I'd eat the trees.

Would you start with the leaves, then branches, then trunk? Its sort of a tough question because the trunk must be made out of something hard to support all the yummy candy branches and gumdrop leaves or whatever, so it might be more like a "lick the trunk until you make a dent" type of play. I think climbing up and then pulling down random branches would definitely be the line I would take.

The superior line is licking a hole into the sweet tree trunk and then pleasuring yourself with it.

You live in a weird place.

Any place that's not EST is weird.

And that drilling a hole into the tree line is definetly -EV.

I used to find 38%-40% players seeing the flop regularly a few months ago without too much of a struggle. Now, to find a mid 30% table is a major problem.

35% games are good games

Anyone playing 2/4 late last night? It was weird as anything. Can't even describe it. Played 1h 45m - +0 exactly. It seemed like everyone was being loose and nuts (but not maniacal) in any hand that I didn't play, then when I raised I would get like one caller, who would c/f the flop. Odd.

I played some 2/4 last night and yes it was like .50/1 weird. It really is weird how loose 2/4 is in comparison to 1/2.

If player has VP of 60, and a postflop aggression of 1.0, he is labelled loose passive. But for someone who plays 60% of his hands, an aggression of 1.0 is actually normal aggression (he probably bets the same number of hands as a tight player with an aggression of 3). I've reduced my dependence on these tools, focusing more an real reads (such as common lines, tendencies).

Here's an exercise for you PT-GT users: Try playing your next session with only VP$P and PFR displayed. And don't refer to any other stats during play. Do this for 1 week and let us know how it turns out. You will thank me later.

Chris heard:

Gee, AF takes a long time to converge... make sure you don't base decisions on it prematurely. Maybe you should view number of hands along with AF so you have the complete picture.

Good point.

To me, that is a loose game.

I haven't actually played the 1/2 in a while. But on .5/1 I usually sit down at a table with 3 other people, and then it fills up with an OK amoung of loose people who want to play now, and don't like waiting lists. I would guess the same logic applies at 1/2

Yeah, that pretty much sums everything up.

btw, if you only eat the branches, the tree can keep growing. Messing with the trunk will probably cause it to die, and you'll run out of candy goodness. That's fine with me though, I'll be chilling with Gloppy in the Chocolate Swamp.

Anyone else notice it's virtually impossible to find a loose $1-$2 table at PP anymore?

The best I can find is mid 30s seeing the flop.

[/ QUOTE ]

Please tell me your secret of finding such good tables.

I don't know, I just started at 1/2, and have 3k hands. I'm running well, and have a BB/100 of 6.4 (yes I know that won't last), but if the tables are a touch tighter than .5/1, the players are no better. I see lOTS of bad players. All you need is 2 loose players, and the table seems profitable...

I wish I had moved up months ago.

Maybe it was better months ago, but it seems very beatible right now.

Regards,
Francis
