Add in every suited ace, 78s-T9s, and that would be a solid 6max utg opening range

I think that's a fine 10 max utg opening range, nitty af otherwise tho


thanks

thinking about adding in 7-8S and T-9S, i'll probably add those back in

but Ace-suited hands suck so much

if i miss the flush draw (89% of the time), my best case scenario is top pair weak kicker. this puts me in a super uncomfortable scenario, where i'm not sure where i stand and i'm out of position most of the time

had a hand last night where i opened with ATs, got reraised 3.5x and had to call (got good pot odds since someone else called). i hit the ace but was worried the guy had AA or AK. Did a lot of check/calling until i realized the guy had Kings, bet the river and he folded. But if he bet more than half pot or shoved at any point I probably would have folded

I do play ATs and A9s on the button if there's been some folds. I'm not a fan of AXs when the X is a small card, hoping to make the straight. The Ace to 5 straight is the most frustrating one in existence. The royal straight is also frustrating, because to make those 2 straights you really need those 5 exact cards to land, so you're always relying on inside draws or gut shots which have a low chance. At least with the royal straight with AJ+, you have 2 good chances to hit top pair

You dont wait for an apology... you move on wtf. And talking to other girls while waiting to see if she is going to apologize isnt moving on. If someone wastes your time(the time I took to come out to the venue), and doesnt even have the nerve to get back to you, I dont care about taking the high road to come back. I wont take the low road and disrespect them back either but Im putting 0 effort after that point unless its a serious emergency.

Ive been flaked on the day of, which is a different story. I respond to that differently but 1 hour before the date to full on flaking no call, no text, gets no play from me. I dont want the girl to be some back up plan for me either or whatever. Im only engaging if it comes straight to me. Im putting my effort somewhere else.

No offense to you but I lose major interest after that. I like to date on my terms or 50/50 the least. Shes not doing that to a guy shes really into/respects. You following up and breaking that 50/50 plane only lowers your appeal imo


again, i'm 100% fine with that stance...but just reading your post it reeks of ego. not saying insane or unreasonable ego, but ego nonetheless. i don't even think in terms of "disrespect" any more. i honestly don't care. i care so little i don't care if i send that text or not. no matter what happens, it will not affect the way i think of myself or my self worth.

sometimes i send that text and forget i ever sent it. had a date where this exact scenario happened, i sent that text got no reply, then completely forgot about it. ran into her working at banana republic about a year later. we started talking and flirting in person. and after, i texted her and she apologized profusely and we ended up going out and she bought me dinner...and made it up to me in other ways

it's called the high road for a reason, you don't only take it when it's convenient. now i understand that may be a more advanced road of thinking and if new it may be better just to cut it off

No u is more into the chase than the finish.


i'm more about running the correct, +ev, game. i leave feelings and emotions out of it (for the most part) and do what is more likely to get me results in the long term

jeffhardyb0yz posted...

The chase is lame if you have keep getting disrespected to actually get the girl. No thanks.


again, there you go with that word "disrespect". who cares? i'm 100% worth respect, but if a girl doesn't realize that, does it make me any less worthy of respect if i throw her a bone and give her a second chance? that's your ego talking, it really doesn't change anything either way. imo if anything it makes me a better person if im more willing to forgive.

MrResetti posted...
Oh no.
She texted me back and wants to come over and I'm drunk -_-


that kinda helps my point, if you (and everyone else) had a more healthy mind set with these things, things would work out much better for you in the long run

i'm not telling you guys to bend over backwards for her, i'm saying not to take it too personally either way (being overly offended like the TC or bitterly distancing to the extreme like jeff)

There's no way you can just get rid of your ego and just not care about what anyone thinks of you without some sort of training. And I don't want it.


anything worth doing doesn't come easy

it's the same with girls.

1st girl you cold approach is scary af. 1,000th girl you could approach you don't even think about

1st time you get flaked on hurts. 100th time you get flaked on you don't even remember

1st supermodel you bang is a big deal. 10th super model you bang it's just another saturday

MrResetti posted...

