Considering that his VPIP is 5, and 3b is 0 over 60 hands, I have a hard time seeing him shoving without the nuts here or trips here. So I'm thinking QTs if he decided to play loose randomly on the BB, but I doubt it. I think 99 is possible. so I'm going to go with 99. He also could have QdJd, which seems to fit the betting pattern here and his stats. If he has QdJd, that gives you the better hand but gives him possible gutshot and flush draw. He could also have slowplayed AA preflop.

So possible range: more likely: AA, 99, QdJd less likely: QTs or KQs.
I would fold here, mainly because his stats say "nit" and his all-in from oop deserves respect.

Totally agree with folding the turn shove given his stats. What do you think of the flop action?

I have just recently picked this back up after taking an extended break from playing online due to things in my life taking priority. I really didn't get much of a start on this after starting this thread, maybe only playing a few thousand hands basically breaking even before I stopped.

No, I have not lost my roll, haha. I will post a little update here in a while.

I think he had you beat on the flop after his check re-raise. I think you were right to c-bet 2/3 the pot, but after his large re-raise, I would have folded right there... only because of his stats. If he was a donk, I would have called.

Soo, had a rollercoaster day today. I played two sessions today, the first for a total of 526 hands and a loss of -$8.06. Mainly due to getting KK all in preflop versus AA for a loss of ~$6, then I think the rest me tilting slightly and not playing optimally. I quickly got control and quit the session however before losing too much.

Later on I jumped back on and played 484 more hands and turned the earlier red number into black resulting in +$16.50 for the session.

So today started out going in the wrong direction but I ended up turning it into a decent profit. My total hands played today was 1010 for a profit of +$8.44 which brings my total bankroll up to $30.54.

Been awhile since I updated this so I might as well now. Played 7827 hands since the last update, the majority were winning sessions. I am up +$24.14 in those sessions which brings my total bankroll up to $55.70.

I have recently started getting rakeback through Carbon so it should help some.

So, total stats so far are:

10975 hands played
+$43.62
Beating 4NL at 4.97 BB/100 hands

Great job J Slice. Keep hitting that grind. You might want to play some mtt's to help your bankroll. How did you get rakeback through carbon? through the VIP points?

Thanks, I appreciate it.

Yeah, I used to play a lot of MTTs with varied results. I really don't like the high variance of playing MTTs, but I have been buying into them with VIP points, min cashing a few times.

To get rakeback through Carbon I just sent an email to their customer support asking them if I could receive it. They claimed they would reply within 24 hours with their automated reply but it didn't happen. It took more like a week or so before they replied saying they would review my account, then within a day or two they said I was enrolled in their rakeback program.

I receive %35 rakeback each day via their contributed rake method. I guess I will earn VIP points at a slower pace, and not be able to exchange them for cash, but at this point its a trade off im willing to accept.
