    are these session PT stats bonkers; 3/6 NL 6-max..

    My VPIP is 40, PF raise is 33, Attempt to steal blinds 55% - table is extremely passive and effectively playing with their cards face up. Already up a buy-in without a showdown :eek:

    (usual is early 20s VPIP, 10-ish PFR)

    is this just ludicrous or standard fare when running over a table? I've won 25 of 60 hands played so far

    had a session like that on pokerroom.com last night.

    Everyone was giving me 110% respect on my bluffs.

    It was crazy. Managed to finish the session up $400. There were very few showdowns. Noone seems to be willing to hold onto their cards.

    how did it turn out?

    got up to $1740 at one stage but ran KK into AA on a AKx flop vs the only other decent player at the table to finish with about $1200. Was a lot of fun 'playing out of character'!! Almost had to force myself to maintain this extreme level of aggressiveness, the thing that really spooked me was that none of the other players adjusted their play...

    on a side note the standard of play at 3/6 is sometimes as bad as .25/50, two appalling (Irish) players on my table last night.

    Example: I have A4 in the BB, two limpers and SB completes.
    Board ends up 44KQT and one of the appalling Irish players end up all-in vs me (won't bore you with details) for his stack of 275 or so. He is calling lumpy bets all the way with......A9

    which led to an interesting moral dilemna which I may blog about later!!

    edit: that's funny. I just reread this and realised that I have characterised myself as a 'decent player'! LMAO!!

    On a passive six handed last night was running at around 40/25. Been on this table 3 times in 3 days and double my buy in each time in about an hour. very enjoyable i might say!! (and i'm not even good - lol)

    I've now advanced to 'sub-average'

    linky to the blog in my sig

    what would you have done poker pro - interested in your line here?

    to me this was the equivalent of finding a drunk lying in the street with a wad of bills lying beside him

    I would have hoped he kept reloading and I kept raking it in. Him doing his brains is not my problem. My problem is making sure he does his brains in my direction.

    I can completely understand your angle

    Poker player with a conscience?? Never! played a few cash games with drunken idiots like this, you feel guilty after a while. If only morals paid the bills (if you dont take it someone else is going to). however, i do agree with your point.

    Bet he's back there tonight !!
