TheCinciKid 0 Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 I think I've identified a major leak in my SH game. Obviously it's a carry over from having played mostly full-ring up til a couple of months ago. I'm getting killed in the BB. Through 6600 hands of 3/6 6-max....Folded BB to steal - 60%VP$IP from BB - 19.70BB won per hand - (.26)Obviously I need to be playing more and defending more out of the BB and could probably improve my winrate out of it by doing so. I guess my question would be, what kinds of hands should I be calling with and what kinds of hands should I be folding. Often I just feel lost when I call a raise out of the BB, then find myself OOP with a hand that's hit nothing on the flop, then sometimes I'll try to bluff my way out of it and I end up losing more. I'd certainly love a chart that says what hands I should be playing and what I shouldn't that's what got me started in full-ring and I really think it could help me here.

CobaltBlue 662 Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 One of the biggest factors is what kind of opponent you're playing against. Your range and actions are obviously going to change a lot based on their looseness/tightness and aggressiveness/passivity in addition to their betting patterns. Link to post Share on other sites
