After some same play they making me unplayble my these hands aa, kk, qq, jj, 1010 if any top pair hit than my pockt or any draws visble in flop mostly flush draws they rase nd i cal nd they hits draws. .

What exactly are you looking at?
Where do you have your past playing history?
Do the online sites like Bovada maintain this data for you to mine afterwards?

Online sites do not maintain a history for you to mine afterwards (although you can generally e-mail them for hand histories if you want them).

Like many online players, Blob is probably using either PokerTracker or Holdem Manager to store his hands and evaluate his play after his sessions end.

Yup. Using Bovada hand converter and importing to PT4 then just filtered by hand value/by position

I've seen two responses saying A5 is junk. Lolwut? In LP or BvB A5 is fine, if suited even better. Smh

This is one of the things I've learned in the past week or so. As I'm studying equity calculators and using Equilab a lot now, I've seen just how powerful some of those Axs hands really are in late position or blind v blind.

It's not that Ace-Rage is statistically a bad hand. You have about fair equity in a family pot, you have decent equity on Blind v Blind or three person or less table.

The problem is that it doesn't play well after the flop. Even if an Ace pops on the flop, unless you have a wheel draw (which can never be open ended so it only adds 8% equity per street) all you have is top pair low kicker. You can't even really draw to the nuts outside of pairing your kicker without a leap of faith. Basically with Ace Rag no matter what hits on the flop you are going to get raised most of the time unless you do something like over bet. Statistically you have equity, but think what you are getting called with? If anything but the Ace hits you pretty much have to fold, and even if the ace hits you still may have to fold.

I just had to look up my own results with A2s-A5s :D

25NL FR:
I am winning 130 bb/100 over 224 hands :cool: I am crushing in CO and breaking even in BTN, winning in the blinds.

10NL FR:
I am winning 5.7 bb/100 over 1578 hands :) again winning in CO and losing in BTN and winning in the blinds. WTF is with the BTN :confused:


Basically you gotta use your position, if some muppet likes calling barrels down with A9o, fine, he will get his very quickly. It is allowed to use notes and all that.

LOL at someone raising me with medium Aces :D again, notes, hello.
