Session #6

So today began with me trying to really put in some volume to make up for the lack of days not playing and the lack of volume overall. I prepared for a long session and while I did just that, it happen to be a very painful one in terms of variance. HUSNG are always very high variance so it shouldn't be no shock how bad things can really get but experiencing it as it happens, the pain never gets old. Anyway on to results.


 Today's Result:

At first I was just getting pounded by variance. Second nuts vs nuts, best hand getting sucked out on and even hands I sucked out on was getting re-sucked out. The first half of the session I was literally half miserable and grumpy, and half psychotic Dr. Phil like just talking myself from not raging. I managed to pulled through. It was really one of those days where nothing was destined to go right for me. I hit a low of being down 10 Buy-ins. I know you cash game players probably wouldn't want to see that kind of variance in one day right? However, I prevailed the mental challenge of keeping it together and the other half started to reward me. Not entirely, but good enough that I could bare it. I manage to start climbing back up. I think despite the loss today it's really important to know that even if variance don't want to swing my way I can still fight the good fight. My chips would indicate though I had more wins than losses but of course, because of rake, I still showed a loss. Which is probably why I should really consider playing somewhere where I can get a better rakeback deal than 888poker (I'll save this rant for another day).

Overall Results:

Funny thing is I'm back at that 4% ROI and I remember yesterday making a joke about doing all this work just to probably improve a slight bit better than 4%. I think I need to watch what I say. Overall, I like the direction of my game so far, there are definitely spots I'm not accustom to yet, so I still have alot to learn. Hopefully we can keep improving and keep improving.

Small Changes

So i've had a few days off to enjoy family time and enjoy holiday which was Yesterday. Coming back there were a few things that I was thinking about that had me concerned when it came to my Poker goals: 1. I did a poor job taking into account of holidays and how many days off I will be taking, and all the future events I have planned. 2. My unpredictable work schedule & 3. The amount of time study in particular actually takes. I have been doing a lot of practising of the new style, etc. that even though my goals are very doable they don't accommodate the real life situation too well. This my fault basically because I was wrap around the new style I was studying. To revise my plans a bit, I decided I should be putting in volume when I can and still review like usual, but remove the cap on the # of hands I should study and have no maximum limit per month of the volume I put in. This is to prevent me using precious free time which I might or might not have alot of in the future just going to study and not playing. I do believe balance is important so I do not want to sacrifice those valuable hours with family and friends just to squeeze in that poker volume and study. By allowing myself to play volume, it can accommodate for days I cannot play.

Study Session #5

---------------------------------------------

Conclusion: I am short on words for this study session due to the fact that lately I have been doing a bunch of other stuff so my thoughts are not complete. However, this is a great opportunity to look at the hand without any of my comment making any hand bias.

Results (Overall result):

Defend: Mistake (40%)
Aggressor: Mistake (20%)
Raised: Correct (40%)

Total percentage (Total Hands): 33.33% (15)

Session #5

So I almost forgot to post my session results tonight. I'm tired so I'll just keep it brief.

Today's Result: 

Today was a good day. The first couple games in, I tilted like mad and it wasn't because of the poker itself  but because of my connection. Had to take a break and come back to finish up my session which was definitely +EV. 

Overall Results:

Climbing up as usual. We're finally back up to having a ROI of 10%. I just need to keep it up right? So far my studies been paying off. I could already see the difference in my game. Going to do some very very small tweaking in my strategy to fix up some spots where I keep noticing I'm just too weak in. Hopefully it pays off.

Let me know what you guys think so far.

So basically today went pretty well. Everything is a bit more simpler than the last study session so let's get into it.

Comment: This hand I decided, to check out the river range here to see If checking back the river if he had check to me would be correct. As it turns out I would have been correct if he had check it to me. After seeing so far my marginal spots is where I'm finding alot of trouble, These type of spots weather I have that borderline bluff or value, I think I should at least be looking at these type of hands once a day until I develop that natural instinct to make better decisions with them.

Comments: In a cash game this would be an easy fold right? This hand tortured me during the time of play. What I was thinking is when I get here to the river like this, because I divided my range, I won't have any flush here often. However, it comes at the cost that a lot of times people who call too much would lose a lot of for chasing their flush and I decrease their odds by filling my betting range with blockers. But when I do have a hand like this and the flush do pops up like this, based on the mathematical unexploitatable percentage. I have to be willing to call here with Kx and better. Crazy huh? At the time, I was just lost and thought I'm suppose to be folding a lot more combos I give myself credit for. I was really confused about how I should be calling so I decided to play it like he had the nuts and just review the hand. Now that I did review it, lesson learnt. I guess we starting to see where an unexploitable game can have it flaws, I mean yes we make a lot of money from their calling/folding mistakes but when you start factoring in raises, it saves you a lot of money if you just had the information required to play exploitative against these. Until you do, close your eyes and cross your fingers because the math will require some major Hero calling here.

Comment: I had a real easy time reviewing this hand. Honestly, for you'll cash game players out there, enjoy your study session because compared to having wide ranges. Anyway, This hand was something I needed to check, I just didn't know how I should be shaping my bottom range and shaving off my bottom range to these kinds of play.

----

Conclusion: I've been thinking about how I have been shaping my  ranges so far, I may need to think about splitting it off a bit better than I have been but for now I want to learn what I have been practising first and then make those changes after. I'm thinking about cutting my raise percentage down from 30% to 20%, to leave a bit more stronger hands to raise with when calling down to the river. What you guys think?

