So over the last few months I have been playing basically break even poker at $50NL. I have been winning at $25 nl. Why is this???
Why is it I basically destroy $25 and break even on $50? The players are NOT better. I am playing worse.
I have been working to hard and too long to let this happen. It has nothing to do with LAG or TAG or any other style of play. It all has to do with playing smart poker.
Since we are starting a new year and I am wiping the slate clean and hammering back down. Time to play smart poker….
Here is some mindless ramblings:
Call less, bet more….
Betting can eliminate the need to have a playable hand.
Location, location, location
If I am playing well, I drive people away from my relentless pressure.
Table selection, the other night I found myself 6 tabling and 4 of them had an Average VPIP of 18 or less… ideal for my style is 25 to 30.
Ante tables are fun… but draw the craziest players.
If you are better then the others at the tables, why put yourself in marginal situations.
Pay attention to the rest of the full ring table, when playing a guy with a VPIP of 40+… more then likely 5 to 6 other good players… a higher average then an average table.
Have a reason to call, if not raise/bet or fold. The opposite of most people.
Opening limping invites problems.
Calling with a big hand in a multi-limped pot invites problems.
Raising a multi-limped pot with a marginal hand invites problems.
Calling a multi-limped pot (can) cause problems, or (can) get away from the hand cheaply.
I just need to play with my head on straight and ALWAYSN remember… We make out money from Value Betting not Bluff Catching!
