I don't really get this reasoning. If you check turn, you should definitely be check/calling as he will have a lot of draws in his range. Betting turn is definitely fine too.

Well even if i see this hand, this'll mean he would also call 67/78/9t/Tj etc, but that are just a few sc's and thus fd's i have to be scared of. And some big Axcc, with AJcc being the only viable one. so thats about 5-8fd's among alot of pp's i gave him during the hand.

And vs a range mostly pp's, i don't see a clear vbet on the turn, as most pp's would fold i think and the Qx in his range, are only stronger.
I would ch/c turn, river would be quite close, as he thinks a pair of 5's has sdvalue, meaning all pp's inbetween would check aswell. Making his bluffrange quite narrow imo.

tbf you are giving a pretty good price to call you IP with a lot of dead money in the pot.

I know, but the IR had a fold vs 3bet of 70%, so i thought he would play quite straightforward and i didn't give MP alot of credit for a good hand here. Postflop i almost always cbet 1/2 pottish.

@boom,

yea this last session was also 6tables, so no cutting down. Played a bit of zoom the day before, think that has helped too, cuz i made 7k hands. Didn't get in any real crazy spots, if i would i said to myself i would quit the session.

Really question myself why i still bother playing, it's like i have a dozen black cats next to me walking underneath ladders through broken mirrors.

20BI under EV last 30k hands now, without the freaking annoying setups even showing vs droolers 200bb deep. _confused: _confused: _confused: _confused:

you're running hotter than the sun, so u don't have any rights saying that. :coolface:

Running this shit for a few sessions is 'normal', but more than a month is just a pain the arse and i'm not a homosexual person, so i don't really like it. If anyone wants to take over, be my guest, i won't stop you.

I just noticed that you play @888, what's your sn? if you play nl50-100 then I'm 100% sure we met at the tables.

I remember you very well, you just keep calling me so light, wtf that's about man ? I never tried to bluff you a single time. I remember you hero called me with AQ high or sthing in the most absurd spot ever (I won I think), I thought this guy must have some hands on me from someone else for sure

yeah most regs at nl100 are average/below average, some tough aggro regs though, I actually believe that nl50 regs are better somehow on 888.

Yea it's that your stats on the small sample was outrageous aggro a few weeks ago when i started on 888, so i just had to call down light a few spots. Can't remember the AQ or so tho :P. Do remember some other hand where you made some random raise with toppair tens, no kicker, and bet bet, and i called down with 2nd or so. Just didn't make sense at all to me :P.

But that was a small problem i had on some other regs aswell, but after some sample, they are so easily readable.

hmm I just went through my db, I can't find the hand you talk about, I would've probably remember it, I don't think it was against me.

oh that was prolly the hand, yea it's spew from my side. But most regs would just call there with Jx, so it didn't make alot of sense to me at the time.

Did some recovering from the massive badrun i had the whole month, finally had some hotrun on my side. Had a few QQ>KK vs aggro regs, where the money would go in anyway, even when hands were reversed so yea, got a bit lucky there.
And got the Highest monthly status, on the last day, so that's some more RB next month. :)

Last week:

Didn't do anything really fancy this time, worked alot vs my tiltness.

Sickest losing redline ever imo.

HELLO THERE.

Didn't play alot last few days, due to being drunk, hungover or busy. Started up some MTT's for fun earlier this evening. It's insane how LOLBAD everyone is there, ofc they know how to push/fold. But the postflop game is so bad of almost everyone.

And played some tables cash when most of my mtt's were done. Won 1,5BI, happy with it. But still had to drop 2BI $wise, but win EV-wise. Always below ev, fuck me. But i was getting rather tired in the end, so i should blame myself.

Anyway, looking forward to the new Breaking bad episodes starting this week.

Haven't played alot last few days, not in the mood or superbored while playing.

Played a nice session tho this afternoon on zoom, nl25, cuz my roll on stars is supersmall lol. won 6BI and had some other music on and i think that made me superfocussed.

So i did something completely different and picked up a pencil.
