if you play against players as good as you or better than you, where do you expect your profit to go? You can win one time or another, but in the long run you will either tie or lose. Whereas tournaments charge rake (8 to 15%), if you face players of the same level as you, just by rake you will already be a pretty loser player. So you need to decide where the weaker opponents are you - the weaker the better! - and only play that field. Until you get better and better. When you have the illusion (yes, it's pure illusion) that your game "fits better" against the good players, you do not actually realize that your bluff has passed, yes, but in the same way that hand you hit flop and did not draw anything, if it was against a weaker player you might extract a lot more. On the average, overall, you'll earn less (or nothing) against better players. And if you stop to think, you will see that this is elementary. The truth is that you must adjust your game against bad players to the point of exploiting them in the best possible way. Does not your opponent bow to your bluffs? So this is a game where you do not have to bluff. You will profit against it by playing for value (who said that playing well is playing beautiful? The simple is sometimes the most correct). Likewise when he plays with "bizarre hands". You do not have to hunt bluffs of it, nor try to re-bluff, anything like that. If he has any imbalance in the frequencies, if he plays with a crazy range, HE will miss so much that the chips will fall on your lap. Bad players make bad plays and will make more mistakes than good players. Bad players will be your source of profitability, they are the ones who will pay a hand that they should not pay, they will play their hands more obviously, they will open the way for you in a tournament to accumulate chips. Good players will never give you this softness. Let's see below the main guidelines for you to find the right road to profitable gambling. The funny thing is to see in the tournaments players criticizing played because he called horrible and hit something in the end, even here in the Club, has a player who criticizes the partner for giving a Call, or All in with horrible hands, the right and thank, and that If we do not change this thinking it will be a big problem in poker in the future, we need bad players, recreational players, players that play with anything, they come from the profits, think about it,[/b] [/QUOTE]
