VP$IP: 42%
PFR: 19%
can these type of figures be +EV over "avg PP25 6max"?
even when 4 tabling?
HOW!

Actions:
RRP: raise, reraise, push
RRF: raise, reraise, fold to push. use your brain here WRT stack sizes.
RC: raise or call a raise, fold to massive heat, except monsters
RF: raise or fold to a raise or reraise
CR: call and raise (limp/reraise)
CC: call and call a raise
CF: call and fold to a raise
F: fold

These action codes.. I'm a bit confused. is first letter preflop and second letter postflop and 3rd being possibly flop/ turn? I'm assuming it's all preflop but just making sure.


SB (or blind battle in general ie SB completes and you're on BB):
M: CC ?? I dont get it are you advocating to slow play with AA/KK

I think your post flop play has to be phenominal, which explains why fimbul can rack these numbers. I used to be at 42% VP, 8.2% PFR and i had some major swings because of leaks (many many leaks) in my game. I tightened up for these 1400 hands with 27 VP, 6.7 PFR and did about 15BB/100.

In caffione and harrington's books, both authors talk about how you can step up aggression if your post flop skills are excellent because you will face alot of tough decisions.
If your postflop isnt as good, tightening up helps keep you out of trouble.

these are all preflop. no way postflop play is that easy.

RRP means you get all in if you can, RRF means that if you're facing an all in bet, you fold, but normal sized raises you reraise and if there is no raise, you raise.

fim

PS i've had a lot of success slowplaying AA/KK headsup on 50BB stacks. I wouldnt do this on prima, but on party i took two stacks letting people bluff or bet their top pair to the felt.

Excellent post. Could you elaborate a bit on point # 8? You lost me a little with the 40<x<100 part. Is this supposed to be 40bb vs. 100bb maybe? I have a tendency to build a nice stack and then get passive giving back half my winnings before leaving. I'd really like some help on playing the big stack. Thanks again for an excellent post.

Fimbul,

Yeah, awesome post. I read every word of it. Great stuff. One question. How do you know they are bluffing on the river ? Seems to me if I knew you like to call all-ins on the river, you might just have a problem on your hands. I imagine you encountered some trouble from better players with this ? Or did you just steer clear of good players ? Am I being a jerk ? I know you are an excellent player but I have no idea when someone is bluffing.
