Samba Posted April 14 Author Share Posted April 14 Definitely feeling sharper, still making lots of mistakes though. Played the €25 bountys on sunday and shipped the Battleground for €850. Ran hot on the FT and won every all-in to HU where I had a decent battle with a guy who coolered me down to 15bbs but I battled back and picked him off a few times to get 2:1 and then coolered him back FTW. EZ game Gonna try and get more volume in so the blog will be a bit more interesting. ❤️ Sam 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samba Posted April 17 Author Share Posted April 17 Everyone is bad at PLO mtts. Here's an example from a 15k PLO FT that Alex Foxen blunders and the commentators completely ignore it "because ICM". 4 people left, payouts: 1 - $348,600 2 - $224,100 3 - $161,850 4 - $118,275 Hand starts @ 3:02:20 Duek opens 3559 badugi in CO to 2.5BB with 45BB. A trash open with no A or K to block 3bet ranges and very bad equity. He chooses to open it in this config "because ICM" I would go out on a limb and say he is basically opening 95% if he is opening this. 12BB and 10 BB shorties fold and Foxen has AAQ4ss suited to the A with 35bbs. He elects to flat "because ICM" Which the non-pro commentator immediately starts talking about whilst JNandez stays quiet and lets the blunder happen. Definitely the meta for most of the crushers who commentate. Playing this hand passively is fine but what about if you actually think you're good. What about if you actually think you're a favourite HU vs all of them? How about we put some ICM pressure back on the bad CL with the preflop nuts? Lots of good things happen, he folds pre and now you are basically tied for 1st. He calls and you arrive at a flop with AA and an SPR of ~1.5. Not so bad. You're still in 2nd if you have to x/f the flop Instead, he plays passively and gets bluffed off on the river after calling 2 streets. Eventually laddering to a 2nd place finish whilst Duek spews it off (standard) and finishes 3rd. This preflop mistake is worth 5 figures. Imagine getting to play 4 handed vs this caliber of opponent and still noticing these types of blunders. It's a fucking gold mine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samba Posted Thursday at 16:11 Author Share Posted Thursday at 16:11 I don't understand the picture, does it mean the solver wants to float 80%? And yeah there are flop 3bets, just didn't think 67o makes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estzen Posted Thursday at 17:38 Share Posted Thursday at 17:38 I ll look tha up when I get GTOwiz up again. No the hand is preflop, I thought you were sayng pre also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samba Posted Thursday at 18:24 Author Share Posted Thursday at 18:24 Checked it myself on GTOwiz, it likes opening it ~37% of the time. I don't think GTOwiz are the best ranges to use though, for example it wants to call off with T9s if you minraised it. The ranges I use it is a pure limp. Nevertheless, I guess I was wrong in my previous statement "I know it isn't a raise" so thanks. That being said, I don't think GTOwiz uses the most profitable GTO matrix since noone is calling off with T9s, JTs, A7o etc. so if you aren't calling off with those hands then mixing raise with all of these hands + overfolding to shoves will just get you farmed.

Estzen Posted Thursday at 21:29 Share Posted Thursday at 21:29 Havent seen the total ranges there, what do you mean by calling off T9s JTs? , you mean jamming them pre? HU is pretty complex stuff, from time to time I look over the stuff again and revisit, but its something I need to get much more into cuz its sometimes pretty frustrating. Its pretty crazy how different it all really is. Would be interesting to see post-flop stuff from Wiz. Imo always a benefit no matter what.

Estzen Posted Thursday at 21:30 Share Posted Thursday at 21:30 Oh that too. 20BB usually starts to like limping strat a lot, but vs some passive players, raising just out performs so much when the dont defend rightly, nor even Jam properly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samba Posted Thursday at 22:16 Author Share Posted Thursday at 22:16 @Estzen I was talking about the 25bbs GTOwiz ranges for HU MTT, it advocates mixing 67o and if u minraise ur calling off with T9ss pure if u didn't limp it. Which noone is doing. So if they raise GTOwiz ranges they massively overfold to jams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samba Posted Sunday at 20:29 Author Share Posted Sunday at 20:29 Put in a lot of volume at lowstakes PLO this week and ran awful, booked a small win overall + the rakeback which is nice. Should have won more but tilted off ~ €100 in some spots that I wouldn't have played the same if I wasn't running bad. Like this river spot vs a random who is taking the classic recreational "I have the nuts" line and I still jammed river. Not having the J to block 2nd set would have made it a lot more reasonable, theoretically it's obv fine but this is exploit city. NH WP GG GL SIR. Hand plays itself "SunGlasses4" is the player of the week though, he's mastered the min 3b with napkins /call 4b and flop the nuts XD 4b pre: Went for the tarp with double bdnfd + extremely bad board for range XD Blog Profit: £13800 ❤️ Sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samba Posted Monday at 16:04 Author Share Posted Monday at 16:04 3x25PLO tickets + 50 rakeback from €250 rake. Pretty insane really. Bricked 2 of them but had a nice spin on the 3rd. Ran so good I almost felt bad for my opponents. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samba Posted 15 hours ago Author Share Posted 15 hours ago No PLO games running so had to turn my attention to the lowstakes hexapro streets. 9 tabling and found myself sitting out on a table in the heat of it. It's crazy how I used to be able to play 24+ and surf the net at the same time, now I can't play 9. BOOMER confirmed 1/1 so far 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
