hi.GingerKid
about button opening %, if u open more, u have to decrease ur opening size, and defend more vs 3b/ weak hands
so I'd rather 3bb open button and play an easy postflop game.

My vpip/pfr is like 19/16 nowadays,

i play exploitative style of course ,
i don't use software I of course i play far away from GTO

GLP china is going to occur in 2017.
but in no way am I going to be invited for sure.
a cash player would just always live under the radar and be very bored sometimes.
hope it can bring some new traffic to poker:f_drink::f_drink:

Thanks for the answer. Why do you think that open raising 3bb from BTN comparing to 2bb has higher EV? Is that recommended also by other players, or is that something which works good for you? Imo 3bb open raise will result in SB and BB folding some of their weakest holdings which would call otherwise and play OOP, also they would be more inclined to 3bet than to call due to pot odds.

hi.GingerKid

its just something that works good for me, without any scientific proof or math theory. its just in my memory that by playing like this makes me most comfortable playing. but no proof that I earn more when i 3x button than 2x . ( i earn more when play 100bb+ but i still feel more comfortable playing short)

ok cool. Anyway those bottom range hands that some players use to open raise are at best marginal +EV so I guess that it can't be a huge difference if you open raise 40% or 50%, but I think that there is a significant difference if you open raise 3bb or 2bb from the btn.

GingerKid , i think u should play differently from the player pool which can make u +EV.
people now know how to defend vs 2bb a lot but they tend to defend worse vs 3bb.

now people know how to defend vs 1/3 cbet but they tend to defend worse vs traditional oldschool 75%~80% flop cbet
haha

The red pill and its opposite, the blue pill, are popular culture symbols representing the choice between embracing the sometimes painful truth of reality (red pill) and the blissful ignorance of illusion (blue pill).

Just wanna check here some facts
So you don't want to share where you play on while in China nor want to discuss anything outside of your 3x BTN 40bb effective MSS play?

How about cash out options in China?

hi, win like 100k usd in 20 days in during january playing a very strange site
then lose like 50k in february, very strange
the card dealting system on that platform seems to change now

in china its very standard that in order to make recreational player live longer, offical adjust the card delting system.
and now it seems that the system is to a point that unable for me to play profitable now
so I would just quit and back to my past platform ( online poker)

the site that I play is vvery fun actually
if u have qq or kk, the flop comes with an ace like 70% of the time becasue i guess fun player like to play ax and to avoid them being stack off by qq or kk with lower pair. so delt an ace to protect them

and of course don;'t play flush undre 7, becasue the chance of being fof is..like 70% of the time
and of couse i don't even open 22~66 on button, becasue.....
if u hit and set the fllop would not be k2x, it would be 789 QJt with flush draw
:f_drink::f_drink::f_drink::f_drink::f_drink::f_drink::f_drink:\\

anyway i would be back to online poker tomoorow
and I have to admit that i skip too much videos on rio these days
becasue what rio teach can't not be applied in that site:f_o::f_o:

you sound now like many loosing players that complain about casino being rigged, but I also heard that Chinese casinos are very rigged, have many bots and a lot of collusion at high stakes. Still even if it is rigged it might be possible to win. Maybe you were just unlucky and had a bad run, and selective memory (like Axx board is coming too often). If you want to play online poker with least collusion, bots then you should play at pokerstars but the drawback is that pokerstars is one of the toughest to play because most of regs want to be on safe casinos. So imo it is possible to play on rigged casinos profitable but you need to account it in your EV that your money is not safe and that it is rigged so you will not crush fish as you expect.
