Soft Pool

I hope everyone is grinding a lot of volume! The pool seems incredibly soft right now. I have averaged 88bbs/100 over the last five days and I am NOT that good. One adjustment I have made because of the general terribleness of opposition is calling a little wider on the river. It seems counter-intuitive, but, if I go through the pre-flop/post flop sequence, and I can't range Villain necessarily on the nuts, I have called down a few times successfully where normally I would exploitatively over fold to V jamming or over betting out of nowhere. Twice V had air. Once second pair. Once my worse set lost to V's better set. So, won 3 out of 4. I'll take it. VERY villain dependent, of course. I am talking players with VPIP/PFRs as crazy as, in one case, 88/12. Yeah. Is anyone else seeing this trend over the holidays? It's a lot of fun.

That winrate is unsustainable, even if the pool is the softer ever...
Probably a mix of bad players and good run made your winrate so huge.

What's your sample size? I guess not that big.

Have a great new year btw :)

Yes, of course. Just posted to highlight how soft the pool is right now, (as an indication of what's possible.) My win rate over 20,000 hands is much lower, around 18bb/100, but, I understand that even that sample size is too small to draw any conclusions. My only point was just that there is a lot of bad play out there right now which can be taken advantage of. Happy New Year to you, as well!
