Profile for speed/zoom/zone poker

[carille]

What profile do you recommend to use in speed/zoom/zone poker?

I am trying zone poker at Bodog and Endgame is not playing good...

Thank you!

I have my own personal profile for zone poker.

I don't believe any profile currently being sold will be profitable with this format.

There currently is not any paid profile for this format. In the distant past, there was a free profile which played this game type, but the person who made it was a scammer and banned from here.

My advice would be to edit a current 6 man profile and do the changes required yourself (like I have).

In very generic terms do you mind staring what type of changes you made?  Speed is tighter since people can fold garbage and get a new hand?

Speed is tighter, but very positional too.

Open raise a wide range from Button and Cutoff (tighten up cutoff compared to button).

Defend big blind if raised by button often or cutoff semi-often. (Use the "lastraiserposition = " ppl combined with amounttocall <=2 to define small raises from each).

Only play premium UTG and UTG+1.

Fold most small blind due to terrible position. Only raise BB if all other folded with decent hands.

Beware of 4bets preflop ...most likely AA or KK only.

For some reason, when reviewing hands, KK loses for me A TON on speed poker.

Postflop, a lot of raising occurs. Often times it is to counter your cbet and will hurt the bot a lot. You would think postflop raising wouldn't happen a lot due to folding and getting another hand, but it seems to happen more than I would like.

Also, only play when there are 50+ people at the tables, never when less than that.

The poker room definitely has their bots playing these (call it a conspiracy theory if you want).

Thanks appreciate it.  Makes sense.  I'm botting about breakeven on speed maybe just need a few tweaks.
