Use a HUD!!!!

This is how my hud looks like:

With  abbreviations to show

EP Preflop Raise - Early position raise preflop
MP Preflop Raise - Middle position raise preflop
CO steal - When someone raises from the CO when the pot is unopened

You can change the stats abbreviations to what you want.

If this ist the first time using a hud this can be a little bit tricky to understand but start of slow. I´ll go through the most important stats to get you started:

Vpip - if the vpip % is high they are entering a lot of pots, through limping or raising. Guys with a really high vpip call them down light and remember toppair is enough.

All the third row stats raise/steal stats is another very imported stat that you use all the time.
Example we are on the bb with 10bb and sb pushes all in with 10bb, what is our calling range here? Without the third row we would have to make a default call with a default range, but lucky for us we got our hud on and it tells us that the sb steals 40% we then proceed to look at our callchart and see that we can call with 15%. It is like cheating using the hud but hey it´s allowed!

If something is unclear write a comment  and I´ll try to answer it!

Important programs

Tableninja


A necessity when multitabling, it got hotkeys that you can program that will make you fold with a simple click of a button, it autoclicks the timebank for you. It even autoregister for you and get rid of all the pesky pop ups!


Holdemmanager


Tracks your opponentes tendencies, if there is a spot that you are uncertain of if you should call or fold, you just check their stats in your hud. Nothing more to say really but a must have! There are similiar programs out there if you think its to expensive,


SngWizard and Pokerstove


Good programs to fiddel around in and learn about handranges and equity. If you want to move up in stakes and learn more you should take a look at these.

Cbet the flop

What to think about before cbetting!
1) Own hand
Stronger hands - bet bigger
Weaker hands - bet smaller

2) Board texture
Board drawy - bet bigger
Less drawy - bet smaller

3) Opponent
High fold to cbet - bet
Calls cbet alot - bet with good hands otherwise check, or cbet and follow up with a turnbarrel. Because a lot of your opponents are callingstations so a flop bet will not do it but if you follow up with at turn bet, they will let you know if they got something.


Make it simple people still won´t pick up on what you are doing!
Opponent tendencies if Fcb is high cbet more.
If its checked around on the flop and we are in position cbet 100%
When we cbet we are not trying get our opponent to fold big hands, just nothing hands. For example on a A T 6 flop your opponents 88 have now become a "nothing hand" We are not and I´ll repeat not trying to make them fold a Ax hand  just 22-99, 78, 89, K8, K9, KQ etc you will notice fast if they are able to fold. If not take a note and only valuebet them.
Just keep it simple and don´t spew to much postflop, if you are unsure on your postflop play. We will still crush them with the help of our Pushchart.

Wet flops 2 connecting cards and a flushcard etc
* Bet good draws
* Pairs
* Make sure we got a piece of the flop if we cbet.

Cbet the flop:
There are diffrent kinds of flops obvious...for example.

1)   A 2 2,  K 2 2       cbet close to 100%
We dont need to make a big bet around 1/2 pot cause the flop is so dry.

2)   K 9 2,  K 8 2         cbet close to 90%
We dont need to make a big bet around 1/2 pot cause the flop is so dry.
The flops above are hard to hit so cbet alot.


Some examples:
1) A T Q   cbet 100% cause its dry
2) A 5 A   cbet 100% cause its dry
3) K 8 2   cbet 100% cause flops is completely disconnected
4) T 2 4   cbet 100% cause flops is completely disconnected
5) A 9 4   cbet 100% cause flops is completely disconnected
6) K 8 3   cbet 100% cause flops is completely disconnected
7) A 9 8   cbet 80% one high card and two connected lower cards
8) A K 6   cbet 100% two high cards connected and one low card
K Q 6   more check behind
J T 6   more check behind
Q J 6   more check behind
Why check more on the later flops? Because both low cards and high cards can connect more versus the first one.


9) 4s Ts Q    don´t cbet check behind, two middlish cards with a flushdraw

10) 7s 2s 5    cbet 100%, because here all high cards combinations miss.

11) Q 7s 6s    don´t cbet, unless we got a A or K in our hand because if our oppnent calls we still got some cards to hit.

12) T 9 6,    don´t cbet, becuse no 5x, 6x, 7x, 8x, 9x, Tx, hand will fold. J7, J8, J9, JT, KJ, KQ, K8 will not fold.

Basics

One of the fundamnetal thing to know about sngs is that you should play tight, tight really tight no loose calls early in a sngs cause you want to save your chips, the chips you lose are more valuable then the chips you manage to win.You want to save as much chips to be able to make people fold when we are closing in on the bubble.


But as the blinds increase you need to be more aggressive and start playing more hands preferable pushing all in alot! And stealing blinds...
No one wants to be the bubbleboy! Thats why we have to know what to do when the bubble occurs! You need to know what is wrong and what is right! A lot of your profit comes from here, knowing when to go all in and knowing when to fold!
