I feel like im getting a lot better. I have played a tour de force of hands this past week a la Lukie. I've been 4 to 6 tabling and playing for 10-12 hours each day (about 50k hands in the last 10 days). Im basically breaking even, but im learning a lot. Im doing a TON of experimentation with my game. Im experimenting with different styles: i've played anywhere from 16/12 nit to 26/22 lag, with some fun and enlightening results.
One part of my game that was severely lacking was threebetting. I sucked at picking spots to threebet, and i sucked at dealing with threebets against me.
One thing i read that extremely helped me out was CTS's blog entry on Cardrunners about three and fourbetting. He suggests a style where you threebet decent players with crap hands on a random (and inexcessive) basis, and then manipulate the pot with position after the flop. One problem with my game before was that I was only threebetting people light from the blinds (as a defense mechanism). I found that its clearly better to do it on the button and don't worry so much about having your blinds stolen. TAG's don't like to play reraised pots out of position, so they will often fourbet or fold, which means massive EV for you (unless they start 4betting you light, at which you just shift gears and wait for AA lol).
He also suggests fourbet pushing a wider range against people who overuse the above tactic against you. Basically, if LAG villain three bets you with a wide range X, then you can profitably shove 4bet (assuming 100bb stacks) a fairly wide range Y, which usually consists of QQ+ AK and AXs TT-JJ. The idea is that a suited ace actually plays fairly well against a sane calling range (30% equity vs QQ+ AK), and since they rarely have that range you take down a 14bb pot most of the time, and they can't call you too lightly because you are shoving your monsters too.
I had a fairly successfull 4k hand session last night (6 tabling on stars). What follows is most of the big pots I played.
LOL my new threebetting strategy puts people on monkeytilt.

Ugh. I was yelling obscenities at the monitor when he checked behind and this was the turn. I know I'm supposed to bet the flop, but I knew I was drawing basically dead, or he was drawing to 4-6 outs, was this not a good value check? I was thinking that QQ made up a good portion of his range, and that I would squeeze some more money out of it on the turn. As played, should I just check and give up on the turn?

Ugh. I was yelling obscenities at the monitor when he checked behind and this was the turn. I know I'm supposed to bet the flop, but I knew I was drawing basically dead, or he was drawing to 4-6 outs, was this not a good value check? I was thinking that QQ made up a good portion of his range, and that I would squeeze some more money out of it on the turn. As played, should I just check and give up on the turn?
