    It is equal for all players, agreed, Some are able to adapt to the enhanced hands, others play rigidly to 'correct play' and get bitten.

    Enhanced hands are equal for all, though poorer players will always benefit from that over a good player.

    TIP: The hands you posted seemed to heavily involve all ins, miles ahead, but unfortunately with a card, or disasterously, with 2 cards to come. Avoid this where you can and the results will improve. Or you can carry on for another 14yrs being extremely disappointed with the long odds turnarounds!

    So you would advocate folding to an all in where we have a good idea that we are way ahead. that seems very -EV to me.

    It is the norm to avoid allins even with dealt pocket pair unless your chippy. !

    You cant fold to an all in, but you can attempt to control the pot and not push all in yourself... as ive said the dominated ace situation online is particulary a bad one, which ive mentioned many times. I do this in the freeroll, as its the only way to play the freeroll.... but every night i eventually go out to the same story.... Hence my many requests to be able to bet on an obvious 6% river

    Hi Mark,

    Good to see you are running a little better & going along nicely.

    How's the training & weight loss going, or is that a separate thread? I'm on catch up & I've not read everything yet.

    Hi Tikay,

    Welcome back.

    It's all going well thanks. Just under 4 weeks out now and definately at the sharp end. In fact an update will be on the Trek 13 thread either tonight or tomorrow in the Rail.

    Excellent news, ride that variance train Mark.

    Been a while folks.

    The bankroll currently sits at £70 thanks to some cashes, mainly in the £2.20 £400 bounty hunter, although a nice £40 pot in a 10/20 cash game helped.

    Should comfortably avoid reloading again before Chrimbo and just going to keep grinding away.

    I really can't understand why I seem to be able to get bounties and a regular cash in the £400 but the minute I sit at any of the mini mains I can't ever seem to win a hand. It's the same game, same players for the most part and I really don't play any differently, or is the skill set better at £5.50 than £2.20.

    Meh, whatever, it's all fun innit.
