OWN ANALYSIS

In hand 1, I know CO is LAG player, VPIP around 35 and PFR around 25, and also trying to steal a lot. Maybe I should have pushed, for getting max FE, but I didn't felt comfortable holding just KJo.

In hand 2, BU is very tight, VPIP around 5. I got nice hand, but I think he could have had better, so I folded according to strategy. Next time I was in the BB, he also stealed (just coincidence?).

When you want to stealraise you have to have sufficient stats on opp.Important for
resteal is ATS(attempt to steal).There is article with resteal chart in silver section:

Hand 1 I think is ok-I would resteal with AJ+,99+.Resteal range from SB should be
tighter than from BB.
Hand 2 is OK(?),you need good stats on this opp.Tight opp,low ATS so resteal range is tighter-AQ+,TT+.
:)


Ok, thanks a lot. So I assume than when playing against loose players, who like to steal from late position (high ATS), I can stealraise and get +EV.

If I'm playing against tight player, or player with a low ATS, I think I'll better fold, because it will often reduce to a coinflip, and I'm currently running somewhat low on BR, so I want to have the fewest variance possible.

I think the first KJ Hand you could fold.

With AQ i always resteal.


Ok, and how much should I raise for stealraising?

If I raise the standard 3 times, I'd have to raise to 1.20, if I get called, pot will be at least 2.40, and my remaining stack about 0.80, so always all-in in the flop. I think it's better to push preflop here?

1) 25 PFR means that he is stealing at least 30% from CO
In this case, given the effective stack and his raise size, it is mathematically correct to resteal with KJo, if his calling range is 17% or lower. 17%+ is a fold with KJo.
-> I would push

2) I guess his PFR is 5?
In this case we can resteal, if his calling range is lower then top 5 (99+ AQ+), which might be the case for a tight guy)