I texted her at midnight last night and got nothing which is why I even made this topic. I waited til one o'clock to send an innocuous text about something else thinking maybe she missed it. I got no reply to either.


midnight is too late, you're not giving her a wide range enough of time to respond

she might already be asleep. if she's awake and sees it an hour later...now it's 1 am and it's an uncomfortable time to respond. try around 12-3pm

you actually hurt yourself because you forced yourself into an uncomfortable double text scenario. you have to double text, but it hurts your value to do so

this is why "game" is actually very important, you gotta understand these minutiae. yeah things probably changed a ton since your separation

Absolutely fucking not do not send her any text. She flaked on you, no call no text. Absolute disrespect to you and your time. You should not reach out to her in the slightest. If it was an accident, it is on her to apologize and make something happen and shes gotta do extra for wasting your time. Ive been no showed no called twice on tinder, both times I didnt send any follow up. If someone does that, I just next them. One girl never followed up and the other girl reached out and said she forgot and asked to meet up in the city. I said nah, I dont feel like going out, you come over and well watch a movie. She came over and I had to do zero work. Do not go out trying to do 50/50 with anyone that flakes on you at the last second or stands you up. They have to put in the extra work.

Dont ever listen to anyone who tells you to reach out to someone who flaked or stood you up. Its downright pathetic.


I am totally okay with this stance.

Thing is...i feel like it's still somewhat attached to ego, "she OWES ME an apology"

While she kinda does...

Once you've completely detached from ego and have obtained 100% inner confidence...getting flaked on is such a small deal I dont mind a text to take the higher road

I sometimes mix in a text like "hey, sorry we must have gotten our wires crossed tonight, tends to happen on full moons! Maybe another time"

I swap out the full moon for whatever bullshit excuse-big holidays, etc

The reason I send this text: its extremely difficult for girls to admit they're wrong and apologize. By taking the higher road and making it MUCH easier on her by making an excuse for her, she's much more likely to respond and come back around

When I wait for an apology, I may have gotten it once

When I send a text like above, about 20% of girls end up replying and going out with me

So its a +ev move, just gotta have no ego to pull it off

You can't exactly prove your point either. Unless you have a literature source behind your methodology?


Again, that's the thing about correlation, you can't prove a negative. You literally can't prove a negative, which is why I'm saying you shouldn't provide advice without being able to prove the positive. That is exactly what specious reasoning is...you have no clue if the reason the girls didn't flake are because of that text

For the record, that text is something I have tested myself as its an interesting theory. I tried it 5 times and girls flaked 3/5. I had to really sit down and dissect the sub communication of the text to determine if it was worth sending still...it isnt

My findings are not based off scientific literature lmao. It comes from reading the findings of other dating coaches, and then applying it to my own experiences and verifying what is and isn't true, then refining the findings

Theres no degrees or certifications for dating, just in depth and massive experience. I undoubtedly have that, and imo if you dont you should refrain from giving what could be harmful advice

You would be amazed how terrible the advice I see on this board is. I've seen some self proclaimed chads say you should still wait 3 days to call a girl. I've seen guys who married the first girl that would talk to them think they were players because they got married and think the one thing they tried one time that worked make them experts

Point being, it's not being insecure when you want to make a point. You can either choose to protect your ego or avoid getting flaked on. You guys over complicate the simplest things way too much. Just communicate your wants in a playful, respectful way.


Don't think those 2 are the proper choices in this scenario

@MrResetti you are treating getting flaked on as too big of a deal. Learn to not attach your ego to how others, especially girls think of you. Especially especially people that don't know you

Learn to realize that if she's that much of a dunce, she's the one missing out

Given that it has always worked, I will stick with what works over a dating coaches advice. No offense.


This is exactly what I mean. You can't prove a negative. To take it to the extreme, thats like saying to a girl "you're not one of those serial killer girls thats gonna kill me?" And being happy that no girl has ever killed you yet. Thats simply not how correlation and causation works, its specious reasoning

And not to mention you probably don't have a decent enough sample size. Not meant as an insult, but let's assume this worked for you 20 times...thats still a very small sample

And then guys get stuck in their ways without understanding the methodology behind it, recommend it to others and that perpetuates the cycle

For the record, im not trying to tell you what to do. I'm saying you shouldn't give advice like that to other people without understanding the methodology behind it

When I offer advice as a dating expert, its because I understand the methodology and have a massive sample size

That's never happened in my experience, in fact I've never been flaked on whenever I sent that text.


Theres no discernible correlation though. All I'm saying is that in a vacuum that is a terrible text to send. As a dating coach I would never advocate sending that text, it will hurt someone's chances way more than help

100% method to prevent a girl from flaking on you.

Send her this text when you make first date plans:

"So you're not like one of those girls who flakes on dates, are you?"

Call her out on this with a bit of a tease early on. She will now have to respond by either blocking you (in which case, good riddance), or not flaking on you because you've shifted the responsibility onto her. She will also be stunned because no guy has ever said that to her.


Lmao what terrible advice. All youre doing is subcommunicating insecurity and implying you've been flaked on a lot

This is why it cracks me up when this board thinks it gives good dating advice
