Am I a piss weak mofo!?!?

[SuuPRlim]

shoving a range of 22+ A2s+ A8o+ K4s+ KTo+ Q7s+ QTo+ J8s+ JTo T8s+ 98s 87s here with this stack

Why this range?

because these hands are good hands to steal the blinds and antes with since they will have decent equity when called? maybe can be tighter on the suited kings and queens but apart from that it'd be my default

Why shove the topend of your range, surely raise call is better?

for balance

no need to balance against pigeons you will play 100 hands a year with. You only need to balance here if you have already built up history with the opponents, wherby they have seen you in this spot shove weak and raise/call the top-end which we probably don't have.

gotta remember as well that even if you have the history with an opponent who is capable of exploiting your unbalance here, the conbinatronic liklihood of him ACTUALLY being able to exploit you is quite small in live poker where the spot will crop up only 4-5times MAXIMUM, so the vacuum profit you get from playing an exploitable PF strategy vs the weaker players really does justify it imo.

I would always go with an exploitative vacuum play > any GTO plays in live poker cos that's how you win one specific tourney on one specific day, not that i'd know this ofc but I think I've seen flushy do it

oh right yeh thought u were disputing the bottom of the range. KJss isn't strong enough for min raise/call here though imo. i want to win the blinds and antes first and foremost with this shallow a stack.

yh agreed, knocking you for $300 is too much and greatly against the code of ethical grimming, $12 is fine I can sleep happily with that

that post sounds like Rob Yong trying to tell me (after sucking out with AT<A5 aip in our HU sng) that my AT was a bad call because although mathematically it's correct, we were only playing that match once so I should've waited for a better hand.

THE LONG RUN DOESN'T MATTER IF ITS JUST ONE HAND LDO

Sigh i am so out of my depth. I don't even understand some of the words in that sentence.
