I'm trying to stop sucking at Stud 8 and I'm wondering what my poker tracker numbers should look like. Does anyone use PTS for stud 8 who's beating the game?

I've been playing a lot of mixed games lately and seem to bleed a lot of chips in the limit holdem section. What should my poker tracker #'s be for 9 handed limit holdem if I'm playing a standard TAG game?What about 6-max?

Does anybody know what my pokertracker numbers should be for 9 handed limit Omaha 8/b?How about 6-max?

Anybody know what my Poker Tracker numbers should be for 9 handed PLO?I've been playing 6-max for a year or so and recently started dabbeling in full ring games. I've been struggling. Any thoughts on basic adjustments from PLO 6-max to 9 handed?

I've been playing mostly 6-max PLO for last year and have recently started venturing into $.10/$.25 full ring NLH. I have don't have a damn clue what I'm doing. What should my poker tracker numbers look like for full ring NLH if I'm playing a standard TAG game?I'd love it if any LAG players could share their numbers too.

The satellite is insanely fun and i cash out the 5k FTP points after I win. Good value. You should try it.

you're right. I like raising pf a lot better.Any suggestions on a better converter. I'm pulling my histories from PT and have trouble getting a lot of the converters to work properly. (could be operator error).

folding preflop feels a bit nitty. I'm more interested in your take on my turn play.

Turn is a club. look closer

Fold A2 on the button with no action in front? I'm new to full ring games, but seems very weak...

How does that change in a tournament situation? When we're playing 20 BB deep?

insta-fold bro

Most people play sets like they're the absolute nuts. I like to think of sets as drawing hands. There will almost always be a possible straight or flush on the board by the river if the board doesn't pair. I say play a set as if you're drawing to a full house. I stack a lot of people with wraps vs. sets, and i've lost a ton of buyins with sets vs. a wrap. It's easy for holdem players to start playing PLO and think of a set as the absolute nuts. I tend to think of set as similar to top pair in holdem. A ver strong hand, but not necessarily the absolute nuts. Hope that's helpful.PLO's a

I say check behind on the river. You're seriously doubt a weaker hand will. But you could easily find yourself getting reraised on that board though. Little upside to betting-huge downside. I like what antistuff said earlier in the thread-it's easy to bet yourself out of the pot here. I vote for checking behind.

I just made the jump from $.10/$.25 to $.25/$.50 and i'm finding the players to be much more aggressive preflop. Opponents seem to be much more comfortable playing in reraised pots. If open with a hand like 8,10JQ from the cutoff and get reraised more than half the pot size by the button (fairly regularly) I absolutely hate the idea of smooth calling from out of position. Here's my question:What hand ranges should I be willing to shove with preflop when me and my opponents are sitting approximately 100BB deep.I hope that question is specific enough.
