With your style TP, variance will definitely be much greater than others. I think the regulars are probably starting to bluff check/raise you a lot more knowing you cbet the flop far greater than most.

Damn regulars!

If that was the extent of it, that would be one thing... but I'm getting my money in with the best of it and being drawn out on a LOT more than one would expect. And I'm just not getting big hands either. And when there is a big hand vs. bigger hand situation, I seem to be on the losing end of it (regardless of which hand I held) about 80 or 90% of the time.

I think you are right about the regulars though......

Yes, I recall. So, reverse roles - you're me. How do you play AK differently here?

if i were you, firstly i'd practice better table selection (lol kidding)

i usually play this the same way, except sometimes i'll check back the flop.

Funny... cause I think I'm going to have to start CBing a lot less - at least against the "regulars." I hate to do that though, since it worked (past tense) so very, very well for me. But for the guy who check raise me a lot, I may have to check behind more often. It really pains me to not CB though.

Lik in this hand, if I check the flop and the turn bricks, you're going to lead at the turn. So then what? Fold? Bluff raise?

TP if I were you I would start playing 2/4 and rebuild and get your confidence back.
I cbet alot just like you, but I do change my sizes up alot, (1/2 - full pot) with 2/3 being the norm.
I think you could def. vary your play more, seems like its a little too mechanical right now, and you def. can check behind a few flops, you don't have to try to win every hand.
I know you know most of this but just keep it in mind, and vary your play more, also playing 2/4 for awhile would prob be a good idea.

I won't always lead, but, for you, a bluff-raise on the turn is very effective because people often see it as a slow played set. fold the turn sometimes too, imo.

disclaimer: i've probably only played 25k hands of nl cash, take this with a grain of salt.
