Some nice wins there, but the stats I am really interested in are your PT type stats. VP$IP, Preflop raise percentage, Aggression factor. If you don't have PT you can download the beta for free right now and import your old HHs.
Oh and if you had added the hand ranking caveat earlier it would have been a different thread.

seems some over looked the last thing i put in, here it is again Violate this basic strategy if either you hold "exceptionl cards" OR need to "Make A Stand as short stack" another thing i use is the last hand option on full tilt you can look back to see what suits and cards have hit in the last 7-8 hands if i have over cards that havent been hitting then im in sounds silly but it has been working for me.a little add about starting hands. I hope I am able to contribute by this. Here goes.

If you were playing against yourself, you wouldn't be ery profitable from the sb-- you would always limp in and get raised...

This is a really limited iew on opening ranges, position, table selection and opponents. You will get easily picked off eventually playing this style. If you stick to this over a prolonged period I would imagine your stats to be in the range of maniac proportions, 70/50, 60/40 or the like. If you playing 6 max cash you can afford to be more liberal and aggressive with your hand selection, but even then stats of 25/20 would be deemed to be fairly laggy.
You still have to have some criteria for hand selection, even opening from late position. Again this is soooo dependent on opponents, to stick to your theory religiously just would not prove EV+ in the long run.

FundelMental, I really would be interested to see your stats using these guidelines (if you have them and want to share). Just curious and I promise I won't bash you because of it. I know I can be asshole (my wife tells me everyday) but I really think you need to take a lot more into account than you lay out in your basic strategy (your opponents, your table image, and yes even your cards).

I am not convinced that ALL POKER AUTHORS are not mainly in it to get us lemmings to follow a predictable strategy so they can rip us apart. The completely unknown beginner has probably always scared the living daylights out of most successful players. Think of them as wild horses, or wild kids. Until you've given them some foundation, and hopefully a particular foundation they are more trouble than its worth to bother to feed them.
We can't know of course, but I imagine that shortly after Doyle's Super System became available was probably his most profitable period. He finally could predict what his illains had at a much higher rate. Shortly after that tho might have been his least profitable period whereas those who had digested it could then manipulate it.

Original post was short and sweet, but way too ague, as someone else pointed out. This might have been solved by a simple assumption that your cards are such and such and then the chart. Looking thru the chart I can see a few hands that might work, but so many more that won't. This favors the bluff chart notion a bit, except your idea about calling many limpers after a move.
Is there a range of hands you play or is this the bluff chart? WV wasn't being overly terse in his initial replies, he was being realistic.
As part of a more diligent discussion, entailing specific hands/reads/situations, the chart may be useful, but as a stand alone item, it is as useful as saying the sky is blue.

fundelmental ur strategy is fundamentaly flawed
u say to call just with position with no cards{and calling 10% of stack as well}
i dont mind the bigblind play with raising if sb just limps but calling 3-4bb raise with any 2 in that spot is ludacris { like my spelling }
again i could see u raising unopened pot on button with any 2 cards but calling there with just position and 10% of stack and like 2 limpers infront is just not +e
this strategy just isnt going to be a consistent winner for anybody

Lol, wtf kind of a strategy is that topic creator? Fold all hands if you're in early or middle position? Call a preflop raiser on the button before looking at your cards? You're strategy seems to take only position into account and not take your actual cards into account. Other factors matter but so do your actual cards. A ery strong preflop strategy is the one Dan Harrington talks about in Harrington on Hold'em V1. I follow that strategy early in tournaments and it works well, I rarely play a pot where I'm dominated going to the flop. The only thing I do that Dan doesn't recommend is calling a preflop raise with AQ (he says to fold it) and raising a few limpers with an AQ os, I guess Dan just doesn't like AQ.

Does your strategy change as you get reads on the players at the table? These seem to be a little bit ague.
For instance if you are UTG with 88's at a limpy/passive table wouldn't you want to call an... | | Read Entire Entry |

Horrible. You're basically saying to do these things with any 2? If so you'll quickly be below 30+BB. If used in a cash game you'll be reloading soon. If in a tourney you'll be on the rail.
