I'm trying to come up with a color coding notes system for ftp. There are 15 diff colors, but ill prob only use 10 or so because a few look too similar. so far i have

-laggy retard monkey
-huge station retard
-decent regular
-calls tons of 3b
-never calls 3b
-cally bad but not the worst ever
-laggy bad but not the worst ever

suggestions for others or improvements?

Bones,
Why use notes for 3bets? Just use the HUD.

Also, I recommend purple for d-bags that need to be slowrolled.

Folding a pair to a standard raise with 100bb+ stacks can't be good, can it? I like you're thinking overall though, John.

Paster says "don't do that, do this," I do it and it works well and I avoid awkward situations. I also 3 bet those hands a fair amount from the btn fyi vs certain types players.

That's fine, but there is nothing wrong with calling there even if you don't want to get in to a tricky spot. Just auto-fold a non set flop. I think the implied odds are good enough vs an aggro player.

SB is 19/19/4 through 58 hands, 7% 3-bet. Is a preflop 4-bet to $30 or so better? Can I fold to a push? On the flop, is shoving just giving him a chance to fold the worst hand or do you think he fires again enough to make it worth just calling?

Yea, calling a raise from the SB (out of position) with a small pair against a lag is generally a bad idea. Most people waaaay overvalue the amount of money you make post flop when you hit a set. A lot of the time you only get a continuation bet.

That said, you will be c/f the overwhelming majority of flops and you'll bleed money on these types of flops where you "call once" and hope he slows down. Oh, and even if he does check the turn, he gets to see 2 cards that may improve his hand.

Or he has 44 and is playing for pot control. Or he has J9 and is playing for pot control.

You say that hes crazy aggro post flop, but he checked back this turn. Wouldnt a crazy aggro type bet this turn all day long against someone who likely has a small/mid PP based on the board?

Either he has a small piece of the board, or he isnt as aggressive as you initially thought.

If you're on the button, this hand plays COMPLETELY differently and a call is absolutely fine.

Josem or anyone else,

How do I compare a processor's performance to another.
Like how does a P4 2.8 w/ HT compare to like a 1.6 core duo 2.

Is my P4(above) with 3 gb ram plenty for Vista?

i think 4 betting all in pf would be better than 30, only b/c i'd hate to fold to someone this aggressive. as played i don't like pushing this flop, cuz he's not folding a better hand probly, and the only hand he'd possibly call with that you beat is TT. i'd call and re-evaluate. i usually fold to the 3bet pf and stay out of this predicament.

It's not loading anywhere near all of my PT hands, even after following the instructions given. Get on aim sometime.

There's no way I'd ever fold to the 3-bet in position unless the 3-bettor was the world's biggest nit. I'm not expecting many worse hands to call the flop (TT is about the only one) and probably no better hands fold, but my implied odds are usually terrible unless the guy is really aggro. I don't have enough experience with these simple aggressive players to really know what's best.
