    What does focus on playing mono/paired boards entail?

    Not sure how important it is to focus on types of boards that are far more rare than other types of boards?

    Maybe not so much mono flops, but deffo paired flops. I'm trying to focus on not spewing/bluffing because I don't believe people when they raise me on a paired board because "lol, why would he raise me when he has the board crushed?" I seem to have a tendency to 3bet and then shove turn, if called, if I think I have picked up any additional outs.
    Currently grinding live cash games. Life is good.

    Mistakes are a function of how bad it is and how often it happens. If you're spewing on paired or monotone boards then working on them is definitely fine as long as you aren't catering your preflop game specifically for that because it's not the most important thing. They definitely both happen enough to be aware of how to play them though imo.

    Also Sorry to hear about the bad news cobra. Well done for realising the volume goals may not be possible and making sure you put more important shit first. Even if you're just getting in a couple of hours a day you'll still progress really quickly as it's more than most people.
