Table Selection
How can i do a good table selection, in those wichs, have high averages pot or those wich low average pot? And about the number of players on the flop?
Hello there VVi10, thank you for your question.
A good table selection begins with you/Hero having position over weaker players. As a rule of thumb it is good to have recreational on your right, thus you will always have position over them and decide whether is better to call or 3-bet.
Following the same logic, it is good to have tight players and nits on your left, because they are going to overfold preflop and then you can take a lot of pots in optimal spots, i.e, CO x BTN/SB/BB, BTN x SB/BB, SB x BTN, BB x SB, SB x BB etc.
Tables with high average pots are tables where the variance will be higher since players are stackin off more than normal. As much more players on the flop worst the table, because players are not folding to steal very much and/or limp-calling more than normal.
We want optimal spots postflop i.e, heads-up pots where we have position over weak players, either recreational who have no ideia about postflop game or tights who will overfold preflop and postflop in some board textures.
