Yes, I did it in 5 days!! in PartyPoker! But in NL100 I only Play SSS. My 180$ last hands come from 50$ (with triple ups). For M3Turbo: I din't raised PF cause I'm out of position and the player that limp the hand never fold to a raise PF, so was a waste of $ (they are to loose to fold a hand without flop) PartyPoker = GoldMine

"I din't raised PF cause I'm out of position and the player that limp the end never fold to a raise PF, so was a waste of $"
Your $ I'm guessing. That is exactly the reason to raise preflop. If the limper never folds to a raise, then charge them max for the flop. If the SB never folds either, well you have some fish here. Still raise preflop, 97s may call, would be very loose for JTo to call. Bet the flop, JT is not going away, but find it hard to believe 97s would call here. Without improving, I can see a straightforward check fold on the next streets.

that's exactly what you want to do, isolate the callstation and play heads up against him

We are not only raising good hands to win PF but also to build pot incase we hit. It sounds weird you don't want to raise because you know opponent will call with worse.....in my eyes that is what poker is about.
"With AKo i never put AllIn Preflop in cashgame"
I don't agree, simple example:
If your opponent 3bet shoves 13% you got 60% equity with AKo against his range and you already got money in the pot so a fold would be a leak in your game imo.

I totally agree.
It's too nit doesn't raise PF. You're lossing money doing that. Don't think only in this particular hand, think what move has the best positive EV.
I agree, raise preflop with AK everytime. I wouldn't change it up even if they were calling stations. Because now the other players at the table are seeing that u aren't going to play good hands strong and they will stay in to beat u with drawing hands for cheap. Don't focus on the calling stations but the rest of the table as well. They will see the callers get lucky from time to time, which happens it's poker, but they will know you are still playing good starting hands strong. The last thing u want is people to start calling the blinds with a lesser hand because we all know the more people in the pot the more the chance of someone flopping a better hand than u.

How do u get value of ur good hands if u don't even raise AK in the BB, read every strategy book thats on the market and all will say raise AK in the BB. Own mistake
