This is something that I talk about all the time on this blog as you might know. <br /><br />I rarely ever think about blockers and how to use them preflop or postflop and I have had a lot of success at the micros.

That is, making the right play and losing. It seems counter-intuitive and just wrong in every way. <br /><br />But of course it is all about the long run in this game and in order to keep the bad players coming back time and BlackRain79https://www.blogger.com/profile/13583442498190608166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503203097950401361.post-30477536180049275342016-09-09T16:45:12.972+07:002016-09-09T16:45:12.972+07:00Hi Nathan, Thanks for offering all these insights ...Hi Nathan, Thanks for offering all these insights on your blog. I purchased the training video's and the book combo. Very insightful. Also procured PT4. <br /><br />So I am playing for a while now, like a couple of 1000 hands. Nothing shocking. What I learned mostly is the fact not to tilt and being convinced in the way you played the hand even though you get beat time a few times in a row byDeathmetal-euphoriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16075797165897256939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503203097950401361.post-91542893060193609602016-09-08T19:04:31.693+07:002016-09-08T19:04:31.693+07:00Thanks, glad you liked it!

I'm anxious to try it out. 2 questions, please: My HUD doesn't start until I start playing, so I have to wait for awhile before enough hands are played to be significant. Are other HUDs able to give you info without having to play? Americas Cardroom shows H/hr for each table; does this figure help for choosing a table? If so, how?Mrgeneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15604507408308858193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503203097950401361.post-26615259969140972822016-09-07T14:30:55.342+07:002016-09-07T14:30:55.342+07:00Thanks Kutay.

I always get a bit confused with all those ..bb/100 hands since when variance comes into play all figures get somewhat distorted... or what the heck - straightened up! Ha-ha! It's the good play itself that matters and you are a good player, Nathan. More important though - you are kind and generous enough to share your knowledge with other people. Keep going and be happy!

It took me months and a lot of buy-ins to realize they're not bluffing as much as I thought.<br /><br />So make it simple, be calm and keep the long run always on your mind.
