Hi, Thiamtan...
This forum is fine.

Disclaimer: I am NOT a coach!;

I don't like min-raising -- esp from CO. I know a LOT of people do it now, but it gives BB good odds to call with speculative hands. If you KNOW that BB 3Bets a ton, then a min-raise from the button allows you to call the 3Bets less expensively.

For myself, I'm still opening 3BB from pretty much everywhere.

I like your bet sizing on all three streets -- and I'm a bit surprised you got a call on the river.

The other comment I would make is that you should play with a full 100 BB stack, unless you are deliberately playing short stacked.

In this hand it appears that you could have won another $1.19 at least.

By not playing with a full stack, it costs you money.

Best of luck,
VS

Hi, Thiamtan,
I agree that it is good to learn more about cash games, but full-ring and 6-max are similar except that in 6-max the first 3 seats don't exist.

Have a look at No Limit Hold'em lessons overview and follow the study plan in there. It will help a lot.

Regards,

You played that hand well and your opponent was very unlucky. Pocket pairs with trips on the flop are always a great hand but so rare.

That's very debatable.

I know that theoretically full-ring and 6-max are similar but for me as a beginner it does not feel that way. In 6-max I always feel that I have to play way more aggressive.

It only feels that way because you are missing the first 3 positions.
The Early Position holiday.

Let's say for fun that you play 20/18 in 6-max.

So in 1000 hands you play 200 of them, and 180 of those are pre-flop raises.
Now we add 50% more hands -- the 3 early positions of full-ring.
Of those let's say you play 7%, and ALL of them are raises (just to make it easy)

So of the additional 500 hands, you play 35.

So of 1500 hands in full ring, you play 235, and raise 215.
So your stats are 16/14, which is a pretty solid TAG range at full ring.

You can see why at first glance the 20/18 seems so loose -- even though you are playing the EXACT SAME ranges from MP2 onwards.

Enjoy,
VS
