Thankfully back down in double digits again. I would summarize my play of late as being pure nit, pure value. I'm basically playing a few kinds of hands:
* AAxx - If I can get enough all in pre-flop to be pot committed then I'm going with it.
* High pocket pairs for sets as in jacks or better. Looking only for huge ROI here by limping in and folding if raised more than a min pre-flop and folding on the flop if I miss.
* Nut flush draws with some helpful side cards.
* Perfect rundowns.
I'm folding anything else and I want to see as cheap a flop as possible so I'm only willing to pay the minimum. Since I'm short stacking I think it is a mistake to call a raise at the short buy in tables because I'm not getting enough implied when I do hit.
The results speak for themselves. In the last session I was up $2.08 and only lost one hand over 10 cents and that was a crying call on my part hoping that my aces were good on an ugly board. Other than that I won all contested showdowns, being 2:1 or better in five of the six and a little shy of neutral equity in a three way all in. Think I'm going to ride this train until I can get my number down to zero.

Nice work, I would be interested if your strategy will work once you move up in stakes. I think your strategy will lead well to massive multi tabling as your decisions are relatively easy.
ReplyDeleteOn a side note I just went positive EV before rakeback on PLO, so now the only game I officially suck at according to holdem manager is Texas Hold'em.
