That hand has nearly the same issues with x/r bluffing as this hand. But it's always these 2
+ SD boards where the problem comes, interesting!

Clear all
Well a lot of it comes with the idea of backing off part of our value range
Also I think you should be bluffing a lot closer to 25% than 9% (i.e. when was the last time you x/r'd the flop and checked turn 
) and given most of your bluffs will have good equity I'd say 20% is minimum. You're still not x/r'ing QJ but you get the idea.
But basically it's:
1) Big, Big, Little suited flop in 3-bet pot
2) Middle pair shitty kicker more than likely drops into calling range
3) On brick turns realise you have no value range so you either
a) Slowplay the flop OOP with big hands on a board where he'll have a lot of check back (i.e. A-high gutters)
b) Just don't x/r much thus potentially inviting barrells but protecting your range with middle pair style hands.
Thx for the answer Boomer! Good summary how to play in these situations!
A bit of my poker future: I'm really down at the moment, really frustrates me, that this year I've got a 100k BE period, and 40k and 20k downswing period, and I tend to beleive, this is not a downswing period, just my fishy plays break through, and the long terms comes... My BR's 70% is in fpps, so I'm really close to broke, if that happens, I think I quit... With a deadly std 500 BB downswing even if step back limits I'm at 0 $s, so if that's deadly std thing happen, then I quit! And why wouldn't happen, this happened 2 times this year? Cause it's std variance bullshit!
But I used to make it so much better, usually I don't need 180k hand to loose more than 1k BB, in the spoiler my old 0,25/0,5$ graph...

Hello Guys,
another week has past, and here is the weekly summary!
This week was crazy, I don't feel comfortable how things are going, I didn't progress good enough, made some improvement, but not a lot, and have a lot of tasks from uiversity, and my job, and have to develop myself as well, but I think, now I have to prioritise, and the most important things are, in order:
- university
- reaching SN
- self development
- job.
There are some things with every of them:
- university: will write a test on wendsday, have to pass, or I will be in a kind a big trouble, didn't go well with my thesis, have to finish that in the next week, not going to be easy, but cannot do anything else.
- reaching SN: I'm at 91,2k points, so didn't played a ton of hands, but it's going to be all right, playing 1/2 - 2/4, so this shouldn't be a problem until the end of the year.
- self development: I was in 3 partys in the last 3 days, so it was a kind of a good experience, the first one was the newcommers ball, met with a lot of friends, it was fun, but couldn't stay too long, cause on friday I have to go to work, still didn't slept a lot, but never mind, on friday evening there was a birthday party, we drunk more than we should, so I missed yesterday completly, then yesterday evening I was at a party, with colleagues, I didn't met with any of them before, so met with some really cool people, it was fun until a point. I didn't drink anything just some good red wine, about 2 glass, we were at a wine shop, the owner invited us, so it was okay, a lot of people drink a lot of wine and shots, and in the party there were 3 girls, one of them was kind a dream girls for me, I know 2 of them by sight, but I think never talked to them, to be honest, here I talked to them not too much, because every man in the party was totally hitting in these girls (and I can understand why), and there were some guy who really good at getting girls, so it wasn't fun to see, but I think I can get some tactics from them...
- my job: I'm going to an AC 2 weeks from now, that can be a good experience, maybe a lot of self development, so I'm really looking forward to it.
A shot evaluation of the last weeks goals:
- 93,5 k VPP, I will step back to 1/2 only 91,2
- make a good food and excercise plan for the next months - collected some healthy foods for breakfast, and dinner, but it's not
- thesis , and finnishing the essay - nope
- clean the apartment - nope
- 3,5 hours of poker theory - 2,5h
- 3 hours of self development - social skills, and I found out, my biggest leaks is these small talks
So it's kind a sad, that I'm failing with these, but maybe it's because these are not the best definied targets, but cannot do anything better now...
So next weeks goals:
- 95k VPP
- university focus
- stick to the morning and evening routine
- 3 hours of self development
- clean the apartment
This is for now, see you!
Yo,
New month begun, and cool to see that reaching SN is closer than reaching platinumstar this month. ♦
Today will only focus on university tasks, maybe in the evening a bit of poker, but now the first is to finnish this semester good, and easily and slowly will reach SN this month.
GL for all, tonight the weekly summary!
Hi, a really quic post:
Last weeks goals:
- 95k VPP 93,5 k
- university focus - 1 of the essays done, the other is in bad shape...
- stick to the morning and evening routine
- 3 hours of self development
- clean the apartment
Next week:

- renew my vision statement
I have a lot to write, but I'm really tired, so see you soon!
Hello,
I "forget" to update this blog, az the end of last week, I felt a bit down, cause not everything goes well, I faild a class in university (totally my fault), and am in a waiting position, what will be my next year....
What's clear, I have only 3 exams left, everything else is done (or failed), and next semester will hand in my thesis, and repeat that class, and my bachelor is over. I have to decide until february if I wanna go to masters in Hungary, but I'm looking to scholarships to foreign universities. But not clear if I should go to masters, or not. What looks clear, I have the opportunity now, to make whatewer I want in the next few weeks, cause after friday, I wont have any mandatory tasks until january...
A bit about poker, I learned a lot about my mistakes, I know which part of my game need improvement, so I think, with a lot of hard work, I can reach the desired playing level... I'm running quite hot atm, and every day a bit closer to SN...
Let's take a look at the goals:
- finish the thesis
- write 2 good test
- clean the apartment
- self development
- renew my vision statement
This weeks goals:
- find a good present to my sisters birthday, have no idea yet...
- reach SN
- self development - 3 hours
- make a better plan to next week
That's it for now, a bigger post is coming next week, more about strategy, and future plans.
And the long-forgetten music:
if you are looking for help with your sisters birthday present, then think like what is her hobby or interests. Something useful regarding that.

It's going to be a tilty one...
I have no idea how to win in this shit, I must be so bad, that I cannot imagine... Maybe I'm the only player who are exploited by those 60/0 or 80/80 type of players, theye all own me in every fucking hand. I have a huge upswing in the beginning of the month, almost 250 BB, but every miracle ends, so the month is -50 BB... Yeah, and the shitty HM2 freezed, then lost a few pages of stats, so WP HM2 and stars! You rocks!
Yeah, and not to mention the ban of Azrarn, because some old mined hand hystories, If you dont punish a player abuse the shity seating rule and rob hundreds of thousand dollars, why would you punish a player who abuse the software, that alows datamining through 3rd person or by anybody and rob (???????????) a few dollars? WP Stars
666 VPP's away from the SN, but really hate this game right now...

Azrarns case i just read it and man thats utter bullshit. If Stars doesn't change their ban decision ive lost a ton of respect for them.
grind the 666 VPPs and take a break mate.

Don't be so negative, achieving SN is a big deal, and your results will be better and better.
grind the 666 VPPs and take a break mate.

Good Job!
