Playing 94 suited/63o from the small blind loses us money long term. Forget the run outs they don't matter.
With the flopped 2pr hand with 63, you bet 1bb on the flop 3 way. Is this a good sizing?
Regarding getting your money in good, if you only ever get your money in good then you are not bluffing/semi bluffing enough.
The trouble is you don't post hands and ask how you could play them better. You post hands to prove you are getting unlucky so its a waste of everyone's time.
btw he wasn't bluffing
Just another quick look at the hand says he could have had a flush post flop or at worst a flush draw and decided to risk the flush hitting (something I do as a semi bluff at that point and tend to regret it..), 2 other cards which he could have hit a set with....don't forget, in poker terms/experience, I don't know what I'm talking about
I've just looked at all of your hands and yes..it's a conspiracy..
Sky have rigged their RNG, set up their whole IT dept to automate a system which tabulates, kicks autobots into action against your name when you play...
It even has an automated dealer to shuffle the card they need to beat you off the bottom of the pack when you can't see them
I can see the head of IT chuckling now as he resets it to how much pain he wants to inflict on you this week.....
EVERY hand you have posted, EVERY hand has probably happened to me( and probably everyone else) and I've probably done that, won in the exact same scenarios to other people
So really, apart from answering Matt's pertinent question above...Why play on Sky? Why put yourself through this angst
I'm not a very good player but I enjoy playing on this platform compared to others as the people and the banter is fun, occasionally meeting up at SPT's is a bonus
That's why I play.....If I win a little every now and then to cover my outlays, great and yes, I sit there at times and say htf did they a) call, b) hit...
In all probability I should win but hey I don't..but then again sometimes I do
I don't play on other sites for different reasons...you need to find your own reasons other than the random hands that work/don't work and work out for staying on the site...or go fishing
I genuinely wish you luck at the tables, because at some point what has happened to you is exactly that..luck
What software do you use to work out your %s? Do you type in all the hands and boards for every hand you’re unlucky in? Seems like a bit of a time drag to me.
Unlucky with the AA hand where you min bet the turn 300 into 3900 on a paired and 3-suited board then call off the 2x pot shove. Guess you were about 4% there?
