herooooooooow!!!!

It took a couple of days, but finally, another 1k day came todaY! Yaaaaay
+$1370 to be exact :f_biggrin:

Things happen when you work hard with someone who knows a thing or two!

Seriously though, I was struggling to beat nl25 since 2012..
I tried to get back into the saddle myself, but was never succesful..
It is really important to realize that everything is easier with help.

Learning how to think outside of the box is something that doenst come easily to anybody, one just needs to be told and shown countless times that there are certain ways how to confuse your opponent and let him make a mistake, which he wouldnt have done if you just played the hand the "standart" way.

I am not supposed to be posting hands as we agreed on it, but i hope it would be fine to show a little teaser on how just a slight extra outside of the box thing can push our opponent into making a mistake which they wouldnt make against regular reg.

UTG Vladimir.ch3 ($146.17) 146bb
UTG+1 ClickcliBo0M ($50) 50bb
CO Hero ($105.27) 105bb
BTN rnnosllv ($67.67) 68bb
SB wellsy089 ($107.75) 108bb
BB Muinmyheart ($197.13) 197bb

Pre-Flop: ($1.50, 6 players) Hero is CO Q♠ 9♣
2 folds, Hero raises to $2.41, 2 folds, Muinmyheart calls $1.41

Flop: 9♦ 2♣ Q♦ ($5.32, 2 players)
Muinmyheart checks, Hero bets $4, Muinmyheart calls $4

Turn: 9♠ ($13.32, 2 players)
Muinmyheart checks, Hero bets $8, Muinmyheart raises to $19.50, Hero calls $11.50

River: J♥ ($52.32, 2 players)
Muinmyheart bets $33, Hero goes all-in $79.36, Hero says "99", Muinmyheart calls $46.36

Final Pot: $211.04
Muinmyheart shows three of a kind, Nines
K♥ 9♥
Hero shows a full house, Nines full of Queens
Q♠ 9♣

Hero wins $208.24 (net +$102.97)

Muinmyheart lost $105.27

So, situation is, our opponent thinks on the river after our shove. Obviously he doesnt have 22 most of the time as he raises that on flop, he doesnt have busted draw as he snapfolds vs our shove, so his most likely hand is 9x, which he should, after using some of timebank, sadfold as I can easily have slowplayed boats and would never bluff here..

You can see very frequently poeple say their holding in chat truthfully when you are in a tank, cuz they think you wont belive them and will end up calling...Just by saying 99, he knows for a fact that we are lying as he holds a 9 in his hand, which superconfuses and makes him snappcall 2seconds after he reads the chat :f_p:
I believe he would have folded otherwise

Good night!

I started a thread about HM cloud but no-one replied, I'm the same as you couldn't be bothered to try it :f_biggrin: I think I might be in need of some of your coaching I'm not quite doing as well as you
