I used to play poker a lot irl and online for real money. I played on torn a little bit in the past too. I haven't played in about a year and decided to play again this past week. Below are my charts from torn.report. The BB charts are the most relevant because they normalizes the stakes. However, I've also included the money charts too.

I've played far from perfectly, and I'm sure there's someone who's done better than me. But since most people are statistically losing players, I think my winnings are pretty good. I'm probably going to stop playing poker though because it takes up too much of my time, and I used to be addicted in real life. However, feel free to ask me anything.

Instead of solid players I should’ve said TAGs whose range would normally consist of TT+ AQ+. But you’re blocking AA, QQ, and AQ. You would have trouble getting value from JJ and TT or you might have fun on a board like J T 8. LAGs like Doug Polk would definitely be showing up with more trash like small suited connectors

It’s definitely one of the softest games I’ve ever played and there’s no rake. But I honestly don’t know how it plays at the higher stakes

This is normally the answer I get which is technically correct. Generally it’s a fold preflop against solid players where everyone has a normal stack size of 100BB-200BB because you’re likely behind KK or AK. But there are situations where it’s ok to see a flop or even get it all in preflop like if the effective stack is short or it’s a multiway. Inexperienced players normally would never consider folding though

Partly because I was happy with my results after a week, but I scrolled through the poker forum and saw someone posted similar a couple weeks ago. However I don't know his BB/100, and without playing at the same table as him, it's hard to say if who's more profitable or a better player. But I want to believe skill level increases with stakes. It'd be interesting to see if skill starts to decline at the high stake games like it does in real life where it ends up being more businessmen than poker players.

The other reason I posted is because I feel like I'm an advanced player, and since I don't have the desire to play any more, I can offer any insight into the game. The question I normally ask poker players when gauging their skill level for the first time is what do you do with AQs when facing a 3 bet preflop?

I don't want to give too much unsolicited advice, but stuff like using the chatbox to talk about poker (which I've been guilty of) will generally work against you. Good players can pick apart other players just by how they talk about hands. Something as subtle as knowing the difference between a set and trips can categorize you into a certain experience level. Another dead giveaway is how people are betting or reacting to bets. You should always think of bets as percentages or fractions of the pot and stack sizes instead of absolute numbers like 10BB. However, the field is so small that all the regulars probably already know how each other plays
