ZOOM IN TIGHT

admin

November 16th, , Hand 1 is unfortunate - check-calling or check-folding the river may have been better idk. Difficult because, like you say, at 2nl you can get value from weak aces here. I would have probably bet less on the flop, which would somewhat control the rate at which the pot grows and make it easier to get out later if raised.

Hand 2 - Well played, he would probably have 4bet higher pairs pre and since he's a shortie he's probably a fish so overpair will mostly be fine here. Hand 3 - Well played, it's a cooler nothing you can do Hand 4 - With bb effective stacks pretty much don't ever call 4bets unless you are prepared to go all the way postflop.

This is the hand you really need to think about imo.

Hand 4 - With bb effective stacks pretty much don't ever call 4bets unless you are prepared to go all the way postflop. About hand 1- Big value betting with 2pair plus is great but sometimes it's better to pot control with TPTK, especially vs reggy type villains. You need to assess the villain and table dynamics no table dynamic with zoom though then decide whether to fold or shove. Calling 4bets is fine as long as you GII postflop.

Ah, no I didn't mean that you should shove the flop, just that you should be looking to get it all in at some point. I would probably check the flop then shove over his bet, you can get value from AK this way. If he doesn't bet then bet any turn. Hand 1 is good, checking at any point would be bad, bet turn bigger though like.

Folding QQ in hand 4 to the 4bet is fine, if hes a fish or an aggressive reg then you can 4bet shove or 4bet and call it off. Definitely folding is the best play vs passive players and most tight regs though. The advice here is good, but I want to add one general remark.

You're most certainly playing too tight. You're also playing too loose. Poker is a game of specific situations which is why it's good you're posting hands. Learning when to play loose against bad players, in position when stealing, ect.

Try not to think about poker in such big general ways. Instead, get more specific. Try to find leaks like "am I stealing too infrequently? Those will be far more instructive than looking at some HEM stat and making a broad generalization about your play. November 16th, , 4: Hand 3 - Set: November 16th, , 5: Some really great advice here.

Thanks Acky and Arjonius. Originally Posted by c9h13no3. November 16th, , 6: Now you've really confused me! No - I do understand what you're saying but find it hard to get an accurate read on the situation in Zoom with so few hands on opponents. I will try to fine-tune my thinking in the way you suggest. It may take me some time though November 18th, , 6: Overall your original stats looked pretty solid for a micro stakes full ring game.

The main thing with starting hands and raising vs. A lot of people think you should have a smaller gap between your raise and limp stats, and that you should always be isolating limpers when you enter behind. At times that is right, but if you are playing speculative hands vs players who will let you in cheap, and pay you off; limping is the correct play. It gives you great implied odds , and helps keep your stack from draining away. Your newer tighter stats are great in theory, but in the micros it is easier to win stacks with speculative hands. If you can fold early and often with non premium hands like 67s; see the flop.

It is also important to remember that people like to call, so raising calling stations with 88 is a losing play. They will call you three streets with trash that was never really that far behind and river a better hand. Personally I think the uber tight strategy many people like is better for limit and for absolute beginners.

Jul 30, Messages: Picked up a lens from Amazon and when I mounted it on my Xt1, I though maybe there was a lock to prevent zoom creep. Can't find a switch anywhere and assume there is no manual focus lock like the 14mm.

    It almost took two hands to rotate the focus ring. I'll need to return it unless someone else has had the same experience and can comment on its solution. Otherwise, its getting packed up and returned. Markoe , Apr 18, Mar 21, Messages: That does not sound right. My focus ring is super-smooth, with a silky feeling like it is hydraulically damped. Activatedfx , Apr 18, Jan 11, Messages: My fit on my XF is a smooth perfect fit That's a real bummer to have this happen. Keep us posted on your results. I will monition my lens on this issue. MIGpilot , Apr 18, Mar 26, Messages: The zoom ring on mine is very stiff, but yours sounds worse.

    There do seem to be considerable sample variations. AnthonyM , Apr 18, I know how you feel I had to return a MM lens after my first outing with my new XE1 and mm. Which I got resolved with no Hassel. With an extended 3 year warranty. The only cost to me, was in personal time to resolve this problem Mar 16, Messages: Edward Lim , Apr 18, Sep 3, Messages: I've had two copies and thought the first one was too tight so I returned it. The second one was the same, so I decided this must just be how it is.

    It seems like it's a bit easier now that's had some use.
