Hi there!

Thanks for the brief note!

You
wouldn't happen to know Sean Noobsauce, would you? He's a coworker of mine
and a very dedicated participant in the Boston IFF. I've actually been
to a couple of movies at IFF (animated shorts, Soul Kitchen, World's
Greatest Dad), but not to the extent that he has (he gets the Festival
Pass and absolutely maximizes the number of movies he can view!). He
also runs the Boston Bacon Lovers Convention.

The other thing
that caught my attention is that you noted that 92.5 The River was
"Music for the Independent Mind." I thought that 88.9 WERS had that
slogan! So I just googled that phrase, and lo and behold, WERS it is...

I'm curious as to what small school you opened, and how you are able to work from home.

You googled it.

As fun as you'd be to date - I think I'm going to pass.

Yes, I know Sean. He's a VIP.

Just now!

PETTY Motivated:

To
clarify, I "googled it" to verify my suspicions on which radio station
uses that tagline, not to cheat on the answer. It was possible that both
stations use the phrase. What was worse, looking up the answer, or
using the word "googled"?

Fine, openly googling something (or
using google as a verb) is a dealbreaker for you. Next time, I'll either
lie about how I verified something, or I will use the phrase "performed
a search on the Internet" instead. Either way, I'll make sure I know
how one feels about someone who uses the word "google" in a sentence
beforehand.

Someone who has a problem with "I googled it" is someone _I_ would pass on.

Thank you for enriching my experience on here, and GFY,
Googler

Stages of a TAG

1. Hrmm, this K5s looks kinda good

2. I will never play anything but these 18 hands under any circumstances

3. I need to fold postflop if I don’t hit a hand. And I need to fold to pressure if I don’t have a great hand.

4. Maybe I can loosen up a little bit in position. I can play more hands because I know how to fold them postflop.

5. I need to bet my good hands hard so I can get value for them.

This is basically the evolved stage of a “nit”. Tight preflop, slightly looser in position, and mainly putting in serious money postflop only with strong hands. Nits can make money, but they need to really multitable hard to get any kind of real traction.

6. I can semibluff decent draws postflop with essentially no added risk.

7. C-betting is much more powerful if you follow it up sometimes with turn barrelling.

8. I should 3-bet more hands preflop for value.

9. I can now play a few more hands from all position because bluffing makes bad hands profitable sometimes.

10. I need to adjust my preflop game to my opponents. That means not folding as much to frequent 3-bettors, calling more on the button against light openers.

11. I should look for small pots that nobody in particular seems to want and attack them.

This is where a lot of the TAG regulars in microstakes fit in.

12. I need to adjust my postflop play somewhat to my opponents. That means getting it in with stuff like top pair against bad or loose players.

13. I can make money by stealing more preflop. I can steal more loosely from the button, and I can 3-bet light from the button and blinds.

14. I can also get carried away and start opening too many hands from all positions.

15. I can combat light 3-bettors with light 4-bets and light 4-bettors with light 5-bet shoves.

16. Double barrelling can be quite effective, and sometimes I should resort to firing three barrels.

17. I can take aggrodonks who bet every flop off their hands with well-timed raises and floats.

18. I should seek out bad players and try to isolate them to play as many pots as possible with them.

19. Preflop hand values usually depend far more on the situation than on the intrinsic value of the cards.

20. The size of the pot determines how aggressive I need to play and how committed I am to the pot.

21. I should look for large pots that people seem to have given up on and shove my money in.

22. I can value bet on the river much lighter against bad players and expect to get called by worse hands.

This is about where you need to be if you want to play online poker for a living at the $1-$2 level or so. At this stage players usually vary from loose TAGs to LAGs.

23. I need to focus on line balancing. Reading hands lets me find unbalanced lines in my own play and in my opponents’ play.

24. Through obvservation I can determine roughly what level my opponent plays at and out-level them by one level

25. I can make seemingly drastic adjustments to my game to exploit opponents playing an unbalanced strategy.

It's fun to pay $15 in a copay, $115 to that same dermatologist, $68 to the "MASS GEN PHYSICIANS ORG" and then finally another $198 to MGH. $396, all just to see what the bump on my hand was. Makes one wonder where my health insurance money goes.
