Also the sample of AA hands on the forum is completely unrealistic of reality. You wouldn't have posted it if he jammed qj or if the turn was an ace and he jammed etc.

3b pf might be a good idea too, depends on how tight the blinds are. if they wont fold then call, if they have a fold button i like 3betting. id like to maximize my chances of winning with just a pair.
Now that WV is in the compact, maybe you see Stars this year? WSOP and Party are dragging their feet. Hopefully PA will join and the operators will be more inclined to link these smaller states. CT is as big as Nevada and WV/RI are as big as Delaware. Would be like 6 million more people if all 3 get added
Looking to get interest for this again. Planning a new thread but wanted to bump this for visibility.
Hoping to get filled and be able to randomize 10 times (2 weeks per set of numbers) before the season starts.
I will start an interest list for a $20 board and a $100 board. I won't ask for any funds until we are at least 75% full. Payouts will be based on only the final score of the latest sunday game and will be $100 per week for the $20 board, and $500 per week for the $100 board.
I figure if we start an interest list now we can potentially fill 1 or both boards by the time the season starts.
Please wait for the new thread to submit interest!! Just wanted to get the info out there for now.
Replying to this thread rather than start a new one, as i just had the same thing happen.
My computer crashed while i was in the middle of playing and i was able to restore the database, but in my case I would like to delete 2 specific tournaments from my database, as they are corrupted.
I have narrowed down the tournaments ID, how could i delete them ?
Hello, unfortunately, there is no way to delete specific hands or tournaments from the database.
This feature is not implemented, since the violation of data integrity significantly reduces the performance of the database.
You can only create a new database in Configuration -> Database and import the necessary hands into it:
Discussions of safety in walking between Rio and the Strip are highly overblown. Your chances of being mugged or of a drunk driving hopping the curb are probably less than your odds of being hit by lightning.
You are using very messy bankroll management. Those stats are from all levels mixed and it's probably because there aren't enough tables in the poker room where you play, but it's no excuse. I don't know how hard NL50-100 will be in the room you play, nor what criteria you use to think it is a soft level (because there are very few hands and you don't know if it is a mini-up). Minimum to know if you are a winner at a level would have to be 50k-75k hands.
You have to play with 150-200buyin from a level and not move until you get to the next.
Short stack push is generally not nutted. It is bad to push with 88, but you will see that sort of thing. Overshove by reg should never be anything KQs is ahead of. Does he ever do this this with KJs or QJs??? There is no way to construct ranges for which this would be a call. You would be in for more against the reg, who is never light. It would be a more interesting post if you asked for a calling range. I would call JJ+/AK. but usually 3! those hands myself. You definitely could go a little lighter than that. No matter how loose their ranges are, it is ridiculous to consider calling with KQs. Very results-oriented post.
Hello Poker Community,
for my academic research at Reutlingen University, I'm exploring how game theory influences decision-making in poker. I warmly invite you to contribute by participating in a short, 5-minute experiment. Your participation will significantly contribute to academic research in game theory and poker. I look forward to your insights!

Just think of 3 betting the same as raising. Vs the typical loose passive fit or fold players, you cbet at a high frequency exploitatively, and mostly give up if they call.
When i first started 3 betting at 1/3, id go $50 or whatever, and then cbet $60 with air, and if they called me id think omg I set so much money on fire, but really its just the equivalent of a pfr + cbet but at higher stakes, once you start doing it often enough itll just sorta fade into the background of your typical variance haha.

I like how this thread was created by a micro stakes grinder that has also scammed people for stakes and people are actually responding with something other than ldo.
As an aside, why does new 2p2 allow scumbags to advertise coaching on here? Might as well hide all the underage girls and let convicted statutory rapist IamHiv back on here. It’s almost like the owners will let anything slide to boost traffic because they realized they made a mistake buying this site for the same price as endless fun time in east Asia, with all the ladies that can do the knees together squat position in bed.

