I'm trying to get off to a good start so am going to make another blog post. It's nice to know some people are reading so I'll try and keep it interesting if I can.

I've played about 1k hands since the last blog, so haven't kept up with the volume goal but I've been playing fairly well and hitting the gym so I'm going to cut myself some slack with that.

When I'm not playing I don't switch off and have been thinking about my leaks and I came across this thread on 2+2

It basically talks about saving bets to increase your win rate. Not barreling that bad turn card, not calling the river when all you beat is a bluff as they are rarely bluffing etc. It really struck a cord with me as I feel that personally, calling for 'pot odds' when they are really just not bluffing very often is a bad leak of mine.

Two hands came up earlier in my session which I feel sort of exemplify my point

This is more than likely a fold vs this guy. His stats were 51/20 over 100 hands and folded the flop 38% of time. My plan was to c/c turn but I'm really not sure if that is even good. When he pots the river I wanted to fold but couldn't, I'm really not sure if I should be folding here but I honestly feel that I get showed better hands almost always.

Now here is another hand vs a 45/34 who folds to 3bets 33% of the time. I'm not sure if I should be cbetting here, prob not (?). It goes c/c c/c and then he pots the river. I folded in this case but again, I'm not sure if I should be as his range is very wide.

It feels like I am calling and folding in the wrong spots but I may be wrong, not even sure how much spots like this effect the win rate to be honest but mine isn't great so I'm thinking it must!
