Message: [QUOTE="canbora, post: 6894458, member: 9538"] 6. Watch out for what I call Super GTO players. People that get into GTO WAY too much. You'll know these people in many ways. Dead give away is they're three betting you on the BB with K4 suited and such related hands. Every time a person has done this, they gave the pot to me in the end. As vince van patton says, suited garbage is still garbage. Don't be doing that. The GTO is playing against itself. not real players, when nits and tags raise you and you have garbage, fold or maybe just cold call to defend. Dont give them free money. 7. If someone limps in or small raises, they are FAR more likely to stay in, even with a big raise. If its multiple people, they're all calling. Do with this information what you will. Its part of the "frenzy''. 8. Im learning that huge bets, even all ins are ....stimulating and actually make people consider it if not make the call. I had what I call a Mega Draw. Where you're a coin flip or even a favorite without a made hand. I had rearise the UTG small raise, a considerable amount. He calls after being in the tank. I'm purposely playing half stack strategy. Pot is double my stack on the flop. I raise all in. He calls with K 10 offsuit. He had middle pair with an ace on the board and also called my three bet. Turn brings a card favoring me even stronger, I'm actually the favorite.....river is a blank. He wins. Again, do with that what you will. (This was 50NL) 9. I dont care for poker tracker, but I'll admit im new and I probably need to get use to it. It is handy, ill admit. But is it worth buying? Not sure. Probably. But I just think its a distraction. Theres too much info. I admit I made a mistake against noob. I had the info I needed in MY notes but was distracted and POSSIBLY cost me draining him. I had a monster hand. Nut flush with royal flush draw, I had notes that if this guy auto checks he has nothing. I was distracted from all of the info and missed/forgot this. I bet, he folds. He's a bluffer and thers a slight chance he could have bluffed on the river to get more value 10. People slow play over pairs in cash (vs tournies) to trap. Most espeically aces, but Ive seen K's Q's and J's . Also...let it be known I hate overpairs in cash games LOL. They are my biggest wins and biggest losses. My problem, yes I know. But still, my opinion. I feel more.......comfortable....... having high cards. Like... what do you ya do with the darn things? Its such a bizarre emotional sensation to me. 11. People do NOT 3 bet enough. I've even seen pros make this comment. You need to 3 bet. Also...because of this, 3 betting is a powerful tool. When you 3 bet someone, unless they have aces, kings, or AK...it stops them dead in their tracks for a second. Every single time. 12. As previously mentioned in a reply. Regardless of stakes. It seems to be 4 regs to 2 recs. sharks to fish, noobs to pros....whatever you want to use as a comparison. Don't engage the regs, engages the noobs. They're "feeding" the rest of the table. only engage the regs if you're going to steal or if you're pretty sure you have a monster hand. 13. I've seen few of what I'd call actually "good" players. Most regs are like previously mentioned,..id compare them to like the elite level common enemies in video games. They aren't bosses, but they're good enough to give you a hard time if you have a table full of them. They still make noobish mistakes. It seems to me, its not [B][SIZE=5]what[/SIZE][/B] you do in this game, its [B][SIZE=5]why[/SIZE][/B] you do it. [/QUOTE]
