Am I Shoving Good Here Or Just On A Cooler From Hell?


Recommended Posts

OK Maybe this needs to go under bad beats , but I am just wanting to make sure I am getting it in correctly here. Is this just a typical variance swing here?? In the past 6 months I feel like I have ran bad for a few games, or a day or two, but right now mentally I'm f$%^&ed. This is just a sample of the past hour, but this same thing has been happening for 4 days now, and over about 30-35 games. Am I shoving in wrong spots here, need to be 3-betting some of these, etc. It's just frustrating when you go deep in these and FT cash big a few times, then go on a run where you can't get back to even min-cashing. Is there any major problems here?!?!?!? $3r 180-man Here, eatyourstac was a supernova playing a bunch of tables, and he would open shove from the jump, but showed any paint, that is why I made this move.

1. KJs - fold2. KQs fine3. AJo - 600 or fold pre and fold to the reshove unless he's very loose - (edit he's in later position than I originally read - raise calling AJ is here is probably okay although not a huge winning play. Depends a lot on how loose the player is)4. QTs- i'd fold since you are against an UTG+1 range and you're gonna get shove spots in the next few hands5. 88 - close6. AJo - good7. KQo - unless he's batshit insane, fold, call from blinds 8. JJ - probably kinda close but I'd never fold in game.9. AKo - lol?10. 77- fine11. 22 - If you're ask if I'd jam this pre then the answer is no. 55+12. JJ - lol? (edit - I think the HH messed up here...says someone folded after you shoved from BB...did UTG limp or something?)13. A7o - I looked this up and it's a fold (edit - altohugh I think it's okay if the table is playing fairly tight)

Cool. Thanks for going over all of that. Basically I need to tighten a little more, and pay more attention to where v's are shoving from. Allright here is two more. Went deep again, but here was 2 questionable hands.BTW- on #12 I was SB. BB folded.BTW - I finally broke my 0-35 sng streak, with a 3rd place $3 18 man.

Raise bigger with the AQo (2650) and I'd probably call off there as a default. I think you're against a lot of pairs/random broadways and a few hand that crush you. To be honest I don't mind just jamming initially although most will think it's a little on the big side.w/AJs that guy is a reg and I can't remember exactly hw he plays. He's never raise folding but he does have a lot of chips so is probably not super tight here. He won't have random trash in his since he is committed to calling half of the stacks at the table but I reckon AJs is going to be in good shape against his range.This is probably the worst ace I get in here vs a normal reg. You should be getting in at least 8s if you're getting in AJ...maybe 77 ...AQ+ JJ+ is not a compatible range.

Gotcha. There's too many damn regs in these $3 rebuy. One last thing to pick your brain with. If you are at 15bbs and about 40 people or so left, if you have A10 suited UTG with the blinds at 800/1600, are you just open shoving here?? This happened earlier, and I raised a little, got 2 callers, 10 comes on the flop as highest card dry board. I shove, get 2 callers all similar stacks, and get drawn out on. Should this be a fold or open shove from UTG with ~15bbs??Thanks again for your help. I finished 1st in a $3 18 man, so I am getting warmer, and been going deeper and deeper in the $3 r, but just can't get back to the promise land. :club:

in rebuy period? hand one is a spew imobc if not i fold hand 2, but if it is then thats fine.hand 3, i like to 2.2 or 2.5X pre and fold to 3 bets. FOLD THE 8's, wild gamble imothe jacks hand, i know it is painful but you are not looking great. i would maybe fold if i was on my game. the a7 hand, im not folding that pre to open a pot with that stack. even more so being UTG with a tight preceived range. easy ship imo. the AQ hand im not folding pre, too strong. i could let Aj off go.

edit - one thing I'm reading tells me this is a profitable shove, another does not. It's very borderline and I'd usually fold unless the table was playing super tight. I'd very rarely open.0/35 is ultra standard. I probably do it once every three or four sessions. I once went 0/75

No, all of the hands above are WAY after the rebuy period. I can get thru that just fine, alot of times with starting with 3k chips, and add on. I have trouble deeper in, as you can tell. Still just too loose.I am a gambler by nature, not a strategic guy, so it is hard to get out of that "throw some shit at the wall and see if it sticks". But, I have got alot better at folding Ace-rags and small PPs OOP and OP if the situation calls for it. Just still have leaks to fix, as would be expected for someone that has only been playing "seriously" for 8 months, but cannot get much volume in on a weekly basis. If things don't turn tonight, I will be broke for the first time in 3 months. Not bad for starting with $100, and cashing out over $200+ in the past 3 months.I only play 5-7 games per night, so 4 days with no min cash playing $3r and $6.50 18-man and $10 DONs and even $3 18-man is pathetic. Now, you play like 100+ a night, so 0-35 is just a bad couple of hours for you :club:, but you are also playing in tougher games.Also, looks like I keep putting myself in flip situations, which I ned to get better at recognizing them and laying those down.Don't know if I am having fun playing or enjoying the ass kicking and frustration :ts

Nothing wrong with flipping.Shaundeeb said (a long time ago) that if you're not getting your money in bad fairly often in tournaments, you're not getting your money in often enough.

