Pretty sick stats. I will say that I have a lotta trouble playing with you. You've done some weird [censored] like defend the BB with 65o and checkraise with the lead in spots that seem very unorthodox, but it's hard to adjust. You are pretty creative and I have to say you have definitely earned that big win rate. Don't you only play like, 2 or 3 tables though?

So you set a reasonably hard goal for yourself, but get insanely lazy and yet run white hot, and now you expect to quadruple the amount of hands you've been playing all while keeping up the same win rate? Good luck with that.

King,

I play 2-4 tables while I'm playing MTTs because I don't like to play more than 6 tables at once.

When I'm just logging a 5-10 session, play at least 6 tables, and sometimes as many as 12, but thats rare. Usually 6-9 tables.

and yeah, I was doing stuff like the 65o hand you described for a while, and still do that sometimes. It was part of a strategy I was experimenting with that was an attempt to copy much of Luigi66369's preflop game. I had reasonable success and will try it again in the future, but in weaker lineups like most 5-10 games it makes more sense to 3-bet excessively instead, and the style also requires a ton of focus and playing less tables which is a pretty big disadvantage for a grinder.

-Jeff
