Default Re: 50NL: Winrate vs stats

In the 50NL games which you play in, i think you are leaving money on the table by nitting it up. I played a few hundred thousand hands with stats of around 14/10/3 and a decent winrate. But after moving up and playing in some more aggressive games, i noticed that there were many spots where i was missing value by folding.

The problem with playing like this is your simply not in enough pots with the truly terrible players at the table. There are so many players at this level who will limp in with almost anything, then either fold to a raise pre or to a continuation bet on most flops. Another bonus is that most players at this level won't re-raise without a premium hand, so most of the time you can just give up when you get 3 bet.

As long as your decent post flop, playing a style of around 23/19 seems to be much more profitable in these games. It's also amazing how lightly some people stack off, when you have been raising so many different types of hand
