Getting annoyed by FTP

[zomfgwtfbbq]

With regards to my opening post, I've been running better sure I don't win all my sessions but I do win a majority of the time now. (after doing some soul searching :P) As many people say its all value betting value betting and value betting!! Oh and hit sets and pwn people who stack off with TPGK kinda stuff.

Gonna hit NL25 in a few days as soon as I can get my BR over $650ish (bankroll nit NIT NIT NIT NIT just dropped like 4 buy ins when i was at $620ish).

Like eveyrone says don't try and bluff. Do it at a minimum and I'm guessing you fire more double barrels than you should anyway. Don't go aggro monkey. In the micros, just be aggressive enough but allow people to overplay their hands and just own. Simple as that.

Take it easy.

OH btw, deekay says play tag... yea yo ucan play tag and win.

I'm superubernittag with like 16/10/3 or something lol.

I think 16/10 is still a little loose. I obviously don't know your game, but having that big of a gap between your VPIP and pfr is generally a leak at the micros. Try tightening up to like 15/13 or 16/14. Seems kind of counter intuitive to be tightening up when you are opening more, but you are tightening up your calling range a lot, and that is what you want to do. You want to be the aggresor in the hand most of the time, so try to close that gap.

I am 14/12/3. Mycbet is like 80% though, so I am trying to take Deekays advice and toning that down quite a bit, and trying to not cbet 3way pots ever.. even on AK2r boards.

The thing that tilts me the most, is the flop minraises... obviously I fold, but then once or twice ive called with two pairs and called it down and they've had AIR. so it makes me think about all the other times I fold TPTK. to min raises. Disgusting.

hand reading helps me thinks. Like when you raise pf, you can expect them to be put on a range of hands they'd call you with. Based on the flop likelyhood of hands and like if they have the worst case hands how good is your hand to improve etc...

FTP today playing less than 30 minutes.
me AA
they 77
they min raise pf to .20 I rr to.90 they call flop 27K rainbow I bet 3/4 pot they shove as they only have 3.50 left I call. I put them on Kx being short stacked they didnt have odds to set mine but against me it doesnt matter as they usually hit when I have AA, KK or QQ.

me KQs
they 66
they pfr to .35 I call
flop 6T2 gives me flush drw they bet small I call same on turn
river pairs board and gives me flush I bet they reraise I call. I again put them on large pair or AK,

me QQ
they AKs
I raise pf to .35 they reraise to 1.50 I call
flop was Q94 all spades I bet they reraise I shove they hit nut flush while I had set

Are these bad plays by me or I just have worst luck on FTP? Deposited $400 couple month ago and hovering at $420 now after rakeback and $100 bonus release which means I really am losing big time. I play fairly tight and seem to always do good first few minutes then hit one of these type hands that sucks over 100bb from me then kills my session. Sorry for format of hands but do not have HUD.

2day (lost all hands with AA, KK, AK, QQ, JJ and also all my flopped sets - 3 of them)

whats with that picture?

it's all fine when u miss all of ur hands. no matter of positional play, no matter of tag style u can't win if u smash all in with AA on the A6T flop and ur opponent hits 7 and 8 to complete his straight.
over and over again, every single time.

That graph basically looks like mine for today at NL25 zzz LOL. Decided rather than tilt money, I decided to get some Wc3 going.
