Some coachings have been migrated over to twitch.tv from the coaching player @ http://www.twitch.tv/pokerstrategyen

As far as I know this weeks coaching with pokertracker wasn't recorded?

I've been having a hard time lately when facing very loose, very aggressive players, especially in the two places to my left.

Other than move tables, is there anything that can be done about these guys?

stats like 70/40/15/12 v/p/3/af
Over about one fiddy hands

Thanks,
--VS

Hey pleno, I want to AYA about 6max now.

A bit background: I returned to poker in may last year, and only played FL. I will keep on playing FL, since I love the game, but I liked the idea of learning a bit of NLHE both as a transition to PLO8 and MTT.

So, my first question is: is NLHE in between FL and PLO8 enough to use it as a step in that ladder?

And my second question,l and more important: I want to start with NL, but i don't want to play FR. Do you think that it's necessary to go through FR first and then go to 6max? If not, how should I start my path down 6max?

I have came accross this topic few days ago and I'm really grateful that there is somebody like Pleno who put some effort to answer any questions related to 6max cash game. Really good job Pleno !

I want to ask you about some of the stats you recommend to have in Hud

EP PFR
MP PFR
CO PFR
BTN PFR
SB PFR

is "PFR" the % of time the Villain open from certain positions or the % of hands he open from that positions ? Isn't better to have "Raise1st" in our Hud instead of "[position] PFR" ?

What are the correct/incorrect number for that stats and how we can exploit that during game ?

Thanks for the reply, got me thinking, Ill come up with some more questions for shure. oh wait I already have one :

Whats your perspective on opening alot of hands sb vs bb, when bb has a fold vs steal 60+, my open sizing (when im midstacked) on nl50 is 1.13 1/2 pot button, so we invest 0.88c blinds to win 0.75c [ 88/(75+88)=54 ] so mathematically its profitable, but we do get to see the flop with garbage hands and waste time on that, while we could have played more tables, the other question is the stat itself fold bb vs steak from sb, it has to be accurate so a good sample is requared and plus the opponent could adjust and start widening hes calling and 3beting ranges, although I dont think many people do at nl50 at cake poker, still. The other side of it all that we get to play alot of diffrent hands and somewhat imrove out postflop skill.

I wrote all of this down and kinda have a feeling I answered my own question, that this isnt such a good spot to be making enough to actually do it. Anyways whats your thoughts ?

What do you think about incorporating min5bet bluffing in spots where villain probably has wide 4bet range. Stat wise how much is wide?

IMHO if it is profitable, you should just do it. You do know you make profit even if you ch/f everytime when he calls, and thats not the actual case and you do hit some flops.
