Lately, my red line is going pretty much downhill. I've decided to plug this leak before anything else. I know though that it's one of the most difficult leaks to fix ...

But people on ongame seem to be big spazzes in the b/3bet bluff on Kxx boards camp, that I think raise/getting it in with hands like 89hh is probably reasonable even.

These guys that spazzes on Kxx boards are mostly fish, I mean not standard 22/20 guys, I suppose?

If anything, it's probably the opposite.

Its the aggro regs that are mostly the non believers when you raise some K24hh board, and especially if you raise a rainbow Kxx board. The regs will be the ones that fight back by 3bet bluffing I find.

Fish will probably just call oop with their AT or nonsense.

I guess I was mostly saying that if your red line is sky rocket down, and your blue is sky rocket up and overall green is going up then thats probably most important. But yah, that depends on how sky rocket down it is. I'd say most significantly winning players likely have at least a moderately flat red-line.

One way to fix this red line problem is to fold earlier. If you peel flop raises, but then end up folding often on the turn/river barrels, then just fold on the flop. If you call 3bets, and call several bets and just fold later, just fold preflop. If you often cbet a type of flop, and then just end up c/f turn when you're likely to get called on the flop anyhow, just c/f flop.

Decided that I'd give 400nl a shot on this site since yesterday, after the ownage of 200nl the last month or so. Things are still going well. I'm running pretty well, with a bunch of my 80/20's holding up. Potentially even running well to be getting into 80/20's in the first place, but I'll take it.

People are definitely more aggro though, with both 3betting and postflop. Probably won't be able to get to SD as easily and so the red line might go down a bit but I don't care as long as the green line sticks.

gratz mate! keep it up!
