my live results total are barely shy of a smooth 100k, so, idk if that's really wasting my time.

hard to tell from selection bias of hand posting but seems like youre running bad. that said, youve definitely butchered a lot of pretty common spots and it looks like you have a very very long way to go. its your blog so definitely do you and whine all you want, just probably dont expect a ton of constructive criticism

should i be losing 50% of the time with my two pairs? im literally so fucking tired of losing with fucking two pair

like one person is literally either sucking out on me every time i have two pair, or he's coolering me every time i have two pair. i have only lost my two pair against him.
and my three of a kind is at 65%, is that normal?

it seems like there's certain people that just call down so much more against me and have a far more than expected hit rate of pair or better
they snap fucking call and im 20% of the time hitting a pair on the flop against them. shouldn't it be about 33%?

this person bluffs against me about 4-1 times. i mean, i shouldn't have double barreled, being that he called me on the flop, but still, sometimes, he's going to be on a draw there.

i hit my pair, which is why i should've folded on the river. not for any other reason. i was looking for the pair, and i got it, and it's not what i wanted.

i figured this guy would have AT+, KQs, QQ+. should i call if im breaking even on both calls? it would seem like the times i do win would allow me to gain extra value from future hands for having a stack bigger than 100bbs?

too many hands to go through them all. Some are coolers but you are definitely playing a lot of these hands like dog shit and your mentality doesn't seem cut out for this game. I'd suggest you look into learning some blackjack, baccarat and craps seems more suited for your personality.

well, if you've gone through ones you think are played shittily, do you mind expanding on that? please?

same guy as the last however many hands
first hand against him tonight
i actually almost folded pre. something about the sizing. im nto sure if this is a good spot to triple deke? is that even a viable thing anymore? i figured with the turn bet he's going to have AQ at the most.
he raises 15% from utg

You wanted to fold pre based on sizing so you assume he can only have AA. But you cap him at TPTK on turn as if he'd never check AA on flop but would check AQ. K

you're always shoving two pair for any non-pockets. it's GTO for at least 3 months.

Considering his sizing tells, he's certainly stronger than his normal UTG range. I put him on AQs+, KK+. I don't think I should actually be 3betting him pre with this range. I figured he'd raise me on the flop, considering that i would get AQ in there myself, if he had KK or AA. I also figure by the turn he's losing too much value to be calling with an overpair that he would raise an overpair. He's aggressive and I'm not sure if I've seen him slowplay anything. ergo, I cap him at tptk. does this make sense?

i think two of the hands I posted were non pocket 2p that were shoved? but nice thoughts, very helpful.
