Default Re: I fall for the Triple

[ QUOTE ]

I think this is why I struggle with the 10/20 game sometimes, I need to improve my ability to determine when players are shifting gears against me, because even the losers in the game have an arsenal of tricky moves.

Indeed. Hand reading is critical at 10/20. Additionally, I find it's been very helpful to ask myself the simple question "what does my opponent want me to do by doing 'X' "

Where X is:
-donkbetting the turn
-checkraising me 3 streets in a row

etc.

I call more when I think he wants me to fold, and fold more when I think he wants me to call. This usually works well, especially when we take into consideration recent hands against these semi-thinking LAGs.
