Message: [QUOTE="eetenor, post: 6264014, member: 385063"] Thank you for posting The number 1 goal in NL is to stack our Villains. We seldom do that preflop at 100bb stacks The number 1 mistake your V make is calling too often post flop. At your limits we want to play a much wider range preflop because we have a post flop skill advantage but we do not want to build big pots preflop with a wide range when we can do it on flop and turn and even river. 3 betting or folding preflop is to realize equity on our strong hands and avoid reverse implied odds because we think our V will play correctly post flop. If they are that good leave the table. Why risk your stack on a 55-45 when you can get stacks in 100-0. At the lower limits we focus on ROI not raw equity realization. The key here is to know the proper ranges for our actions you state AQ, AJ & KQ are tempting to cold call when we can't justify a 3 bet All of those hands vs 5nl players are a 3 bet fold to 4 bets. Why? Reverse implied odds-better to raise to 7bb and fold it than to call hit a pair and put 30bb+ into the pot and lose to hands that dominate us from raiser or to call and let 2 more players over call and reduce our equity. If you are just going to call then you use the suited AX as calls as we can then flush over flush in a multiway pot. Again think about getting stacks not winning pots. Our calls need to be hands that can make the nuts and get paid but not tempt us to stack off badly. 76off can make straights but will not temp us to chase if we make a pair of 7's etc. You are right you want to add in many more calling hands but first you want to study the proper ranges. Hope this helps :):) [/QUOTE]
