I went from a 30/25/10 LAG to just ABC TAG. I don't
👄 bluff, hardly ever cbet unless it's for value or I have a monster draw, and play
incredibly predictably. I would 👄 get eaten alive by thinking players, but it took me 6
months to realize that the players at 25NL don't 👄 think. I limp low pps from EP to
setmine and get paid off 100% if villains hit top pair, I 👄 limp/rr AA UTG in FR games
and they still stack off with QQ or AK , I donk then triple 👄 barrel monsters and still
get paid off by TPGK, I have a 5% 3betting range from the blinds but people 👄 think I'm
always 3betting light and stack off with 99+ in BVB or blind vs BTN. I really do play
👄 25NL like I play live 1/2 and it's working because dumbass regs keep leveling
themselves into thinking I'm bluffing them 👄 all the time.
I used to be just like them
TBH. I used to get into these 3bet/4bet shoving wars preflop 👄 and double float people
with air to take it down on the river and triple barrel A high and make 👄 other horribly
spewy plays because I thought I needed to play like durrrr to beat 25NL. Turns out you
don't 👄 need to be afraid of the villains at 25NL; they're all morons who read a post
about 3betting and now 👄 think they have to 3bet KQ from the BTN everytime, but they
missed the article about polarizing your 3betting range 👄 against TAGs and nits. Just
play ABC poker and you'll crush them.
