Can you outline how you go about your color coding fish again?

I watched your old zoom vid, and it seems you define any short stack as green (definite fish), how do you decide what is a possible fish and what is a definite fish?

Also, do you generally assume players with big stacks (>200bb) are regs/solid?

Hey :)

I go

Dark blue: Good reg
Light Blue: Aggro reg/has personal problem vs me
Orange: Someone I should know, PS.com member, Mum or something
Purple: Suspected v bad reg
Green: Terrible
Turquoise: Pro shortstacker

Anybody who has a picture of a dog and a weird stack gets a purple and then change it as and when.

Steal a lot more on the button. When you have a big hand, bet 90% of pot, if they ar calling 70% they are calling 90 ;)

Generally dont just bluff flop and turn, they will be stubborn on the turn, so if we're going to go with it, we got to go with it like a man and go for 3 streets ;)

hey, very nice thread very fun and educational to read.

i have 2 questions for u if u dont mind. :)

1.) how do you analyse hands in detail? if i am unsure about a hand, i usually post it in the forum or discuss it with friends. but as a micro limit player i am unsure about lines very often and i dont really have "gameplan". so there are many hands that i would like to discuss, but if i would post them all, i would have no time left to play. :) so maybe u can give an example on how to analyse a hand in depth on your own.

2.) what video series do you recommend for a micro/small stakes player on sites besides pokerstrategy.

:heart:

Hey Pleno, how are you doing?

Im trying to make the transition from NL10 to NL20 speed on Ipoker.

Didnt see much different so far.

What do you thing is a good went to shodown %, and won at showdown for these limits?

All the best,

Nick

In the coaching you told us it would be, platin+ and perhaps gold+.
I started grinding for reaching platin. Now i am really disappointed. I was so motivated and its all gone now. :(

Hey dude! When you cannot reach platinum it means you have a lot gold articles to read. Keep your head up and keep learning and reading. Post hands and stuff...

Hey elchipriota,

Whats up buddy?

I don't think there is a great different between NL10 and 20, maybe NL20 will just be a little bit more aggressive. I'm not sure about WSD and W@S for micros actually :/, perhaps somebody has a good idea.

ah man, sorry about that. The boot camp was always going to be for NL50+, if you were grinding hard already then Diamond should be easily achievable. You can do it for sure, I'm confident. If you're playing less than NL50, then the boot camp probably wouldn't be super suitable for you.

What are you playing/where at the moment?
