Default Re: Tight Play and Long Streaks

For example, last evening I sat for ~150 hands at Party. I played about 20 total. I hit a playable flop about 4 times.

Wild guess is that you may be playing a bit too tight post-flop, but you need to post a few hands to be sure.

Example would be you call 2 limpers in MP with AJo. Only the C/O and blinds call. 6 see the flop which comes T-8-3 rainbow, checked to you, you check and the button bets, blinds fold, and one caller back to you. Are you normally folding in this situation? If so, this is a bit weak-tight. Not only do you have 6 overcard outs, but the pot is offering 8-1 on the call and you may well have the best hand more than 11% of the time as it is.

Again, this scenario is just a wild guess, but if you're playing so tight up front that you're seeing 13% of the flops (20/150), I can't conceive that you wouldn't be able to see the turn for at least one small bet on 3/4 of them.
