Re: LC: How do you get VP$IP and PFR close?
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] standard call [/ QUOTE ] So, given the fact that your pfr is close to your vpip, does 22-99 make up almost all of your CCs? [/ QUOTE ] No. I also didn't say my pfr is THAT close to my VPIP, just saying that's how one would get there. |

Or just remember "if it's good enough to call it's most likely good enough to raise". [/ QUOTE ] This is the reason I have been posting in this thread - I don't agree. I think it is clearly better to call a raise with a small/mid pair, than it is to 3bet or fold. |

[ QUOTE ] Let's say you have 22-88 OTB and there was an EP raise and a few cold callers. [/ QUOTE ] I'm assuming you play <100nl? Cuz this doesn't really happen that often at 200nl+. To answer your Q basically just never open limp and cold call/overlimp rarely. [/ QUOTE ] this sounds like limit advice to me. |

Re: LC: How do you get VP$IP and PFR close?
I got my %'s closer by doing 2 things
1) I don't open-limp anymore. IMO, it screams, I have a low pair! By raising with these, I've been able to get paid off more with my high pairs, and mislead villain into thinking I hit TPTK on the A-T-6 board and he's gonna bust me with 2pair, when in reality, I'm holding 66. 2) I won't coldcall a raise unless a) There is more than 1 caller already and I have a drawing hand/small PP. b)I have position, we're both deepstacked, AND I know he'll stack off with an overpair. Depending on villain, I might do this with ATC, but usually I want some kind of drawing hand. After making these changes, my stats went from 13/8 to 12/10 and opponents' play against me has been easier to deal with (assuming I don't donk things up lol) |

Don't forget that just completing the SB reduces you PFR%.

Re: LC: How do you get VP$IP and PFR close?
Also raise more out of the blinds, most people are way too passive in those spots

Re: LC: How do you get VP$IP and PFR close?
My PFR from the Blinds is about 1/2 to 2/3 of my button PFR.
If I open the pot I always raise. I cold call nearly always with:22-TT, sometimes suited connectors, QQ and AK rarely with A2s to A5s. Sometimes I 3bet (off)suited connectors in position... but thats my FPS atm ^^ |