Today's Result (Overall results):

Defend: Correct (50%)
Aggressor: Correct (25%)
Raised: Mistake (25%)

Total Results (Total Hands) - 33.33% (12)

Session #4

I'm quite fatigued today from Poker so I'm a bit short on words to describe today's session. However, one thing I can say, it was a roller-coaster. I actually realized my equity in my EV which helps a lot.
Anyway onto the good stuff.

Today's Result:

As you can see, I went on a brutal downswing but luckily I started to heat up when it mattered the most and dig myself out of the swing fairly quickly. I was more lucky today than anything. Was getting it in a standard coolers and sucking out. So I'll make sure remember today next time I go through a session getting sucked out on.

So looks like despite the hot run, I was still able to at least do some good in my non-showdown pots. That's always good right? I mean if we keep our non-showdown going like this then I just need to run good more than enough to turn some major profits right?

Overall Results:

Well I'm finally running above EV so I guessed it's safe to say we are getting treated pretty fairly and hopefully this heater continues in these games. We're up to a ROI of 7%. Have to keep this up to push over that 10% ROI mark and just keep getting better to stay there. Have to keep that study going. I've seen the result of my studying paying off as I was able to spot couple different scenarios where I would of made the wrong decision but I'm getting there. :)

Chip graph starting to look beautiful. I mean just look at this graph of beauty.

Today, I've had a lot of thinking to do. Today frustration came from the Mathematical unexploitative style vs exploitative style. Of course my primary style I'm learning here is the unexploitative style, but having so much experience in exploiting players, I had several spots where I had this big mental argument going on so let's dive into it so I can get talking.

Comments: There is a few things I wanted to look at in this hand. The main thing is how my strategy would be affected being short at this point. I was considering taking my entire checking range and dumping it to avoid the variance and the mercy of the card run out but honestly, I still feel like that's too exploitable. At least I'm still undecided so I would love some feedback on that.

The other thing here is having a short stack or not, I am still lacking the correct play intuition with my borderline hands. Day before, I thought the pair of Kings on a A-High 4 straight board would be the borderline, and yesterday I thought all Tx w/ the gutshot would be the borderline. In both spots I was wrong. Here my borderline is Tx w/ the flush. I guess it would make sense overall, since having a diamond suit is probably the dominant force in marginal equity.

Once I make that call on the turn though, I can't really fold, but luckily we get to see one of the prime example why even though I hate some mathematically correct call you have to be able to just suck it up and live with it. However, this hand still was a mistake.

--------------------------------------

Comment: This hand is the main caused of my agony today. First off, I hated this spot for 1 reason, then as i dive into the hand itself, I found about 2 or 3 more reasons why I hate this spot even more. The main thing here is dealing with the mathematical version of continuing vs the exploitative version of continuing.

*Preflop: By him min-raising me, automatically my range will be capped in both a good way and a bad way. The good way is there would be hands I would be re-raising and that will decrease my number of combos going postflop. The bad thing is it decreases the strength of my continuing range where from an exploitative point of view, keeps his range open to having from AA to wherever his range stop. The biggest problem i have here though is even though my range is weaker, I still have to continue with alot of combos. Usually a bad sign of trouble is to continue with a range wider than the opponent, but the real bad sign here from an exploitative point of view is how wide I'll have to continue from what could be a much tighter range, with not enough reliable read and info and without the lead. I knew having a wide range Pre, would mean I have to continue wider than I would like but that thought was the biggest understatement ever.

*Flop: Okay so everything postflop, seemed normal during the time except when I went into studying this hand. First off, Flop play is pretty standard, I get into one of those min-bet again which means I have to continue pretty wide.

*Turn: During my studies i knew half of my range was folding here, but what i didn't know is in this spot I would still have to continue with the stronger tier of 4x hands here. This baffled me because anybody who play an exploitative game would know we probably should wait for another spot and gather more info first, and all that good reasoning. Most of us would easily and quickly assume this means value heavy and we should throw away alot of our range. Honestly, I thought this have to wrong, but the sad part is if you flip the script, thinking about villain combos at this point, say even if he had a tight range PF, there are alot of combos that just ain't connecting here but if he is bad enough to raise wide with alot of combos then this could mean anything, since villain will most likely be more aggressive than normal. It's the flaw of the exploitation when you sitting on guesses, this is probably why even though I'll agree with alot of exploitative reasoning, I can't deny that taking an unexploitative route is still right. Matter of fact this would be different in this spot had we had less combos to continue with in the first place, which makes me think I should be looking to either add some bluffs in the PF situations or expand my 4betting range against these min-bet to keep my combos smaller. To be honest though, while I can't argue the fact that defending the unexploitative % is right, I still secretly agree with exploitation reason, but I know from experience that these players are way wider than I would give them credit for alot of times.

The other part to this, I should very well be shoving the 88 here as well as my straight draws (Double gutshot) and those very few combos so I need to make sure I'm doing this and not being exploitable by not. So this hand still ended up in the mistake column.

Comment: So basically this hand the questionable plays comes on the turn. Honestly, I have to admit, I really suck at figuring out that borderline in my hands. After doing the study I realized the stronger tier of Qx is where I stop my bluffs, and this should have just been a fold. So this goes into the mistake column once again.

----

Conclusion: All pots won, all were mistakes. I just have to keep at it until I get it down pack. I'm noticing my studies getting longer and longer as i dive into the really good hands. I might need to think about my goals along with my busy days when I have to work long hours so I might need to tweak something to compensate both playing and studying for days with very limited time. I'm also good at picking the hands I make mistakes in which is good, so it shows I'm not hiding anything, so we get to see all my mistakes. My head is hurting though.........
