I did a minraise experiment today. Don't really know why, but it was fun playing like a total lagtard!



misplayed a couple of hands and ran $400 below EV so there is definitely some promise there. It's soooo much fun as well, I really enjoyed this session, despite the swongs. I think it's all about using the threat of position and the deep stacks, so I was experimenting with smaller cbets in position.

Also, I had a sort of breakthrough in my thinking recently (nothing major, just something I worked out.) In 3bet pots, you don't need to cbet so large because the stacks are shallow and implied odsd on draws etc. are less of a threat. cbettign 1/2 pot (or sometimes even less) in a 3bet pot with your entire range is at times completely correct, However, what I realized recently which is fairly neat is that a lot of the time, you are burning money by cbetting too large, in the same way that raising a river when only better calls and worse folds is burning money.

Assuming the stacks are shallow (100BBs 3bet pot will have maybe maybe 3.5x pot behind), you are going to have no problem getting villain all-in in three streets. By betting larger with your entire range, you are not getting any extra value, however you are making your bluffs more expensive.

Makes sense?

Oh and Atothec, my motivation comes from a mixture of being annoyed at college and me not wanting a losing month. I am stubborn.
