Two days ago, I would have told you to never 3bet in 5/10. But I was running like crap and was down 2 b/i's.

But today, it was the opposite. I was 3 betting with good hands and I'm up 3.5 b/i's. But I really didn't start it until late in the session because I'm not rolled for 5/10 atm. But once I started doing it, it seemed dumb not to. Most of the time my hands were good and the pots were better when they were. When they weren't good, I didn't lose that much.
 
Thouse of you that have trackers,what is your 3bet%?
Im at 4,73 at 6max witch i find a litle on the tight side tbh and 3,77 at FR.


p.s
After looking over some graphs,stats ect if decited to move completly to 6max,i was 6tabling a mix of FR and 6max but aperantly i suck at FR and run like god a 6max 🙂.
 
I would love to tell you mine, but I'm not at home and my sample size is probably only in the 3K range.

P.S. Jurn, are you wanting me to do the "squeezing" topic?

A post about 10NL and what I found also abit about 25NL take a look but bear in mind that this is my first ever sort of strategy I have ever written so go easy on me if you think its rubbish.

Great post!

You talk about the short stacks in your blog - they're driving me nuts. I see even multi-tabling regs playing $2 BI's. If there are more than two who sit down at the table, do you just go find another table?

2 or 3, yeah I would find another table.

There is nothing like raising AA, being reraisd.. pushing all in .... being called and winning at showdown... all to get about $1.50 for your troubles because the table was full of shortstacks!!

Yeah you dont want anymore than 3 at the table. Also you want them on your right hand side and ideally not in the three seats to your left as these will be the positions you steal off the most.
 
I posted this in Feb. Fever, but I'm pretty stoked about this. Between this thread, C9, and ChuckT my game has really stepped up. I made almost 7.5 buyins today just before midnight! Take a close look at this graph, because you might never see it this good from me again!😀😀😀

My new job sucks 😡. For thouse of you that dont know I just went back to full time work after 2 months off. No time for poker at all. I've been able to put in a little under 5 hours in the past 6 days. Working 10:00-19:00 in a friggin call centre (and I hate call centres). Trying to fine a new job that pays a little more and hours are 8:00-16:00, should get much better balance that way.

The only good thing is when I have played I've been sharper than I've ever been casue I know I haven't got much time so I must get the most out of it whilst have the chance.

My stats for feb so far are:
1335 hands
17.61 BB/100

Good luck to everyone and rather than wishing me good luck on the tables, please wish me good luck to get a better job. Anyone whose worked in a call centre will know what I'm talking about and why I'm venting so much 😉

Aww man that sucks about your job, why dont you quit and play pokahz 17BB/100 is sustainable IMO 😀😀😀

hope all goes well on the job front mate !

PS. replied to your blog comment, thanks
 
Just come up against a type of player that was literally infuriating lol, he was a total fish, stats were at 84/5/1 which is normally somebody that i'm learning about and i'm starting to be able to deal with, just raise it up in pos to isolate them and then cbet their candyass...... only problem is this guy will not give up on the flop.... or turn..... or river, of course i had a host of broadway cards dealt to me that werent hitting the flop, i'd raise it up, he'd call and the board would come all bricks, there was no point cbetting him, his fold to cbet was 22%, like 2 out of 9 times... the textbook answer is probably to wait til you get a hand and then keep firing bullets.

He was in like every hand i raised so if i didnt hit the flop i couldn't cbet even if the 1 or 2 other callers had high fcbet% because you could bet your life he would call grrrrr!!!!
 
ok if you know hes going to call, tighten up and then when you get a hand make it more to go like 6/7BB. On the other hand if you hit, just value town him and bet every street so you know he will call. I know it maybe frustrating but he is a walking ATM IMO.
 
just looked into sattys for FPPs and the 210FPP satty to the 200k looks ok 6/20 get in! anybody played these before?
 
thanks for that jurn, i'll remember that next time someones playing like that. How much is the 200k to enter?? ive read a few blogs where people have been using their fpp's to enter these exact sattys, apparently they are good value but i'm aiming for the caymenn lol only another 2,999,080 to go!! haha i'm wondering if these sattelites are a better option 🙂

Yes.
The best thing to spend ur FPPs on at our limits.

Check out ice's video playing one of them in the video section.
Pretty straightforward.

Fold equity is a subject that might as well be Chinese arithmetic. I really don't understand it at all. I can't wait until whoever has that subject puts it in here. But I will go study up on this on my own. Any pointers would also be great.😀

Working on a post for this now. Should be up by end of the weekend i hope, depends on how much time i get between work and classwork.
 
Well I was in 4th and on the FT with still 10 remaining then had to go to the train station to come home !!! so not sure if I made it

EDIT : SWEEETT !! I Made it !! I think I am going to take a shot at it!
 
Well i watched ice monkeys video on the 210fpp sat's, fired one up, got dealt pocket tens in like mp, push, called by QQ and KJ = me out 🙁 3 more shots left lol, i had 920fpps and didnt even know so i'm going to spend them on this from now on i think
 
Haha man my 210fpp video is still getting love. I'm glad I made it kinda funny. Those 210's are a crapshoot, with that method I got to 50% ITM over about 80 or so games. The 5400 are way too "much on the line" for me to handle so I am just saving for a big bonus.
 
Haha, that was such a fun way to make $20 😀 out of 4 i played i placed in 2 of them, i'm gonna be counting down the fpp's until 210, that video was really funny as well, it kinda depended on icemonkeys commentary b/c other wise it would have been 30mins of folding and 2 or 3 pushes lol i especially like the bit where the guy with a 5.5k stack pushes with A7 and the "this guy says he's gonna be the hero" hitting his 8 on the river, pure comedy, thanks for a really fun and easy way to build the bankroll a bit quicker 😀