If you disagree then I would like to know why, let’s say the button has none of this flop.
If I check, they may make a bet to represent an ace when they don’t have an ace and get me to fold the winning hand whereas if I bet and they don’t have anything they may fold.
I see betting as an action to deny the button from being able to rep an Ace without actually having one.
If you feel that is not a correct idea I would like to know why.
Flop: As10c5s
Ok, so we are betting KcKh on this flop ... so all KK. What about QQ/JJ ... all of them too?
What about Tx ... all of them too?
What about 99-66?
What about KQ/KJ/QJ?
What about J9/98/87/76?
What about A9 or even A4?
Also if you are sure BTN is often going to rep. an A when you check, why would you be betting AK?
Yeah, somehow I always forget that the profit of shoving comes from getting folds, not from getting calls. Good to know for the PKOs I play.
And yeah Darth, I agree, it changes the right way to shove which is sometimes just to open shove with a good hand rather than get tricky. I think that's what I was referring to more than shoving wide: shoving a lot with hands you'd normally just open.
I mean it's $7.50, do the big jam a few times and if they are always showing up with aces through queens, then stop doing it. But I think you'll find they'll show up with a lot of garbage.
well how often we're beat directly impacts the decision to bet and the size we choose. i don't think we're beat very often, and id imagine he xr the river something like 0-10% of the time yet op is acting like he is not only going to get checkraised 50+% of the time, but is unable to bet / call it off. i dont really understand how the idea that hes going to massively overbluff x/r the river (any asxo, any ksxo, any tsxo) would discourage u from betting. if anything you'd be absolutely printing by bet / calling. this guy check raising all in on 559 5 with 88 doesn't make him dangerous, it makes him one of the biggest spots you will ever play against lol
Yeah generally players overfold when they check twice OOP, and also overfold river.
The heuristic I shared is really more of a general heuristic. It's just a way of thinking about how your range interacts with the board. Generally when you have a lot of strong value hands and less air compared to your opponent you can bluff more.
Typically when the OOP player checks turn after you checked flop their range is pretty weak compared to yours, so you can bluff a lot. This is even more true in practice because a lot of players don't protect their checking ranges.
Just be a little more selective if the board is better for your opponent's range than yours.
Yeah, this hand is a really good example of how not to play 72 in a 72 game. It is clearly better to sometimes fold 72.
Were the games that soft that he was beating 100/200 NL?
game selected heavily almost exclusively at headsup at higher stakes iirc. also the lifetime graph pretty indicative of degenerate with self control issues as opposed to strong reg. probably small - medium winner in his lane (but unable to stay in it). i didn't play vs him so have no idea really beyond hearsay.
Players at low stakes very rarely flat out lie if they can be caught, e.g. by you calling them.
So when someone says they don't have a set believe them. They may be saying that for misdirection because they have a better hand, but they're very unlikely to have a set.
it's always a better hand or one that is indifferent
they don't have the flush, but they have top set which is the nuts if nobody has a flush and you'd have already called by now if you had a flush yourself so it is the nuts
but do otherwise agree that they are often truthful in a way
would lean to it being polarized, they either have the next best or better hand or absolutely nothing, nobody with top pair is talking about not having the flush
Too deep to gii. Keeping dominated draws in is good. Call and play turns.
All of the villains could have TT except co would probably ship.
Preflop EV is very small when compared to winrates (we learn this concept from solvers). Versus fish/very weak regs you need to play more postflop because they have huge leaks we want to exploit.
RFIing too much is the wrong approach because you are pushing small edges. You want to push big edges which incentivizes the players to play postflop.
So first off, your have a _lot_ of posts and it says verified coach next to your name. Also gobbledygeek is approaching god status and kind of plays this way.
Both of which make me want to at least listen to what you have to say, but...
There's no such thing as "right ranges." Even the concept of ranges is going to be misapplied since that only exists inside a GTO framework. We are playing against highly exploitable players, we don't care about our range.
This is not helpful and it leaves me guessing at what you might be trying to say ... or if you are just bad (maybe just at communicating, isildur was apparently terrible at it).
I'm going to assume you aren't limping 60% UTG, and you aren't secretly rolling a random number to decide if you should limp or not ... so you are starting with a range.
You might be saying you split ranges, and limp a HJ open range - UTG open range ... because you think everyone at 1-2 is terrible and won't notice. Or maybe even that you go full gobbledygeek and open limp only UTG but it's a lot closer to a normal HJ open range. But you didn't actually say either of those things.
