+ EV - suckouts - bad luck - precise poker
I feel I have played very good poker for my first 20000 hands. I'm up around $20, 19,11,3. I don't cold-call raises, limp in early position and go too far with AK AQs ets. I play my pot odds orrectly and protect my hand when I have something. Where can I turn this time consuming hobby around? I know about bad beats, variance and suck outs but the whole things pretty pointless and futile right now. Please don't give me the standard 'please post some hands". Shillix etc, comments would be appreciated. Thanks

Re: + EV - suckouts - bad luck - precise poker
You must have some leaks somewhere. I've been there. As time passed I slowly plugged a few leaks I didn't know I had and started getting better results. If you find posting hands cumbersome, you should at least read through the discussions. Sometimes they set off a light switch.

Maybe you play weak-tight postflop? Folding too much postflop is definitely a common leak, believe it or not. POST SOME HANDS.

Re: + EV - suckouts - bad luck - precise poker
I honestly think i have a tight game. I know my ssh from my HPAP. I'm really doubting the fact you can beat this game though. I read Q-Tip's post about having a 100000 break-even stretch. Perhaps I'm having one of those dead card, 2nd best hand bad beat stretches. I've lurked here for ages and played a lot of cards. I see no significant leaks. Besides Q-Tip and other serious posters'; have you experienced this?

The players are so bad in micros that the big swings are less likely (I'm not saying they can't happen). Have you got pokertracker? Do you know what hands you're losing money on?

Re: + EV - suckouts - bad luck - precise poker
ive got poker tracker and im getting a lot less aa, kk, QQ, jj compared to 54os. I know thats part and parcel. AKs,AK, AQs and AQ have been marginal. If I don't hit and there is some significant action, three or four handed , I'll drop it, If I have something, I'll protect it. I'm playing party exclusively. Can you see anything there?

You know enough to know that you're going to be told to post hands, but ask us not to say that anyway. Hell, you didn't even tell us what stakes you're playing...at .01/.02 you're doing pretty well, 5BB/100. |

Thanks [/ QUOTE ] ok. *read* mass amounts of hands. *reply* to hands even if you aren't positive of what to do. *respond* to other replies that you don't understand or wish to add to. that's the standard spider response. now where's shillx when you need a post hands comment.. :P seriously, there is no secret or quick fix to leaks (or to discovering leaks). |
