Hey Griffey:
Didn't realize you were playing so much live. What kind of adjustments, if any, do you make playing live?
I have to agree that I prefer limping behind 65s on BTN. The way my games play, if I raise I typically get 5-7 callers, and playing a small speculative hand with tiny SPRs isn't ideal. I'm sure there is a difference in game dynamics that would make overlimping less appealing -- in my games there is always a non-zero chance that someone is looking to limp-rr me when I'm BTN, but you're probably getting 3-bet more from the blinds. I think deeper stacks and bigger SPRs are going to work well with your skill/positional advantage.
Questions:
1. I'm actually surprised that your stats are this tight. I've never played this high online of course and haven't played regularly online since BF. I'm sure you spent a lot of time working on ranges by position. Are your stats typical for regs at this level?
2. I'm particularly interested in how much you flat from the BB. I always feel like we should flat a huge range from the BTN, including occasional strong hands if blinds like to squeeze, and play fairly nitty HU from BB.
3. What kind of OOP flop checking ranges do you have as PFR?
