1. SB si BB were aggressive 3betors, i didn't pay attention to them then so I just called to play IP vs CO - with those blinds a 3bet would have been better. Anyways, once I call and this happens I have a great spot to shove, I can see AQ+, 77-99 calling my shove sometimes, but I get folds most of the time, the initial PFR shows a lot of weakness when he just calls, the SB is weak by just coldcalling and BB has a big 3bet/sqz percentage.

NL Holdem $0.25(BB) Replayer
SB ($25.10)
BB ($26.94)
UTG ($45.05)
UTG+1 ($25.35)
CO ($28.75)
Hero ($25)

Dealt to Hero T♦ T♣

fold, fold, CO raises to $0.75, Hero calls $0.75, SB calls $0.65, BB raises to $3.75, CO calls $3, Hero raises to $25 (AI), fold, fold, fold

Hero shows T♦ T♣

Hero wins $12

2. I also balance =) SB was an agg 3bettor. And if he doesn't 3bet it's +EV because the fish will call and I want him in the pot, if I were to 3bet the fish will fold and the PFR also as well (if it's not a cooler for him or me). I know that my play looks weak so I hope to get calls from most of BB's range. (the same thing in the first hand - if I get called I expect to be ahead most of the time)

NL Holdem $0.25(BB) Replayer
SB ($55.35)
BB ($47.23)
UTG ($28.06)
UTG+1 ($27.20)
CO ($25)
Hero ($26.67)

Dealt to Hero Q♣ Q♠

UTG calls $0.25, UTG+1 raises to $1, fold, Hero calls $1, fold, BB raises to $2.75, fold, UTG+1 calls $1.75, Hero raises to $26.67 (AI), BB raises to $47.23 (AI), fold

BB shows A♥ K♠
(Pre 43%, Flop 24.0%, Turn 13.6%)

Hero wins $54.44

Mmmh. I'm still kind of waiting to see what will happen in romania due the regulation, not feeling like flying over and realize I can't play.

THIS and THIS

For the record it will not be a baller pokerflat where we make a lot of $$$ and spend it doing crazy stuff, but a study grind and analyze to improve a lot and go up through stakes pokerflat _biggrin:

Timeline is: start of Octomber till close to Christmas.

This is new to me, I'm so hyped right now, I always wanted to live in a pokerflat with other dedicated poker players. I'm looking forward to the experience =)

If you are interested in joining PM me or vonki. We are looking for another cg nlhe player, that is a dedicated grinder and has serious longterm goals regarding poker.

You must be willing to do the things today others won't do, in order to have thethings tomorrow others won't have." - Les Brown

I love this quote. I just read it today at the signature of a fellow pokerstrategy user.

I moved my BR on 888 and I'm plying 20NL, 30NL(mainly). I withdraw all the bad things I said about Pacific Poker from when I first started playing, then I didn't like their software at all, but now I'm ok with it and it's pretty ok and the field of players is indeed weaker then on stars.

I like it here for now, I have a 700$ bonus to release (400$ welcome bonus, and a 300$ reload bonus), I also got 10$ free (lol), I felt like it was Christmas morning, bonuses all around =) and their vip program doesn't look so bad. I think I'm gonna stay here a while. I plan to go to stars in January to go for Supernova, but who knows, maybe 888 will be a better deal. We will see.

I'm still improving everyday, playing and building my roll.

Oh, and the pokerflat at my place is off for now. Vonki won't be able to come anymore and no one else showed real interest in a grinding pokerflat till now, so will put this on hold.

I've started a systematic learning process (study plan) for PLO SH. I'm playing 2PLO and I think I'm winning over 1K hands, not sure. I withdraw 100$ from my BR to buy OmahaManager, once I get it I will be able to analyze sessions, hands and see graphs.

I'm still grinding NLHE. But once I get good enough at PLO to play the same stakes as NLHE my main game will probably change.

And I'm still improving on my NLHE game as well, as I feel I still have a lot of gaps in my game and my understanding of it.

I was very interested in the pokerflat, but unfortunately I just couldn't afford to move away and rely on poker to earn enough money to move to Brazil, need my parents providing me with food and shelter whilst I earn money in RL job first

[facepalm]I just payed $89 for OmahaManager, when I could have payed only $65 by pressing the "upgrade" button and choosing the option there. [/facepalm]

I missplayed this and lost 1BI, I should pay more attention to this kind of stuff from now on :f_frown:

@Wriggers, I totally understand, I also want to keep minimum expenses till I reach higher stakes.

You also could have bought Omaha through PS.com and have Omaha 2 upgrade + 500SPs for free... :f_biggrin:

Well, we live and learn. What's done it's done :f_grin: it doesn't help to get mad about it now, or anything else. I guess i will get the Omaha 2 upgrade anyway, because I bought 1 recently. And I have 2 licenses to use on 4 computers cumulatively (don't know if you get a new license if you just upgrade).

EDIT: lol, I can't use both licenses at once, If I want to see PLO graphs and hud I have to clear the license and put the Omaha license and if I want to play NLHE I have to change it to see the hud, hands and graph. I just e-mailed their support to get this fixed. I guess I won't have 2 licenses for 4 computeres anymore, but maybe I can get some money back I asked for a refund.

I got it fixed. My licenses were combined by the admin and I will also get a 25$ reimbursement. Great! :f_biggrin:
