need some tips/thoughts on first time FLO8 session
I played 30 hrs in two day span at orleans in LV, if you were at teh 4-8 tables you prolly know who I am
I ended up being down 300$ or close to it. I only played like 3% of my hands and made 3 bad rookie decisions were I wasnt disciplined at all and lost prolly 60-75$ in those 3 hands.
other then that i have no ****ing clue where I went wrong, I felt being tight at the tables at these loose passive would give me small winrate but it didnt happen, I got blinded off and in several hours even after winning a pot I would be down 40-60% of my BI just from me folding.
everyone at table thought i played too tight but they were playing A LOT of hands and seeing flops cheaply with muiddle connectors and whatnot, i tried to loosen up with hands such as A5o if it was just for teh BB n the dealer or CO but I am jus tpuzzled at how I was such a big loser for having played super tight. and no it cant be variance
any thoughts? I only played hands with A2, A3 or A45 if it was suited or LP only for a BB call, as well as other hands free from BB
did I just play too tight, i thought tightest player at table had a chance to be a small winner??
I have no idea what amok feels was confusing about that sentence or how he thought it could have implied that deuceblocker didn't know what "open" meant in context.
"It is not at all clear that a GTO open from LJ is playable in a 4/8 game. "
translation to clarify -
"It is not at all clear that [X] is playable in a 4/8 game [, where there will almost always be limpers before the action gets to you, just because it is a good hand to open raise with in a tighter game].
Yeah, that troll was really running amok. I specifically used the word "open" to mean how you would play in a tough game as opposed to a multiway pot in a low stakes game. I don't see how this is idiotic. I am pretty precise with terminology, and anyway it is only terminology.
I agree that we need to take into account the possibility that someone is trolling.
Isn't it blatantly obvious that a situation is completely different if there are limpers to you in LJ or if the pot is unopened? How do those limpers lead to a conclusion that "It is not at all clear a GTO open from LJ is playable in a 4/8 game" (a very precise wording by deuceblocker according to him) when IT IS NOT THE SAME SPOT EVEN IN THAT CASE and a solver will not raise the same hands in these two different scenarios.
So was this just your clumsy way of saying that the pot will rarely be unopened, so knowing a solver open range will not be so useful? I mean you could have just said that, but you implied that what solver does is not "playable". It is playable, it's a very good place to start from, but the spot might occur more rarely than in a game where people play better.
