hey, anyone know any good choices for an FR coach? i just want to be able to hold my own at like 3/6-5/10 FR because for some reason when 5+ people are at an FR table with me i start spewing uncontrollably and have to leave, and i figure if i want to move up i'll have to get competent at FR

just someone cheap and nitty or something so i can figure out the basics

[/ QUOTE ]

I'll coach you:

1: Get a pocket pair
2: Flop a set
3: Profit

Seriously though, everyone at FR is super nitty, they dont bluff, and their range in any situation where they raise postflop is at least 75% sets.

[/ QUOTE ]

don't forget about knowing when to fold KK in 3 bet pots on safe low flops

[/ QUOTE ]

LOL fish, ur supposed to fold it preflop then make a post in the FR forum...then wait to be told how good u play.

[/ QUOTE ]

FR forum is so gay.

Reading their monthly graphs thread and seeing all the graphs from NL10 (for like 50k hands) makes me laugh uncontrollably.

one of these things is not like the other

[Gildwulf]

goals: 20k hands, +10k at mostly 2/4 and 3/6 with some 5/10

I have to force myself not to play when I get home from a 12-hr day at work, because it's affecting my game. Even if it means only 3k hands this month, I'm resolving to play only when I am in the zone and awake enough to play my A-game.

[trplthrt]

Gildwulf, I feel 100% exactly the same. Post work forced poker time is not +ev. Unless I start pumping some oxygen and get waitress service at home to resemble a casino.

fwiw i had my bigges month ever last month in terms of $ by doing exactly this (the only playing when i could focus not the waitress) even though i played only 26k hands when i usually avg about 60k
