lIlCitanul Thank you :)

lIlCitanul Thank you for your answer.
Can you explain more about the flop decision please?

What I also don't understand is why he bets just 1/3 pot on the turn. Shouldn't he bet 1/2 pot to then jam river? That turn bet seems so small

BubbleNedRum I didn't misread the hand, but badly explained myself. What I was thinking while writing was "He seems so tight with his openings that also his 3bets seem only for value"

Thanks for your answer. The reason is that I assume that specific opponent doesn't 3bet light. It seems the classic TAG who makes money at the micros by playing only monsters and value betting as hell. But I may be wrong.

Hey Manfred,

I approached the level up in this way:
When you have 110 buy ins for that stake, you move up, shot-taking that level. If you drop to 100buy ins again, you move down.
You must be honest with yourself doing this.

What about x-raising the turn?

Just a question: have you tried to play less tables? I think 16 are way too many, especially if your win rate is only 1bb/100. Imho you should try playing 12 tablet and focus more on villain stats, ranges etc.

freenachos thank you, I googled something about 'focus sessions' but I found only 'focus groups' so I partially understand your answer.

Kalupso Please tell me how to fix this mental leak.

Pretty sure Stars has NL5 zoom.
I just checked and there's 500+ players playing. That's a lot.

Maybe on Stars.com... I play on Stars.it and the situation is this:

Sorry, I wrote it fast and I lied.
Of course Stars.it has NL5Z, but for some reasons, people play on NL2z and NL10z and nobody plays on NL5z.

Okay, maybe I should write something about my "poker career".
I used to play on Stars (NL5), but I switched to People's Poker after Stars cut the vip system.
Now I play on this site with a 50% rakeback (that's huge compared to Stars).
However, I wasn't the only reg that switched to People's...the pool is full of regs.
I like a lot playing zoom, but for some reasons that I don't know, Stars.it doesn't have NL5z, it has only NL2z (I don't think it takes much sense playing that level) and NL10z (I don't wanna play out of my roll).

Forget balancing.
Forget double barrels bluff.
Forget all, start value bet big vs these kind of opponents

Really interesting hand.
Just a quick question: did you move up to NL10z recently or have you played this limit before?
I could be wrong with this assumption but I think that often times, when a regular finds a new player (40 hands means that you have no infos on him) he treats the new player as a fish.
For this reason, I comfortably fold river here as it's less likely that he tried to bluff you without any info.

Hey Risva,

His 4bet is way too large. Pick a note that he made this size with KK.
If I were you, unless I had a specific info (like the one before) I play my AKs like you did.
If we fold AKs we are basically shoving only KK+ and if villain is a "thinking player" he could easily spot that and starts 4betting you lighter.

Hey BubbleNed,

Against unknown I prefer a 4bet preflop with a powerful hand such as AK.
On the flop without any infos I fold.

Especially with the presence of the two fishes, the strategy you should adopt is bet big when you hit, and fold when you don't.
In this case the board isn't wet (rainbow flop) and you should be more inclined to raise to start building the pot.

Also, PT4 provides a very powerful tool: it's called Leak Analysis.
