Hey Bikes, your post is great, 'Mean' has never bothered me. FTR has always been the place where you come to get ripped a new one. I'd rather someone do that than have someone suck my dick so I don't learn anything.
All your points are good, you've made me think about a bunch more stuff that I've never thought of before. You showcase why I'm still derping at 20NL and not moving up sucessfully.
Oh its amazing how horrible the /r/poker players are. Most are these fishy live guys.
I think one of the reasons why you see nitty play evolve like mine is because stuff like 3betting light puts me in really confusing situations when they call and I honestly struggle to navigate postflop out of position (and my opponents are very aggresive). I clearly need to get better at improving in those situations and attacking players. Its just hard (obviously not from your perspective) and trying to figure it all out is tricky, cause I tend to start hemorrhaging money when I try stuff like that (and I have when I tried to open up my play), whearas nitting up is the easy reliable (and as you point out, stagnant) solution.I also just need to think more about poker. Stuff like 3betting light a UTG rasier who folds all his non premiums to 3bets. It seems so obvious now, but that shit literally never occured to me. Your points opens doors in my brain to think and apply more, so thanks.
