update on my new postflop "opposite of FGators" style.

my W$WSF is now 40% (used to be 35%), my turn and river AF (esp river) are way higher. handreading has now become super duper uber important (my cards aren't enough anymore). VPIP is up.

still not sure if this style is necessary for 50nnl. but i feel like i'm finally playing poker.

What areas of your postflop game are you focusing on Derosnec?

I really think that Clayton post is going to have a quite profound effect on my game. Although, to be honest, I'm still trying to fully digest it. But I have made a start on trying the anti-FG style too and it does feel good.

I think better value betting (especially on the turn), playing back at cbets a bit more, floating, blind-stealing and positional stealing are the main areas I'm looking at. Also, better preflop 3b and positional raising.

It works at NL5. My W$WSF there was 40.91 over 32k hands. Just find spots where its obvious opponent can't take the heat and bomb it. What I do, although I been wrong quite a bit, I have been right more often and the amount of learning I'm doing has to be invaluable for my game.

Eventually I hope to develop into the Fabian frame of thinking but I am a long way off from that. If you didn't catch that brag he posted in BBV I saved his PT stats and EV graph.

As my last words in this matter since I started the whole irritating, idiotic debate:

- I find the avatar funny
- I don't wanted to say that you should stop using it or that you are a racist
- I just wondered that the mods let you get away with it since these kinds of things are usually heavily banned on 2p2
- I complimented you on your attempt of leveling in my first reply to your "defense"
- I don't give a flying [censored]

In other news, I played 2.5K hands for a whopping profit of $3.06. But I get a ton of rakeback for it.

Lessons learned:
- I suck at playing more than 4 tables at once.
- I tilt like a cow as soon as I'm down 60BB
- This tilt is mostly verbal and results in physical damage to objects.
- I usually drop 1.5 bis within the first 100 hands in every session and need to fight for the whole session to get it back
- I guess that my PokerEV graph for all-in luck will look very funny, but I won't prepare it, because it will probably not be as bad as I expect and I think this stuff is silly. But I have seen some really weird stuff. 3way All-In preflop with AA vs 55 and QJo: QJ makes two pair, 55 a set. 66% favorite only, but you get the idea.
- A button labeled "All-In" will result in many people making absolutely horrendous plays, esp. open pushing preflop with 30BBs. I have it disabled.
- there are still sites out there where the way people play can only be labeled: Madness.

FYI: Today I met one of those opponents who will donk with a 2 BB bet into a you who raised preflop. They then call a raise and will donk the turn for the same 2BBs on a 9hi paired board. I asked one of them why he would do that.
His answer:

"To see if you really have two good cards."

As to the hand: I had a JJ overpair, called his turn donk to control the pot, he rivered a K for his AK.

Maybe you can use this insight into those people's minds to your advantage.
