My small stakes career can be spilt up into two parts.

Playing 25/18 like the Mbenhoe chart and sucking. Lifetime I was a loser up untill 1/1/2007.
Then I loosened up and it took my 6 months to reach 15/30 from 1/2.


Please see my other post where I post results showing that all the LAG hands that NO ONE can turn a profit from in small stakes are profitable. And even significantly so statistically.

Funny enough this is using a db where 85% of the hands are 5/10 and below....


I am sure you do well. I am sure you are a bright man.

But you do come of as an idiot whenever you make conclusions regarding the unprofitability of the plays you dont make.

Its like me saying AA is unprofitable UTG and I have been folding it all my career because the fishies just dont respect my raises.

DUCY?

Cliff notes to make sure you understand the important part

I HAVE EMPRIRICAL RESULTS INDICATING YOU ARE WRONG, WHAT DO YOU HAVE?

gotta agree with this. plus I was never a big fan of the mbenhoe chart to begin with. I think you never learn how to play poker if you just raise based on a chart and never look at the table situation around you. Sure charts can give you some basic guidelines. But all of those marginal hands on the edge are +EV when played in the right spot (and you can add more in the right spots) and -EV if you just raise them because thats what the chart says.
