Can you send it to me too?
Pleen-dog (Pleno)
Can you outline how you go about your color coding fish again?
I watched your old zoom vid, and it seems you define any short stack as green (definite fish), how do you decide what is a possible fish and what is a definite fish?
Also, do you generally assume players with big stacks (>200bb) are regs/solid?

Me too
sorry but I thought I'd jump on the band wagon
@pleno1 or another1 who knows a good book:
I read 1 book in my life about poker.
What book about ABC, TAG, skills to beat the micro's do you reccommend.
I don't want to read about mindset because I have a mindset already to just play on with 40BI down and just playing on trying to get more skills without crying to my mother...
Just theoratical hand evaluation math book?

call 3bet IP w AA, c/r small AJTfd w set
Strategy. Firs I made general conclutions and then by those conclutios created strategy.
Spoiler
----STRATEGY TO USE------
dont cbet with weak hands and Ax - bluff catch him when he bets vs missed cbets. Or try to c/r - what happens when I have only A high.
-When he has some medium sd value - he does not bet vs missed cbetss so watch out! And then bet him for value w top pairs.
-raises cbets a lot - so he might call with medium pairs. WHen he calls a bet - try to 3barrel to fold med pairs.
-when there is fish in the blinds - 3bet his UTG opens.
-Barrel him light for value when he is BTN vs CO, proabalby same applies when he is BB vs SB.
-when weak draws are posible on turn in 3bet pot - can consider calling his cbet
-Respect bets on mono boards.
-watch out small bets by him.
-watch out small raises in 3bet pots - strong.
--------Conclutions by notes-----
potentialy weak
potentially weak, maybe calls 3bet too wide.
slow plays hands on drawy multiway boards. Small bet = strong
bets IP vs missed cbet and bluffcatches turn w A high
does not bluff mono board IP
opens wide in UTG when fish is blinds
cbet 1/2 w TP 2nd kicker on paired board in 3bet pot, bluffcatch later streets OOP
vs CO in BTN calls 3 small barrlees w underpair vs me
DOES NOT BET TURN VS MISSED FLOP CBET OOP WHEN HAS SD VAL
Bluffs turn w GS+overs in 3bet pot 3way when fish was AI on flop
bluffs often flops and turns
calls 3bets IP w monsters, small raise w monster
I hope will leave place for the fish after he see me at the table ♦
Edit:
there is another player for which I made summary:
NL20 SH A7s - is there value on river?

Conclutions and strategy
Spoiler
---Strategy to use---
-don't cbet value hands OOP, c/c instead, value from blufs. C/r for value strong hands sicne he is bluffcatching. Even do this in 3bet pots because he can have suited connectors. Especially c/r for val when he bets small.
-float on drawy boards oop, he can fold when we rep strong hand by donking
-don't try to bluff later once he calls in unraise pot
-4/bet call him w TT vs AQ+,TT+ range, even 125 bb deep
-don't put on strong range him when he does big cbet in small 3bet pot

Strategy
Spoiler
---STRATEGY TO USE------
3bet him a lot with suited connectors, pairs, blockers suited and ofsuit. If he calls OOP, he can give up sometimes.
When we have loose 3bet image, call his steals when we are IP, he gives up often OOP on flop or on turn after cbet.
DOn't bluff raise vs cbets - he is bluffcatching. Raise for value, even on dry boards to get calls from 2nd pairs.
4bet bluff him when he is in BB - he fold so far good and has 11% resteal. Watch if he starts to notice.
when he does not show agression in 3bet pot and I have TP, bet for value, he is pasive.
Barrel for value when weak draw like GS is posible
If 3bet pot board is Kxx And we have AK, bet bet bet - he can have KQ IP
-----Conclutions 2013 01 27-----
can give up easily low paired board OOP
can cbet and give up turn to float
can give up OOP in high card 3bet pots with initiative
can give up in low card 3bet pots with initiative

AAx board 3bet pot bets QQ 3handed OOP no cbet very small bet T +R
Went through my DB and filtered out 3bet Hands that went to showdown. He 3bets 6%, pretty much equally distributed over the different positions.
The range is: TT+,ATs+,AJo+
Game Plan:
Spoiler
Open ATC from BU if he's in BB and SB is tight as well.
Open ATC from SB if he's in BB.
3bet lots vs SB and BB, since he folds tons there.
My IP calling and 3bet (marked green) Ranges are the following; but I'm not very sure this is a good choice vs this type of villain:

