Suitedness is definitely a factor in more spots than described at the fringes of your range, but yeah, "I haz sooted" is way too liberally used as an excuse to play.

Why look to literature that isn't directed at your game though? There are a plethora of NLHE books out there that will apply without needing to add translation to your labors.

Though, actually if the games are still as limpy passive preflop and super cally passive postflop as they were when I was working through 2 and 5nl, I played preflop just like I did at live fishy pokerboom LHE. Like 25/3, and 25BB/100 and 15BB/100 respectively isn't a bad result IMO.

1) Sit deep with other deep fools
2) Aggressively barrel in, even overbet shoving river with nuts
3) Learn how to play poker more for realer when you hit 25nl

Of course it could be my perception but most of the 5nl games I am in are anything but 'limpy-passive'. I see plenty of 3betting and some squeezing. Maybe @ 2nl you can limp UTG with 44 or 76s bt @ 5nl you'll likely get squeezed.

I think the thing I want to focus on is; when you are OOP and cannot control the size of the pot and don't have alot of fold equity can you profitably draw to Flushes/ Straights?

IMO, under these conditions (OOP, no FE) the answer is: No.

Guys, I should warn that April's chat thread will be serious business but for now, lets enjoy the spam

Elements of Poker is mainly a live, limit focused book. You should read it despite that fact because it's not really about how to play poker at all. It's about how to think about how to play poker. Great read.

Have you explored his Eightfold Path series online?

 

[WVHillbilly]

Yes. I have watched them all. Problem is that I find them too relaxing and often go to sleep listening to them.

Any of you guys ever do a marathon or half marathon? I think I'm doing one this summer and was wondering if anyone had some good training tips?

 

[JOEBOB69]

Run really far really fast over and over,drink lots of water,eat right etc.
Why people run marathons is beyond me.

I did a half marathon once when I was in the army, I got round in about 2hrs if I remember right, my training....going out on the lash from 12noon the previous day, get in at 9am and do half marathon at 9.30 still drunk wearing converse and a t-shirt with uncovered stitching over your nipple. Sobered up right near the end of the race with an almost completely worn away nipple, severe dehydration and a pair of red socks which, 2hrs previous, were white!

Amazingly I still beat about 1/4 of the pack and was no-where near the back lol

 

[LuckyChippy]

Lol tables are so good it's redic, I can't quit. +8 buyin day so far.

PC cause you were so good to me I want to send you $20 back, about 3 more lol buyins and I will

Because it's a challenge...physically but maybe even more so mentally.

I think I'll probably just do the half this summer and then try for the full another time if it goes ok. I mean I'm in pretty good shape and run frequently already (4-6 miles at a time usually) but was just looking for some tips on what kind on training works best to get best possible time. I'm hoping sub 2 hr time which equates to slightly over 9 minute miles which I think is easily attainable.

March chat thread probably not best place to poast to get good advice about marathon as it is infested with lazy spammers.....

I'm thinking I'll probably do some really long aerobic runs a few times a week, and then mix in some shorter anaerobic work on days where I'm lifting weights at the gym. Some interval training or something maybe...
