Okay a few things I'm pulling out of my hand histories:

- Inconsistency preflop. I'm folding hands to raises that probably can cold-call (AQo and KJs come to mind here, just SLIGHTLY looser than "Tight" recommendations in SSHE), but playing hands that SHOULD NOT cold call (QJs for example). Furthermore I'm calling with low PPs (22-66) up front, but folding KQ from UTG. Also not pushing my equity edge with hands like AJ and AT by not raising from the button (Much smaller mistake). I need to clean this up bad.

- On at least one hand I check/called with the nut straight. Who does that?


Plus basically just.... TONS of hands like 42o J6 K5 A3o.... Oh well. Analyzing is really refreshing. Every time I do it I feel like I pull A LOT out of it. I just posted a hand in the ring hands that I couldn't figure out.

I know it may be hard to push with high cards or even call, i know if i had bet bigger i would of kept them from seeing the river.
i call with low PPs to if the bet is not high, so playing PPs can pay off when you hit trips or a full house.

Re: Playing Nitty


Not as smart as it sounds at .05/.1 or presumably at .1/.2 LHE. Or at least how "nitty" I was playing. Folding WAY too many hands worth playing past the flop, playing WAY too many hands not worth playing past the flop. Specific trouble with overcard hands -- playing nitty I'm essentially folding ALL overcard hands, which is definitely poor playing. The way I've been playing nitty is SO weak-tight it's pathetic.


Seeing improvement.
