I have been reading a lot of advice regarding limping.
I haven't done much of it except with the smaller suited A hands and smaller suited connectors — T9s and 98s etc
I widen that range for later positions too.

Another thing I did a lot of — cashouts
At PokerStars I was cashing out pretty much every all-in where I was marginally ahead — 50-60% equity.
It paid off this time around, but long term it isn't a good idea I don't think

Suited hands are overvalued, offsuited hands are undervalued. Limp a lot. Just do it. Always having at least 7:1 with 98o in a game where straights are way more likely and flushes are way less likely, it's just bad to fold. Plus, people play wider ranges and have less flushes and their flush draws have pretty bad equity.

Hands like A6s - A9s suck a lot. Your straights are never the nuts and the main good thing about you A high flushes/fd - to overflush somebody is really really really unlikely.

I'm not an expert at all but OP will back me up on this. I would assume normal winning VPIP would be at least 40% and even that seems conservative to me. Main big leak preflop in this game is not playing enough hands. GL :f_thumbsup:

You ask about stakes or software?

Probably you should play lower stakes and then just climb up if you are winning player.

Decent :profit: this week!

Above EV but EV also gives us really nice profit.

Tables: 238$
Rakeback: 28$
Leaderboards: 83$
TOTAL: 349$
+ some GG cares for sure but I will check it after 4 weeks.

Despite 50% advertised rakeback I get roughly 15%. _cry:
