Party 1/2 beginner help
Hi-I'm just starting out at 1/2 sh at party. prior to this i've been a 2BB/100 winner at the party 2/4 fr game usually 8-tabling. i 5 or 6 table the new 1/2 sh tables. I'm a little concerned about my new winrate here (.7BB/100) especially given the atrocious quality of most of the competition. This is over a run of 6000 hands and is somewhat demoralizing. If anyone could tell me if my pokertracker stats look ok i'd appreciate it:
VPIP-21.95 Fold SB to steal-55.68 Fold BB to steal-49.51 Att. to steal-27.72 W$WSF%-31.8 Went to SD%-29.18 Won$at SD%-57.14 PFR-11.14 Should I maybe go to showdown more? I've been taking some horrendous bad beats and basically been getting 2-paired to death this entire time. thanks for any replies! |
Re: Party 1/2 beginner help
u can play more hands and raise more PF. U also need to see more SDs especially given ur VPIP. u can steal more.
But the biggest thing i would recommend is stop 6 tabling. Seriously, focus on getting better and moving up. U can't think enough 6 tabling. |
Re: Party 1/2 beginner help
thanks for the help. my bankroll really isn't big enough to where i'd feel comfortable playing 3/6 sh since i continually make withdrawals for help with the bills each month. and i feel like you can pretty much put it on autopilot here
however, looking at the party 3/6 sh tables, they do look quite juicy. are the players there about as bad as at 1/2? |
Re: Party 1/2 beginner help
i haven't played much 1/2 in a long time, but 3/6 players are pretty poor for the most part. Even the TAGs do retarded stuff (myself of course included, otherwise i wouldn't still be playing mostly here). Table selection is semi-important though, but not critical. You just have to test waters yourself.

by the way carolina grad here, noticed you went to wake [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] what would you say a respectable winrate at is, both at the 1/2 and 3/6 party sh levels? the search function here doesn't go back far enough

Re: Party 1/2 beginner help
11 PFR is way too low. You need to raise at least 16% when the table is 6-handed. You're folding too much post flop too. Also playing 6 tables when your are not confident in your skills is not a good idea.

one more thing-my flop aggression factor is 5.67. i feel as though this might be high, but i can't seem to stop continuation betting, and it is so common in these games to have two broadways and whiff the flop with another two fish in, frequently one of them behind you. any advice on this situation?

Re: Party 1/2 beginner help
pm'ed back 2 7. thanks for the advice leader i'll work on that
let me be more specific. let's say i have AK and am going up against the BB and the flop comes 2 6 7 or something and he bets out. how can i call that if i don't have pot odds since the pot's like $5. that seems to be such a common situation here. i'm almost always raising of folding here. is that wrong? |
