nl2 is my home

1) complete is fine, you don't want to play oop with 9 high and no fold equity
just bet pot on the flop

2) nice bet sir

I'd say that that was the best bluff ever. Maybe he was representing 5-of-a-kind ♦?

Nice hand!

My nl5 plan didn't go as I wanted to. I needed like 1bi on weekend to make a shot, but the only hands I was playing against were Aces, quads and draws which obviously completed on the river by drawing with pot size bets

After one of these great hands, I spilled my tea over the desk and I need a new keyboard now. Gonna buy one tommorow, cause writing on screen keyboard is too damn hard.

Time to updateeeeeeeeee (new keyboard). So, I lost already like 4 BI on nl5, dunno if I'm so dumb, or they are just idiots, but here are some hands, let me know if anything is wrong

Ok, so if I can count correct... 2 coolers and 2 presents, learn to play Friedric.

u must play TAG, something like BSS?

I have different experiences. I have JTo flop Q9xr and two guys shove to each other. I am fish so I call. They show each other aces, turn 8 and I'm smiling.

Did you have thoughts about starting to play something more laggy? TAG if played bad makes you spewy when u get married to ur hand. Which am not sure if you can read here on forums.

KQs was pretty sick but u priced in definitely JJ to have a peak and therefore set mine on ya. I would perhaps jam AA pre..

Good luck at the tables mate! ♠_cool:

On your pocket pairs example, I am just wondering why you chose to go against the starting hand chart and raise from early position? What would you have done if you hadn't hit the flop? And is their any particular reason you're raising 4 big blinds instead of the suggested 3?

Hello guys!

It's the time for an october/november update!

I have played 66k hands over this 30days period, so it's a pretty decent sample.

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

I'm really happy about my game in this month, I have still many leaks, but gonna eliminate them soon

I'm already playing nl5 zoom and I feel really confident there. This limit is so much different from nl2, because it's not so fishy, but nitty as hell. I have started coloring every nit, so I'm stealing their blinds with 100% range as it's most likely profitable. Everything I need is to avoid going into tough spots with them, profit will come along with it, only volume is needed this way.

@mattisks Thanks for a reply. I'm not made for a lag style, or not yet. I'm still doing many post flop mistakes, it wouldn't be a profitable for me at all

@Sashalyuber I have played more than 500k hands already on zoom, so I have pretty decent informations about players ♦ Raising pockets from utg depends mostly on the opponents I have on the table. If there is not so much aggression after me, then I go for it. I can cbet many boards even if I didn't hit a set, because of "fit or fold" zoom strategy. 4bb raise is a matter of my playing style, I'm playing tight, so I want to win more with my hands. For example from BU/CO I'm opening only 3bb, cause my range is way wider

And now we go for a hands part:

That hand is imo interesting, utg is a retard and mp is a LAG. I was pretty sure that both of them has some PP, so ship it and pray for TT-JJ ♦

Comments on that hand are welcome

Guess you slighlty overplayed that hand, even if UTG is retard and MP is lag that just looks so dangerous

If both of them were retards I'd gladly go broke, though.

Over 500 000 hands of data? My god, that is extremely awesome! Fredric, you wouldn't happen to play on pokerstars would you ?

Volume is pretty good, but results are really, really bad... I'm playing on P*, I just can't get used to other softs, I'm getting sick of looking at them