4bet KK+, AKs for Value 56s-98s as bluff
AS PFR:
Can Cbet almost any Board vs him IP if he checks to us, since he has 76% Ftcbet in 3bet Pot OOP.
VS PFR:
Call AA OOP HU, since he barrels 3bet Pots like mad, so c/c flop c/s turn
Call SCs IP and raise Flop w/ equity
c/r for value on dry board, because Villain doesn't fold much to c/r, i.e. sets, two pair, combodraw i.e. top pair + draw
float him on any street and stab the pot, when he checks
AS PFR:
IP&OOP
cbet w/ equity + K/A high dry boards on Flop (high ftcbet)
cbet T only w/ Value, (very low ftcbet)
Hey Pleno,
A quick question for you:
When 6+-tabling, how do you manage to follow all the action and all the showdowns without missing anything while gathering reads?
I frequently find myself unable to follow everything because I usually miss at least the beginning of a hand (because of checking some stats for a spot on another table, thinking before making a decision @ another one, watching another hand etc.) and then I have to check the hand in the replayer, during which time I miss all the action @ other tables. And during this all I still have to tableselect, which is quite the pain given that during that time I basically have 0 vision of all the tables and it frequently takes at least some seconds to find a new table.
So basically it is an infinite, stressful loop of me trying to manage to see all the hands/showdowns + make notes of them + tableselect + still try and play poker at the same time.
And the longer I grind, the even slower the process becomes.
Should I just try and simplify my approach in any way, thus saving valuable time+energy? Do you have any magic tricks up your sleeve to deal with this?
I'm 6tabling on WPTpoker @ both regular and speed tables (no option to drop speed tables as the player pool already is mediocre)
Reducing tables = for weaklings.

Lol just lol. Can't cope with number of tables, but refuse to lower number of tables. Solid reasoning
Hey pleno ![]()
My question here for you!
I'm just trying to balance my range a bit and see in equilab which hands to defend from each position vs 3bets and which I can fold. Just getting my frequencies right u know. And this would be vs a good regular who also 3bets with good freq. Now my first range which I'm constructing is defendrange with our tight utg range (I mean a utg range which is on the tighter side because for example a maniac is behind us). I see we need to defend approx 47 combo's and it's easy because QQ+ and AK are 34 combo's. The thing is: QQ+ and AK = 4b/broke. So if we only call JJ and AQs (and TT), can't villain exploit or callingrange because it's so small? And also can exploit our 4b range because it's only value? So fold JJ and 4betbluff AQ? Or should we just defend more? I don't know ♦
Okay that's copied from or chat :P. Now let me explain what I mean with tight range:
134 combo's: 66+, ATs+, KJs+, QJs, JTs, AJo+, KQo
We need to defend approx 47 combo's and QQ+, AK = 34 combo's. We need to find 13 more combo's which is easy. We can call TT, JJ, AQs. Now we have 50 combo's. But our 4bet range still isn't balanced so we need to 4bet some hands, AJs, ATs, KQs, AJo.. But this makes or defendrange rly wide already. Is this a problem lol?
The problem is that villain has such an easy time playing that callingrange. So how to fix this?
- Only 4bet and never call a 3bet.
- Call more hands like TJs
I don't know what is best tbh and I don't think I can play hands like TJs OOP so maybe only 4bet or fold? Well, than it sucks to have JJ ![]()
PLEASE HELP ![]()
Now part 2: Our looser UTG range (198combo's) - 22+, A9s+, KTs+, QTs+, JTs, T9s, ATo+, KJo+.
Defend approx 70 combo's.
Actually pretty much the same problem again. I would like to hear what you prefer to 4bet/fold and just flat with.
flat AQs, JJ, TT and 4bet AQo, AJs, ATs, QKs would already give us the amount of combo's we need but again the problem is our face-up callingrange.
Is there a way to fix this?
EDIT: Another question. Let's say you open QJs en TJs on the CO and BTN is a good aggro reg (let's take lnternet ♦). Do you almost always just flat these hands? Or even fold?
