toJongbraNdon is pretty good. Makes moves when spots are available, plays straight forward, and not too aggressive. I generally practice avoidance and I think he does the same. Coldcalls with AA and tries to get tricky.

TwistedDonkey is super tight and fires multiple barrels. I open up substantially in position and usually get to see a turn. He will pay off since, in general, his range is so well defined as a big hand. I've had no luck 3-betting.

Its not a lose-lose if you are willing to go one step beyond your opponent.

If you both exert the same pressure on each other then yes it will be a wild rollercoaster ride but if you are willing to push just a little harder then you will profit in the long run.

(Edit: There will be a lot of variance in the middle but that is why we have big BRs amirite?)

Yes- you will profit in the reg Vs reg battles IF you're good enough and prepared to put in the time and effort, but at what greater expense?

I suspect most of the regs who like to get over-involved with other regs may show a profit in those battles, but overall their win-rate is lower than the more sensible regs.

Narena, not everyone can play during the EST night shift where you can play 20/6 and kill it.

I mean no offense to you personally at all but for people that have to play during the day the games are very different. I know because I have played a few night shifts when I manage to stay up late and I find myself with no regs and playing close to your style...

Vizer is obviously going through a sick downswing.

I know the guy who started that web site. It is still in "construction". The site does not datamine all the tables yet.

It will be an excellent web site when it will be ready! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

What's the current deal with this website?

It's been up now for a few weeks, but in it's current state it's not much use as it still only datamines a small percentage of all hands played.

JPhil007- Does the guy behind it know when/if it will be able to datamine all hands?

I agree that it has the potential to be a useful motivational tool for players.

The problem is that he does not have enough computers right now to datamine every table.

Around 35% of my hands are in the database, so he will have to get many more computers obv.

By the way, his datamining is rigged, because it did not record all the big pots that I won. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

My brother plays at the NL$100 level and has commented on that a lot. He says sometimes he looks around the 8-tables he's playing on and there is a 3-bet on pretty much all of them. It really is shooting yourself in the foot a lot of the time IMHO. I only moved over from 6-max to FR in the last few months and my 3-bet range initially would made even an FR LAG's eye's bleed but I quickly realized it was counter effective at FR NL$200 to have that wide a range. 9-tabling I rely on people not getting too wildly out of line all the time and if you 3-bet like a maniac they will start to pull all manner of crazy moves leaving you with tough commitment decisions nearly every hand. Hey, if you've got 200x the max buy in as a bankroll and a 15 buy in 3 hour downswing is water off a ducks back then go for it; push the variance as high as you can until your opponents bottle it. Otherwise grow a brain and realize that hero 3-betting every other hand because you saw Gus or Phil or whoever doing it on TV really doesn't gain you as much as you might think. In fact, unless your play in 3-bet pots is impeccable it may lose you value.

Today for example I watched GabyGaby 3-bet a CO raise from the BTN with 45s. He then flopped a FD on an ace-high wet board and c-bet his draw as opposed to peeling the free turn. Lucky for him his opponent slowplayed AK and got burnt. I know GG is a solid winning player but now that I know SC's are in his 3-bet range I also know that it's likely he'll 3-bet AQ, KQ, and possibly AJs (maybe even wider) against LP raisers. I also know that there is basically no flop he won't cbet since this was the strongest candidate you'd ever get for taking a free card as opposed to risking being c/r out of the pot. If he pulls stunts like that on me my adaptation will be to decide on a suitable calling range (including the premium pairs) that will be considerably higher in equity terms than his 3-bet range. I'll then c/r him AI on most/all flops and let the maths do the work - he'll usually miss, I put the commitment decision on him and in general I'll have a stronger range. Our variance will be epic but it's his choice if he wants to pull 3-bet squeeze plays with SC's against a regular that simply won't stand for it.

You know the former USSR and the US never nuked each other for a reason....it's lose-lose.

You should take a look at the NL1000 tables. It is a 4-bet light fest! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

eric has somehow had a hand everytime past week or 2 vs me- QQ+ everytime, it makes me want to puke. I have noticed some leaks of his, that when he fixes, will make him a very good player. and no, im not saying what they are [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

count is V easy to play vs, imo. if hes up on me(doubtful but possible), its because of coolers in big pots.

im seriously running horrible, i think you all should play me when im sitting alone @ a empty table
