Californians going to California

I lived in CA for 7-8 years and this is all too true. Didn't realize Tyler was a West Hollywood regular, though:confused: . (Not that there's anything wrong with that:cool: )

Not really liking this especially after he calls turn i mean you have to expect him to have a diamond.. and with half of his stack already in the pot i cant imagine you get much to fold here

That was my spew hand of the day and I had to post it to punish myself

I think it's terrible not necessarily from his calling range, but what were repping when we shove river. Were checking back sets, Qx, KK+ without a diamond and are only repping Adx, Kdx and air.

So apparently I'm a fish in the blinds! I think in general I just think about the stealing range of the opponents and base my calling range off of that. But I'm not like flatting J9o oop even though its probs ahead equity wise vs their range

This is my stats filtered for 7-9 players

These are my stats filtered for 7-9 players since I started this thread. Obv not looking at the winrates but I did make some adjustments such as 3betting more from the btn and blinds (specifically not calling as much from blinds), opening less from the sb, opening a ton more from the btn, and folding to cbets more ( :D )

Your current BB win rate is unsustainable and your SB winrate is still the same (SB stat are essentially the same too).

16/14 is fine. At FR as well a PFR of 14 is a nice TAG amount.

I just heard that saying watching Elf right now. What a coincidence.

Ok guys finals are over!!!!!!!!!

So its time to really focus and get grinding again but one thing that's going to get annoying I can tell already is that during break I'm normally busying during the afternoon/nightish (around 4pm) so the ideal time realistically to grind would be the morning. However, no tables run in the morning so I guess just start sessions around noon and pray that I can get tables going.

If I can't get enough 50 tables, then I'll just put some 20nl tables in

Maybe you should try to play when the games are better / there are more tables rather than trying to have such an active social calendar?
