Wtf ??? .... Sputum, those are horrid stats (tho it is a very small sample)


If they are not tainted by sample size, you are far to timid in late position


(No offense, just friendly advice)

It's my entire 6-max experience. I'd rather learn it this way (starting nitty, getting a feel and then loosening up) than starting out 25/22 or whatever. I'm of the 'earn as you learn' school. I feel a little pity for some of the poor souls trying to learn 6-max from the beginning at micros who think they have to play '2+2 standard' preflop or they won't win.
I'm thinking of doing an experiment of say 5k hands where I don't raise preflop ever. Do you think I would have no shot at a green result at say 25NL?
It's not a criticism of the advice given in this forum because it's kinda correct [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] But preflop is pretty meh this low.

Don't do that experiment, it's bad enough what the fish call your raises with, let alone if you don't raise. You will be giving other hands a great chance to beat you.

That's no reason not to do it [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
Actually to give myself a better chance I'll just not be allowed to put in the FIRST raise preflop. It'll only take me a month to play 5k hands [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]
