I have been losing money at a much faster rate, but I think its going to turn around as I posted before, I come flying out of the gate and can make some cash but then these crazy hands like AA vs KK with a flop of 8AK coming up where my aggression gets me in trouble. BUt I think my strategy has been sound and I think Im getting rid of this scarred money thing I have going since I started. YOU KNOW ME (ROB) even said in one hand I just want to race anyone for $3.50 and pushed it all on QQ and got called by weaker hand that somehow totally dominated my hand when it was over. SO right now I think I might be in a somewhat money loser until I get some of the kinks worked out like changing up things but IM not quite sure what I need to change up to get the better results. BUT Did ya think youd ever hear me say, Id rather be fighting out in some pots that are worth a few dollars as opposed to .12 pots and takin them down.
Im coming in with sound hands but also Im starting to explore suited connectors or gapped connectors in middle and late postion to my play. and find they also have a nice win and a nice lose ratio. But if I can see a flop cheap and Im set up with something playable I will at least take a look. BUt Im gettng better on not limping and pushing it up when IM suppose to pre flop.
Just out of curosity IM BB against a UTG+1 person. I just get called so I have to play 56o flop comes 47Qo ok Im open endeded here and need an 8 or 4 to take this hand. I check, Dude in UTG offers me $4.25 (My thinking here is, he mus have huge pocket pair with this type flop or hit trips or at worst hit 2 pair What Q7 (unlikely) so Im like it has to AA or KK At this point I should have a 32% chance (Yes no) of hitting my straight. Of course shit I gotta start remembering that chances all 7 folds on the boards probably had my low cards but I took the bet and lost but It felt good that I knew what I was up against (which was KK) and I dont think with that flop that the guy had me on a straight draw maybe a 2 q's (not pockets)
