Guerrilla Poker Training - The Value of Table Selection 

Very true, and this can often start "the circle of death" where players start doubting themselves and actually playing worse to get out of the downswing.

There’s a hud you can buy for ignition/Bovada.

if fastfold game drop all borderline hands scrap breakeven opens call 3bets etc if truly annoymous and fast fold, but do all the breakeven bluffs yourself and just scrap the breakeven hero calls least majority. if just annonymous and reg play less tables and watch opponents frequencies actions betting patterns sizes and whats showing down from what position vs what action

1/3 not worth playing

live casinos nah, people play blackjack lose, roulette lose, most sport bet lose the games will run just only the house will win. people like to play poker people know that. rake cuts into edge massively though the house is greedy, pokers not a skill game mean is marketed and sort of true but can you really get edge big enough to pay the fees per hour you pay to house just for playing on top??? eh. table selections fine need bleeders or rake the games less brutally of pokerplayers band together dont be cheating scumbags and set up private home games. other ways introduce mix game tables so when dealer button passes dealer game changes then recs regs whoever get introduce to new games have to play them say omaha (more swings variance, bigger potential edges though) irish poker 5card omaha crazy pineapple omaha hi lo etc etc or add another blind or ante, make holdem pot limit even (no limit holdem is brutal on recreational players or losers as edge someone skilled can gain on someone terrible is pretty fucking big, the no limit nature of it actually makes it so easier to bully and abuse people in that way and milk them). if people cared about the poker ecosystem then new games should be introduced, rake should be less of a factor in constructing strategy make it a player vs player house doesnt have to be so greedy take so much off the table per hour from everyones stack, i personally prefer short handed games more hands per hour more action less people to pay attention focus on but thats me but even for recreationals probably makes it more fun so 5-6handed is better than some fat 9handed nit fest not even nit fest but just pace of play everything urgh slow boring main reason wont bother tournaments i get bored the the tanking and pace of play online or live. online poker needs table caps 3 for holdem and 2 for omaha as would fix the reg / rec or winner/breakeven/loser ratio somewhat and on top it would speed up game play less people tanking to fold or decisions cause play too many tables slow the games down, if your not using a hud too i really dont think you can honestly play more than 2 omaha tables or 2-3 texas tables very well miss too much action patterns etc but yh that would help online. ontop what help online is same rake less, ban huds completely and tracking software actually, create multicolur colour coding system bi - tri i dont know and have note pad but get rid of huds and tracking software it ruins game quality massively and also the dynamics gameflow, naturally tightens the game up turns some losers into breakeven, makes mass multitabling possible easier so if theres rakeback incentives get breakeven losers grinding fuck load for rakeback not enjoyable for recs or winners as its a dead spot thats likely nitting around not really playing just tryna not lose rake enough to get a reward. poker runs no matter what people like to play it gamblers love to gamble still (though there more drawn to omaha for obvious reasons more fun deeptables stacks etc) people like poker hell my introduction was zynga poker lol thats how i got into it then later as was already playing blackjack roulette sports betting i then i decided fuck it lets dabble. oh another way to save or help the poker ecosystem is get rid of the rake machine that is zoom poker that shit kills the whole gameflow table dynamics everything makes fish nittier regs nittier winners nittier and tighter in all seats its a rake machine poker sites love, recreationals though get gobbled up bled away quick!!!! partly cause everyone mad fucking tight in those games even short handed theres tight opens tight 3bets tight 4bets stackoffs pre, only spot people arent tight is postflop its typical lets least river cally cally hero call light but beyond its tight range vs tight range everywhere really (and kinda neccessary cause of rake) yet no gameflow no back and forth dynmanics can be built made really and betting patterns frequencies spotting etc just its not poker really. poker sites love it generates them loads of dosh. thats my view opinion on it. least for cash games. have to table select if wanna actually make money in poker if know rake or rake was such a factor then sure id agree no table select but rake is such a factor takes so much off the table per 100hands from everyones stack effects profitability of hands bluffs hero calls etc so much its not funny ha, just yh nah table selection is a must in raked game or your just gambling playing slots roulette blackjack otherwise, you need to target the rec at get at their money before others do or the house gets all of it and their bled away maybe they run hot, more likely live as pace play so slow and longer get table dynamics back forth going if fullring game not shorthanded but, as said holdem as poker game nolimit holdem is brutal on bad poker players both in shortish term and long term, promoting spreading a game where is either got more volatility or closer equity wise is probably good longterm as winners still win smaller edges but more consistent and fish keep coming back rather than feeling destroyed so long as rake is reasonable and edge mathematically that can be gained is worth it after rake then spreading games other than no limit holdem makes sense good for poker eco system. as fish get milked quick in holdem especially online but even live, like omaha swings quite alot potentially edges are partly bigger yh cause people bad but also cause tables stacks get deep including fish more often than fish getting that deep in holdem more like a fish just get bled away in the end loses everything that session and there whereas omaha he might run up be up 2-6buyins just through good run maybe winning a deep pot behind etc it just doesnt happen in holdem as regularly that scenario it does fairly in omaha, and it the limit the closer equities drive more action pre too more multiway pots even shorthanded and yh its a more recreational friendly poker format and game attracts different crowd, even reg winning omaha players seem personality wise kinda different to reg winning holdem.
