Hi Coach

Question 1: Post a hand for evaluation in which you have the initiative postflop.
:diamond: QJo
Question 2: Evaluate one of the hands submitted by other members.

:diamond: nl2 - KTs

Question 3: You are on the flop with KQ. The board cards are J, 9, 8, and your opponent holds 77. What is your equity in this spot?
:diamond: Our equity on flop is


Board: 8♥J♠9♣
       Equity     Win     Tie
UTG    41.40%  41.40%   0.00% { KsQd }
UTG+1  58.60%  58.60%   0.00% { 7h7c }

Hand #1
Why do you put a random range into the opponent there which is raising you? Most likely he wont do that. :( And did you calculate the KJ hand and you get 49% equity which is needed? It's actually not correct. Since according my calculations you should have 38,41% equity. If you want me to explain it then I can do it.

Hand #2
What do you want to do on the flop? Usually neither you can't put the opponent on just only 1 hand, neither on random hand. We have to put on specific range and what kind of actions do you want to do there? Also the equity calculation most likely ain't correct either.

Good job! Homework #4 Done!

This weeks homework was a bit easier. But the idea of that is to help you go through last weeks stuff if you didn't go through everything. Or either way maybe even read some more articles, watch some videos and of course attend in the coaching. What will also help for your game is the evaluation part of other members hands and of course posting your own hands.

If you have interests you could try calculating the equity with a formula which you can use even on tables(either playing online or live poker):
(Amount of outs x 4) – (Amount of outs – 8) = Your Equity

About Question #3:

Board: J♠9♣8♥
       Equity     Win     Tie
UTG    41.41%  41.41%   0.00% { KsQd }
UTG+1  58.59%  58.59%   0.00% { 7h7c }

Hopefully this wasn't too easy homework for you. Some more points earned.

As we can see already from the stats that you are Calling too much vs 3bets. You most likely gonna loose money from that kind of play. Really rather try to understand when to Call and if you expect the opponent to have worse holding.

Also you could be more aggressive and maybe CB a bit more on flop. Since it really seems that you are just CBetting with made hands. It can be exploitable if you get higher.

Also could be stealing a bit more from LP if the blinds are tight. :)

But overall it seems that you are doing great job and winning some money with your strategy. :)

Good that you enjoy the calculator. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask.

You have a huge leak in 3bet pots while you Call vs too many 3bets. It's most likely making you loose a lot money and therefore you really should watch out there. Try Calling less and try to understand why you calling not just "oh I have a hand, lets Call".

The VPIP/PFR ratio could be a bit higher but it's not a huge leak.

AF - you are a bit too passive and not taking stabs most likely on different kind of spots like if you are Cold Calling then most likely you don't play draws aggressively while you should. Since with just flatting you wont play the hand profitable.

CB on flop & CB the turn are way too small - it seems that you are just making CBs with only made hands. You should start CBetting a bit more and those boards which are good to CB like Axx/Kxx and etc.

Well, even if you don't read that much theory, try at least posting hands. ;) This helps you a lot as well to become more confident in your play and fix your leaks which will save you a lot money -> earn money.
