From when I sweated you dg, I think you do need to raise more from late position. I mean I'm no 6max expert, in fact I barely know what I'm talking about so I suggest you ask someone who actually plays 6max to watch your game. But I think your gap between vpip and pfr is too big for 6max.

A little bit more aggression is not bad either from what I saw. I mean ask yourself this when you see a hand you want to limp. Is it good enough for a raise. If it isn't, then why play it at all ?

I have been trying to ask myself that here recently, and I feel like I'm not limping as much. But I looked over my stats for just the last two weeks and I'm still doing it. I need to make a big flyer and post it by my monitor or something. But thanks for the comments, ent.
 
dg you should read the 6 max guide that was in c9 post of various articles/posts etc. It's got some great general guidelines on raise/3-betting worthy hands in relation to position/opponent

I have actually cruised through that one. It is really good. I just need to get a chance to actually sit down and read it thoroughly.
 
Would appreciate some feedback on this. I think it might be a good discussion starter.

And if anyone want's to throw in some more scenario's go ahead.
 
I'm sorry, C9...Did you say something?😛

I've got a video I should get to download (after about a month; once it gets done rendering). I stopped open limping and raised hands that I felt were playable hands. The outcome wasn't good, but I will be asking for some feedback on it.

Sorry dg, but my friend enty has this one locked😛

Not if I can help it. I'm gonna take an early shot at this one. First day of March, down about 4 1/2 BIs. Running into all sorts of shit tonight. Can't hit a flop to save my life, everything I do have is worse than whatever anyone else has.

**** March, **** hitting 10nl in the next couple of weeks. **** my life

Well seeing as I'm down 400 ish on the month, yes I can.

I just can't show you, and I'm glad, since my pc broke down as well this month. And fking still hasn't been fixed.
 
Okay, you win! But between tourney wins and ring losses I'm down almost $250 this month. That just makes me sick. If I would have stayed away from ring, I might've been up in the $600 range.
 
What does a donk bet at 25NL mean? I added this stat to my HUD, and I'm seeing players with 75%+ donk bets (a few at 100%) with 100+ hands - with these players, is a donk bet a mix of bluffs and real hands? Do I need to relate the donk bet statistic to something else to make sense of it?
 
I always heard a donkbet is when you make a bet on the flop when you were not the original raiser.

Say player A raises preflop, player B calls out of position. On the flop, player B is first to act and bets. This is a donkbet because player A was the original raiser.

He means is it a bluff, a strong hand or draw, he wants to know how to take the bet. And to answer that I'm going to have to say it depends. Depends on your table image, on the other player, the stacks and stuff like that.

i dont think he meant what is it i think he meant what are players doing it with

like are players more likely to donk bet with bluffs, mid pairs on a board with one overcard, or do they have a monster

Edit: Bob Tiger beat me to it

I'm having a problem putting an image in my posts (didn't have that problem before today), sorry that I'm going to write this out rather than putting in screen shots...

In February, my AF is too low for both FR and 6max, both around 1.8. WTSD for both FR and 6max is around 29 - Won $ at SD for 6max is 54.49 over 8.3K hands, and in FR it's around 47 over 13.5K hands.

Obviously I'm calling too much postflop. How do I look at my database to figure out when I shouldn't be calling, but am calling?

Example - I suspect I'm calling too often when I raise preflop and someone donk bets into me, or raises my flop bet. This happens when I have a big A and miss the flop. Not sure how to use PT to evaluate this scenario.

Also not sure what other scenarios I'm calling in when I should be raising or folding - thoughts are appreciated. Thanks
