Help Reviewing my 5/10 Shorthanded Game
I just ventured up to the 5/10 shorthanded games on party and started out fairly well in my first week of play by making a modest gain in my 300 bb bankroll. In the last 2 days I have dropped about 50bb, but am still in the profits for about 5000 hands of play. I have made drastic changes to my play to help overcome the agrresiveness of the players. It is like slaying a whole new dragon when moving to 3/6 full to 5/10 shorthanded. So what I have decided to do tonight is to play anywhere from 100-200 hands and post every hand where I either put money in the pot, or maybe could have played the hand but decided to fold. I am just looking for feedback on my 5/10 play, and deciding wether I am a winning player at this limit or not.
Check back in an hour or two and I will convert all of my hands and post them in this thread along with my stats for the session. Any input before or after my session is appreciated! [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] |

Break it up into small chunks, preferably with similar situations grouped together. That'll make it easier to discuss.

Re: Help Reviewing my 5/10 Shorthanded Game
Thanks for your input. I think the way I am going to do it is that I will put all of the questionable preflop hands in a batch, my big pocket pairs/ ak or aq together, and all my other postflop play together.
Also I think I might leave the results out of the hand so paople won't be swayed by if I won the pot or not. Im working on the session right now so I will have them up shortly. |

Re: Help Reviewing my 5/10 Shorthanded Game
Smaller chunks man. No one's going to bother analyzing 30-40 different preflop situations. I'd search the forums for preflop play; its been pretty much covered to death. Post some complete hands (and not every single hand where you saw the flop!).

Re: Help Reviewing my 5/10 Shorthanded Game
Althoguh you can loosen up sh, don't over do it, especially when you are just getting your feet wet at 1) the 5-10 limit and 2) shorthanded play. Play like you would in LP in a 3-6 game and its not to bad to err on the side of avoiding marginal spots (but don't play weak tight, just don't play stuff that you won't feel comfortable playing aggresisvely postflop like Kxo). Bt doing stuff like open-limping K9o up front is bad.
"37% flop seen". This is a bit high, especially when you don't have much of a feel for the game. As I mentioned, avoid marginal spots and play a little tight to get used to things, then loosen up as you ease into the game and become more comfortable. Preflop: Hero is UTG with 8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Hero calls, MP calls, CO folds, Button folds, SB folds, BB checks. I dislike open limping and would prefer to raise or fold Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) Preflop: Hero is CO with 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. UTG calls, MP folds, Hero raises, Button calls, SB folds, BB folds, UTG calls. I don't care for this raise. Make it suited and offer some info on utg, the button and the blinds and we can talk Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) Preflop: Hero is MP with 9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. UTG folds, Hero calls, CO calls, Button calls, SB raises, BB calls, Hero calls, CO calls, Button calls.

Re: Help Reviewing my 5/10 Shorthanded Game
i found 7 that you played where i would muck, especially when just starting out. they are:
A8clubs UTG Q5o in SB A8o...you raised after limper, i muck K9o in MP K5o in SB 45clubs in SB...you only had one preflop caller. almost forgot...i don't defend w/T7o otherwise, looks like you made good decisions. cheers! |

Re: Help Reviewing my 5/10 Shorthanded Game
Thanks you for the input. This is exactly what I was looking for. I will post some of my postflop hands once I have more time on my hands to convert them and post them here.