Good Point. Today was a good hands-on learning day. I have been at it for 9 hours now, by far the longest session I have ever played. I've got a few $$ left, so I think it is time to run great or redeposit this week. Thanks for all the info. I swear I am learning, just wish it would show.

in rebuys the variance is going to be big bc you effectively putting a ton of games into one, so a few big cashes make up for a huge # of BI's spent. you got to go big to be able to make money in them

There is a lot less variance in rebuys for various reasons. Mostly the dead money of the people who don't make it out of the rebuy period and the fact that they play deeper in general thus leading to higher ROIs for the more skilled players.

I would have to agree here. Look at my sharkscope for the past 4-6 weeks. Especially the past 2 weeks. In the past 2 weeks I am pretty consistent going out in 40-60th place, and usually in the rebuy I will do the add-on before it starts, and the add on at break. I don't like to get super loose, but need to adjust because I may be leaving money on the table here. Some rebuy periods guys are super loose, and some you may have the same guys at the table all the way through the rebuy and nobody goes bust. On these tighter tables I probably need to loosen up a bit. Not in a sense of shoving, but being more aggressive on the tight starts. At 40-60th, that is when you are in fold/shove mode, and as seen here, is my biggest weakness. In the ones I have cashed big in, I always had a good stack going into 500/1k level, so it is easier (of coarse) to play than being at only ~10bbs. If I can be consistent going out in 40-60th, why not consistent bubble/min-cash?? To me, if I could get to this, I would be happy, and would give better chances to get into bigger $$$. Anyway, I'll keep plugging away at it. Thanks!!

Just as a comparison between 12s and 3Rs. This guy is a solid player who plays a ridiculous volume and you can see how much higher his ROI is in the 3Rs/how much smaller his downswings are relatively.I find the fact he has had a $5k downswing in the 12s recently somewhat terrifying for myself.WgOv0Sn0pjl_1_buA778.png

Corvair, do you ever play on FTP?
Transfered $100 over there a few weeks ago, just to try out Rush. Lost it, and don't care for rush. Why do you ask?? I hear it is easier there, but comfortable with the PS interface, but I can always get used to another.

The $8.80s are extremely soft, like WAYYYYYY softer than the regular 180 mans on Stars. Although I don't know how they compare to the $3R-180.Here's a hand to show you the type of people that play in these.feral_cow_icon.gifFeral Cow Poker Hand ConverterFull Tilt No-Limit Hold'em t20/t40 - 9 playersCO: t2,345 Button: t2,400 SB: t985 BB: t2,895 UTG: t5,060 UTG+1: t3,325 MP: t1,910 MP2: t1,465 (Hero)HJ: t2,855 Preflop: (t60) Hero is MP2 with :5c:ts (9 players)3 folds, Hero raises to t180, HJ calls t180, 4 foldsFlop: (t420) :jh:D :D (2 players)Hero bets t160, HJ calls t160Turn: (t740) :qh (2 players)Hero bets t260, HJ calls t260River: (t1,260) :D (2 players)Hero bets t865, and is all in, HJ calls t865Hero showed :3h:4h, and won (2,990) with two pair, Kings and SevensHJ mucked :club: :5hHero won t2,990

I did not see any $8.80 under SNG, but under All-Tourneys. Is this a scheduled tourney?? Looks like PS has more of a game selection per $ for SNG than FT does. I am in a $6.50 18 man now, and play does look pretty soft compared to the $6.50 18-man on PS. Turbo structure is different and faster than PS. I may redeposit $100 on each and do a table of each for the next week or so and see how it goes.Thanks!EDIT: Thanks Jon, I owe you a beer. Just knocked down 1st in that $6.50. Hopefully not beginners luck. :club:

Yeah, the 8.80s are scheduled which kinda sucks, because you have to wait like 35 minutes for the next one to start.The good thing is they're super soft and have a great structure.
