It's probably not easy to "crush" pre-rakeback on GG in micros & lowstakes, but it's definitely soft enough to move up stakes and have a decent winrate post-rakeback playing reasonably well. Not saying you personally can't beat it, you probably don't have a big sample yet either to say for sure. But what you will have to do is change your mindset to really capitalize on your determination. I wish I had that kind of drive to eventually make it, but I probably just don't have it. I'm just a small winner on 10-50z on pokerstars on a ~350k hand sample, and I'm very well aware that I could do better only if I'd know how to play better versus fish and nits and other profiles where a GTO strategy just doesn't apply. It's harder than one might think, and it's not the easiest to just figure out on your own without studying correctly. If you think the pool or the site is the problem, switch to something that you feel you're good enough to beat. No point in playing somewhere you feel you are a loser if you don't want to put in the hours to get an edge over the pool/site.

I was thinking the same like i needed specific kind of approach to play better vs fish but after i started playing zoom i realized that it's useless to learn how to play vs fish, most important part is to find your game and have a fish on the table

The rest will come itself, when fish exists they want it or not they will stack off light thats from where our profit comes instead of playing vs nitties who never stack off light


This feels like Paisting's thread except you're trying to play well, just with no effective method to do so

Yes the pool is improving, but that's only because the public resources are so much better nowadays

So there's people (like KHANYAY) who can use them effectively and rapidly improve, and others who the game will pass by

You have a lot of fish in the micro R&C pools, just not as much of the 50+ VPIP guys or players that randomly open shove 100bbs because the patience factor is eliminated in fast formats. It's not useless to know how to play against fish because that is a big portion of the pool you play in, and where your potential winrate comes from. You could be 20bb/100, 40bb/100 or 60bb/100 winner against the same fish, depending on how good or bad you are at exploiting them. Regs also have big leaks you could take advantage of, same goes for nits. Your potential winrate is hugely determined by how good you are at spotting leaks of different players and player types, and what your adjustments are. You can test yourself. List 3-4 player profiles and give all of them 1-2 leaks per street or spot coupled with the potential exploits.


This type of fish i love the most



600 candies collected, not opening until end of event, will collect as much as i can to aim for that 1k$ jackpot lol



Up +10 BI today, during 6k hands they stacked me off only 3 times, one KK vs AA, second TT vs JJ vs weak range and third shoved 66 pre out of tilt, i need to eliminate such punts in the future


biggest pot of todays session, thats why its good to play deep, even tho i was little afraid of QQ



Here i had attempt to stack off a guy for 200bb, he had big hand here like AA/KK probably should have raised turn?



This is how my redline looks like when i open raise first, i have 55 WWSF


This is how my redline looks like when someone open raises first and i call from SB/BB, i have 40 WWSF


Should i play more aggro as i caller or?

Their flop shove is mental. Definitely worthy of a note.

It’s more like they do it for safety, as i understand this psychology they’re afraid that im on a draw and if they call they know they’re deep and they can’t fold after


Yesterday i took some time to work with filters on PT4, its mind boggling how confident can i be sometimes and wrong in the same time

I thought opening from BTN/CO with unsuited 6 or lower kicker hands like J5 T6 64 etc would still be profitable considering how fold heavy is zoom pool but filters show these kind of hands just not profitable, also calling from the blinds wider burns the money too etc

Base fundamentals so strong


Watched Jonathan Little’s youtube video about fundamentals just to compare my ranges

My ranges are actually close to this what 2 pictures show below but i open little tighter from early positions and wider from late positions and almost always raise from SB vs BB (not calling) should i change that?



Here below picture shows 3bet calling range but do you guys find calling 3bets with this range profitable? Some players just 2 barrel postflop and we are in awkward spot, I prefer 4bet vs weaker range or fold



Those 3b calling ranges look insane. I'm a confirmed nit if that's a profitable calling range


Maybe its like no rake or smth but looks extremly off..


Isn’t this for tournaments?


jonathan little is a ~2010 MTT pro, not an online cashgame expert...


yup, i think i found more legitimate preflop ranges



still missing ranges when im facing 3bets etc need to work on that later on (if anyone can provide will be thankful)

for now started playing new session with little adjustments


I got good value here, my thought process was like:

By double barreling here i want villain to think im on a flush draw, then i overbet the river, now he starts to think maybe im on a busted flush draw, why would Q overbet here? either it's 8 or bluff, he thinks 8 is unlikely to be in my range that often so he decides to call



Here knowing I'm beat still calling the river (stupidity)

I understand this GG pool so well, they always have it when they bet so big on the river but i can't help myself to make disciplined laydowns


It's so easy to crush GG micros if you're capable of folding hands like this all the time, consistently and apply base fundamentals

And time to time game will give you gifts like this, there are always few spewy guys in the pool

I'm pretty sure if you're folding river to a 14bb bet here then it's a massive leak!

We think that way and thats where the key of success hides to understand pool tendencies, they never ever donk that big on the river if they don't have a hand that beats us almost always

It can be huge +EV spot if we fold there every time (again considering the pool)


Bro wtf hes not donking. U xb the turn.

Ur hand is just a snapcall.

And ur assumptions are wrong on how pool plays.
