No the same strategies won't work, fish will call your bluffs too often, you'll give the regs too much credit in their thought process, causing you you hand read badly.

I would say the main thing to learn at lower limits is how to play against fish, cause that still applies at 1knl.

Well K1ian said most of what needed to be said, the only thing i would add is I think you are thinking too much about balancing your range at this stake level.

Thanks for the answer, could you tell me what you think the most effective ways of studying are?

Yeah I read in a thread somewhere that donking paired turns was popular at high stakes for that reason at the moment. I think I like that strategy most.

If you're going to donk the river, I would make it a 1.5x overbet and also do it with 88 , 99 as I don't think they have enough showdown value on this river. If he's tight as you say this should work a decent amount of the time.

Yeah nice answer, I'll put this... but still tempted by fisherman!

/thread

Hmm, tempting but not sure if I'd get away with it haha!

Yeah you can't shove that at all, all your hands have now gotten there.. I would be check folding this at 10nl vs unknown.

Hmm to bets that large... doesn't look like he will fold, unless I had hands on reg and they were nitty, would probably just fold.

I probably forgot some combos, but I counted about 30 value combos and maybe 35 bluff combos. You could probably make some balanced range for bluffing all in.

Victor, how did you work out that value:bluff ratio?

The first TP hand I would check would be KT because of the straight blockers, then I might add in QT or JT depending on how many combos were needed. Obv better to check back the JdTo for the flush blocker.

Would bet the A9, and something like J9 for protection and to try get to river for free. checking all the other 9x. 

Check the 4xdd, with some weak showdown seems like the best draw to check, would probably be chucking in some a2/3/5dd to get some more combos in. Would be betting the overs / flush draw like to build the pot with so many potential outs. 

Would bet AJ w/ backdoors and maybe bet AdKo then check rest AK.

How does that sound?

Q9 is too loose at 5nl because the rake is too high. Presumably reg is folding A high on this board so  cbet seems fine, just check back turn. 

You're basically raising just for information here, which is bad. You probably have the best hand here, when he clicks back the turn he thinks he will push abc regs off weak holdings, but he's not really repping anything himself. 

Just call and probably CF river if you don't hit anything, people at this level don't tend to stab twice, unless you have reads on him.

Yes this is more specific to 10nl than to rush. Not folding at 200nl, but then that's a faraway fantasy land that I've never been to, where I would actually get to play proper poker :P

I used to do this, and my problem with it is you run into so many people (particularly in ZOOM) that you just end up losing buyins that could have been avoided, then taking notes on people you may never see again.

I'm sure all the regs will flame me and call me retarded but I would just fold OTT or OTR, when people do this at rush it means they have a disguised strong hand like a set or straight, and they think you can have lots of TPs/ two pair hands that won't be able to fold, so they donk pot to try and inflate quickly. 

Could we check raise the flop?

It's used for close spots where you don't have HH on someone.

I just feel the approach he is making is too theory based and not exploitative. The guy has a 5% 3 bet which is too low, we exploit this by becoming exploitable and just chucking the AQs against him. Unless of course we think he will fold AK to a 4 bet, or give up easily postflop.

I know he didn't that's why I said they are 3/4 bet bluffing hands.

4:50, why not increase your 4 bet range by adding in weaker suited aces? a2-a8

Could you explain your sizing of the continuation bets? I've seen you cbet 80% pot on a drawy flop with 150bb effective and then 80% on a board with no draws with 50bb effective.
