How to SMASH Soft Poker Games 

Games are bad? Have you played online lately? The games are GOOD.

I agree with feaster, I can’t speak on the CPS but I do have a carrot corner subscription and I’m no crusher but I am beating the cash games on ACR for 4.5 bb’s/100 and that’s pre rakeback over the last 100,000 hands which I believe is a pretty decent win rate these days and I have Pete to thank for a majority of that win rate. He has improved my game tremendously and I would bet my bankroll the CPS is worth its weight in gold and will likely be purchasing it myself as I move up through the stakes in due time.

I can't speak for how good or bad online is. I recently moved in order to play live poker and however good or bad online is it's impossible that it's softer/easier to beat than live where it's easy to make 5-10x BB/hr. That said, I think anyone who buys the CPS and expects it to work miracles on its own is expecting too much. Just like actual school how much you get out of it is going to be proportional to how much time/effort you put in. If you buy the course and then watch each episode once and do nothing else you're not going to get much out of it. However, if you buy the course, watch each episode multiple times, take notes, do the homework, work with a solver yourself, practice the concepts on GTO+/PIO/GTOW, etc. it will absolutely make you a better player as you're learning poker from the ground up. The thing is that to learn anything from the ground up requires drilling it consistently and consciously until it gets deep into your unconscious, and there's no magic bullet to getting there beyond time and effort. The course can be an excellent guide to getting there, but it can't be the be-all, end-all on its own, and it can't be a replacement for your own efforts.

I would say that - and this is not a troll answer (though saying that sounds like trolling...) - your question tells me that you would be well served just to watch his free RU-vid content or cash injection for now. The variance of poker makes it impossible to answer your question with any certainty or accuracy. It would also greatly depend on your volume, stakes, and bankroll. These are concepts that the RU-vid content will instill + a whole lot more poker knowledge.

@@xGETxREKTx I'm talking about GG, Stars, the Euro sites, not ACR. ACR is a money factory, from everything I've heard.

A lot of 'redline' can be gained by folding early. You lose a lot of non-showdown by calling then folding later in the hand. So as such, it can simply be working on things like checkraise or folding from OOP with certain hand classes that is often overlooked greatly. Most people think its all about barreling. Its also about defending better from the blinds.

In games like this it will be hard to have a positive red line. You might win like 1 bb / 100 in red line, but look what they are calling down with... You really just want your red line to stay as close to flat as possible, you really have to over fold in a lot of spots.

Weazel is that you?

Big bets= big bluffs

@@arturosauceda3758 in the “balanced” GTO sense, yes. But not in these pools.

Why is the vip16 a stain?
