Help w/ Calculations please .... Playing $.25/$.50 Fixed Hold'em, over the first 10,800 hands I played I managed to win 230BB w/ Std dev BB = 13.33 and a win rate of 2.12BB/100 over the last 3,900 hands I've played I've managed to lose 200BB w Std dev BB = 13.01 and a win rate of -5.18BB/100 I'm new to limit hold'em and am just trying to get an understanding so I don't freak out when i drop $100. Is this a standard type of downswing. My overall win rate is at 0.29/BB over 14,400 hands. It is my understanding that I with this Std dev BB I should experience swings of 45BB.

Limit Holdem - Bad Streaks??? Recently I decided to grind out micro limit cash games. I use a fairly similar strategy to the one present in "Small Stakes Hold'em" which has been profitable for me in the past. I've logged about 11,000 hands @ $.25/$.50 and managed to make 2BB/100, having success I decided to test the waters at the $.50/$1 limit and have gotten hammered. Over 4000 hands and I'm averaging -3BB/100 hands. I noticed that players are better at folding on the turn/river, but some of the beats I've been taking are ridiculously similar to the ones that happen at the $.25/$.50 level, yet ...

$11 MTT's compared to Micro's? I've been playing Micro tournaments for some time, recently moved up to $11MTT's, $3Rebuys. Is there a major change to overall tournament strategy. Should I consider folding QQ's preflop or should I still be calling off most of the time...' You just can't make this fold in micro's, was wondering if anyone would consider folding here.....'

Re:Question Regarding BR Management Yes .. its 8% of $26 Posted in: Poker Discussion	valbizuresjr81 Jan 30th, 2010
Re:(Cash players) Whats your cashout strategy? Jennifear has a good thread .. basically you need to find out your win rate $/hr. (a conservative one)<- she stresses this You then cash out 1/2 of that for every hour you play. ie.) Lets say you've established a conservative hourly rate of $5/hr. You play for 8 hours. You would cash out $20. Posted in: Poker Discussion	valbizuresjr81 Jan 29th, 2010
Re:Multi Tableing and Bankroll Management? Thanks for your response. I had just found your thread when you posted .. I had one final question. In terms of determining your HR win rate. What sample size do you think is enough to get an idea' Currently I have 7600 at the .25/.50 limit level and make about $4.50/hr should I go to 10,000 hands. And can these numbers be used when moving up limits or should I simply wait until I have enough of a sample size at the new limit in order to determine my new HR win rate' Posted in: Poker Discussion	valbizuresjr81 Jan 29th, 2010
Re:Multi Tableing and Bankroll Management? appreciate the reply and information. And I agree that this is a good way to calculate a BR in terms of BB. And if you look at numbers provided I use 550 which is a conservative approach. My question is how should these numbers be altered while multi-tabling .. Or better yet, how do people alter these numbers when they multi table' Since you have a larger % of your BR in play when you multi-table do you increase the # of BB's you have in your BR' And by how much' Posted in: Poker Discussion	valbizuresjr81 Jan 29th, 2010
Re:Multi Tableing and Bankroll Management? I'm assuming ABI is average buy ins ... that means that @ a $.50/$1 Limit Table. Where the ABI is $20 you would need a $6000 BR. That seems a bit high, no' Note: I'm talking Limit cash games... and NL MTT's Posted in: Poker Discussion	valbizuresjr81 Jan 29th, 2010
Multi Tableing and Bankroll Management? My current BR strategy is a combination of what was posted by Fox and Jennifear. 550 Big Bets - Limit 200 Buy ins - MTT's w/ cash outs paid for volume... My question is in regards to having a certain % of your BR in play. Lets say you only want to have at most 10% of your BR @ play. If you buy $20/table at the $.50/$1 limit and 4 table you will have $80 in play. This would mean you should have $800 in your BR. But the bankroll guidelines only require you to have $550. So is my reasoning correct here... Should I boost my BR conditions' What is a reasonable/recommendable % to have in ... Posted in: Poker Discussion	valbizuresjr81 Jan 29th, 2010
Re:What's the fair percentage in a one time backing arrangement? Depends on weather or not there is make up .. Standard is 70/30 with no make up. 60/40 with make up. Since its your dad .. I would go 60/40 no make up 50/50 make up Make up means your return the 100 and split the rest at the % above Posted in: Poker Discussion	valbizuresjr81 Jan 20th, 2010

Re:Worth a Squeeze? That's what I was thinking ... re-raise/fold ... When would a squeeze be more applicable' Stack size wise' Posted in: Poker Discussion	valbizuresjr81 Nov 5th, 2009
Re:Worth a Squeeze? Appreciate the advice but I really feel calling is the worst of my options. I only have 2600 and have to call 400. Thats 1/6th of my stack. even if I double up my implied odds are just horrible. Unless I stack them both w/ a set and I just don't see that happening. So Many over cards to come, that will just shrink my hand. Posted in: Poker Discussion	valbizuresjr81 Nov 5th, 2009

Worth a Squeeze? I noticed the 4x raise from early position and put him on two over cards. AJo type hands. Looking to protect but afraid to play a flop. I figured w/ 950 in the pot representing about 1/3 of my stack and 26bb in my stack representing 1/4 or the original raisers stack and half of the callers I could get hands to fold her or be in a race at best. Unless of course he's waking up w/ 99+ here. Again I lost the hand but my question is ... is my thinking/play correct. Or did I try this to early in the tournament. It just feels like a flat call is out of the question and a fold seems to week. I ... Posted in: Poker Discussion	valbizuresjr81 Nov 5th, 2009

Fold to this check raise?? Had an M of 11, about 30 BBs. After my raise and his call there is 2465. After his check and my bet there is 4365.

Re:is this an easy fold?? Here's the thing ... You may be right 100% of the time here and put him on a hand like AK, AQ. But my experience w/ JJ-QQ here is that you're either only slightly ahead or dominated. You still have a long tournament to go. You still have 40x BB and about an M of 15. I think you sigh and fold here .. Wait until you get a better read or a better spot. Posted in: Poker Discussion	valbizuresjr81 Oct 29th, 2009

AQo overplayed ? I had been playing fairly tight. Did a re-steal 2 orbits ago. My M is 6.5 and get AQo best hand I've seen in a while.

Re:Help with what I hope is an interesting hand. Low limit MTT I think you have to make that call on the river. Kh'h makes a call for a raise there.. Maybe KQ of hearts, KJ not possible .. KThearts .. umm maybe I guess ... Maybe two low suited hearts... I think you have to pay this off and move on to the next tournament if they floped it.
