Bronze Level
Currently I have a VPiP of 20, PFR 18 and Agg 45.
I am new to poker but trying to study alot and focus on beating the micros before anything else.
I play tight and aggressively but I seem to be consistently beaten by the maniacs with VPiPs of 70+.
I always respect and believe the know how of experienced players, But the more money I lose to these guys the harder it is to keep the same tight style up. These calling stations that will go in with 5/6 unsuited and beat my pocket kings on the river, Or check/limp in with a 2c raise with a 3 Aces on the flop, How can you play against that? I find I play better when im more passive simply because I dont lose as much to these guys.
Entering a new table the fish almost always have more than the max buy in.
Im sure this gets brought up all the time. Its just hard when all the science doesnt match the reality (or at least my reality )
