Started playing on unibet. Cash ticket for welcome bonus seemed worth a punt, and pushing to see how much of the playthrough bonus i can actually achieve.
No HUD definitely proving tricky at times though. The worst players reveal themselves very quickly. The passive calling stations are not far behind. It is figuring out the difference between, and ranges of, the good and bad regs that is proving the hardest by far.
Case in point is the following hand. Seat 5 is a bluffy fish. Seat 3 I have no solid reads on at all. I 3 bet to hopefully isolate the fish but both come along.
Flop is decent giving me TPTK, and has some draws out there which could allow me to get some value with my TPTK. Against villain 5 I am happy to get my money in quickly, unless the turn really stinks. But villain 3... I'm not sure what his 3 bet calling range is.
So anyway both the turn and the fish become irrelevant because Villain 3 raises me smallish, and convincing myself that this is just another guy getting aggressive with a draw I jam. (Population here at unibet so far seems to be playing draws very aggressively.)
Well egg on my face, he made the reasonable call against my 3 bet with 88 and played for immediate value after hitting his set. Fair enough. Got the suck out here and felt a bit silly.
This hand highlights what I am missing perhaps most of all from my HUD stats, info in regards to people making and calling 3 bets. Any thoughts on the best strategy to adopt in a HUDless environment? I've narrowed my 3 bet, my 3 bet call and my 4 bet ranges significantly and taken out any bluffs too, to become very value heavy. The one thing I cannot control though is villain ranges vs 3 bet.
What is the best assumption going to be? I don't want to overreact based on one hand, but perhaps unless I have a definite read that someone is loose or fishy I should be assuming tight 3 bet calling ranges along the lines of 88-JJ, AQ & AJs? Doing so vs unknowns might then simplify my decision making in spots like this when he raises on the flop. There are no decent draws in that range at all here, so raising with a set becomes much more likely.
