Welcome to my personal blog for CoinPoker! After playing and placing In-The-Money in the most recent NLH One Million Freebuy tournament, I wanted to prepare a special series about aggressiveness in poker. As such, we are taking a momentary break from the blogs about best openings in Open Face Chinese Poker in order to go back to the roots of No Limit Hold’em play. Aggressiveness In Poker (Adjustment Factor). Shuffle up and deal!
Aggressiveness is a good thing but there is a “but”… 506s61
As we saw last week in the first part about your level of play.
Here are other points to keep in mind in order to know how aggressive you should be:
Did you know that adjustment is the key?
Are you in a “Bully the bully” situation?
Do you show signs of lack of aggressiveness?
that the game keeps changing!
Let’s cover this week the adjustment factor and why this is important to consider with regards to aggressiveness. 2p4t2x
Poker games are never alike. Depending on whether you play low limits, in a full ring format (9 players), 4-max, 6-max, Sit n’ Gos, a two-days tournament structure or on the contrary a “hyper-turbo” tournament, if you play cash game, or anything else…
All these parameters should influence the way you play and the level of aggression you should use. If you are in 6-handed game for example, you MUST open up your game, have a much wider open range of hands, and in some ways be more aggressive than if you were sitting at a 9-handed table.
Opening up your range comes less in a form of aggression than in the form of a necessity in these types of games, but it is still a usage of aggressiveness. 6g354o
Let’s say you’re at a very ive table where no one is doing any 3-bets, everybody is very neat and playing like in 1998, then you’d better play aggro so you can take advantage of this general iveness to win pots easily.
On the opposite, if you find yourself at a table with crazy players who play 90% of their hands and make 4-bets more often than you breathe, you will have to adjust your game because aggression in this case will serve no other purpose than to going all-in very quickly and put your fate and your tournament in the hands of the “God of Variance”.
This is actually a common saying in poker: In order to be a winning player, you should adjust and play the opposite style of your table!
That being said, there will also be cases where you should engage against bully players and where it would not be optimal to adopt a ive or a low-ball style of play. Let’s learn more on that in the next blog post!
