6 max or fullring? I like to add JTs-89s, maybe cut down on suited Ax.
50zoom 6max
I saw a lot of ppls open 17-20% from UTG . how profitable it is ? depends on skill ?
Yep skill dependent.
I think that nl50 zoom is tough enough that you cantget away with opening only 10% without being exploited on certain flops (that you will almost never hit).
Increasing rfi to 15% and adding hands that improve your board coverage seems prudent/smart, you dont have to go as wide as 20(which I think is too wide)
Found one guy , have 3k hands on him , maybe upswing but not sure . he have 33bb/100 for 3khands. but the weird thing he have 43 WWSF LOL
Also another guy who won for 4k hands . ands wwfs 52 . saw him on 200 zoom and 100 too .
The top guy is probably playing a higher variance style so it is probably just a good run of a small sample size. lol But its not a bad strategy if he can get away with it. He is playing a ton of hands in position (CO/Btn) and playing them as the PFR. Not much flatting.
The second guys opening frequencies seem to be more on par with what a lot of regs are doing from what I've seen.
I think you can play any suited Ace in 6max but at a tough table you probably can't play 55 profitably. 66 is really close as well and should probably be folded at a tough table.
You can definately play JTs QTs and KTs because they flop decent toppairs and you flop a draw from time to time or maybe a backdoordraw.
For offsuited you can definately add ATo AJo and KJo. People found out that ATo is profitable open and AJo definately is. KJo is tricky but playable I think. The fear of playing KJo is that you flop a toppair and someone else has something better but because most people 3bet QQ+,AKs,AKo vs UTG they can only get a better Toppair with AJo,AJs,KQs because KQo u can't really flat vs UTG profitably.
Most of the time if you flop toppair with KJ u are good and can valubet the Flop at least.

lel, who?
u can then make same reasoning for QJo and JTo
QJo is Worse than KJo because it gets dominated by JJ, AJo, AQo, AJs, AQs, KJs, KQs while KJo only gets dominated by JJ,AJo,AJs,KQs
:o
Like others have said, all suited broadways are an open. AJ and probably AT are opens. KJ is close. I've seen good mid/high stakes players open KJ/QJ/JT offsuit. But that also has to do with their skill level and they are using smaller opening sizes. With a 3x open and rake being higher those hands become hard to profit/breakeven.
I like having suited connectors down to 87/76 for board coverage. You don't have to open them with 100% frequency but its good to have so you don't get exploited on 7/8/9 high boards.
I open all suited aces. Only adds 2.4 VPIP or 1.2 VPIP if you're already opening the baby suited aces. Also helps with board coverage.
22-66 are not profitable in most games. When you don't flop a set they become hard to play out of position. It becomes a guessing game when you start bluffing. And when you do flop a set you're not getting stacks in as frequently as before. Players are getting better.
cumming, lol , do u rly? XD
