    Please keep posting your ideas and your hands.

    I hope you're enjoying the conversations. I am.

    Just keep in mind that you may someday be better at poker than I am. I'm passable and can crush the micros, but then I got a real job and I stopped playing poker like a career and that pretty much stopped my growth in the game.

    I'm happy to help you as long as it's helpful, but feel free to consider us equals in these conversations.
    If you keep at the studies, you'll probably surpass me in a less than a year.

    Here's hoping it's sooner than later!

    You really do have to pay attention to showdowns to get better at constructing ranges, especially when it comes to peoples' bluffing ranges. Most people can bluff complete garbage on the flop when they raised and got called, but do they keep on betting? If you see someone double or triple barrel AK when it misses, make a note, because chances are they don't like losing with AK. If you see someone check/calling the nut flush draw, make a note, because chances are they don't bluff with it when perhaps they should. If you know a villain likes to call down his draws, then when he raises it probably means top pair isn't good. But if villain likes to raise his draws, top pair can stand more heat. How a villain plays his draws can help you to play your value hands better.
