As of right now, i'm playing NL$10 on Full Tilt and doing nothing but breaking even. I have been posting the trouble hands i have here, and told for the most part that the lines i take are standard. I'm starting to wonder if my play is bad, it's just a stalemate,
or if the rake is what is killing me (it's so high at this level, but i don't have the bankroll to go up a level yet)
The only thing that's been keeping my head above water is the Reload bonus. I lose at about the same rate i release my bonus. :/
Has anyone been able to make a profit at NL$10 on Full Tilt? Do you play full tables or 6 man tables?
I get the feeling i must be overthinking the people sitting at my tables. I also feel like i either raise to often or to little (depending on how i'm playing at the time).
I feel like every continuation bet i make with air gets called, and every bet i connect gets an insta fold. (and i always raise the same amounts)
I have no idea when to play suited connectors if someone raises.
I don't think i'm aggresive enough with my pairs preflop (i seems to play QQ+ ok, but JJ and lower i seem lost outside of playing it for a set.
With hands like JJ or TT, when i raise preflop, if there is an A, K, or Q on the flop, they smooth call and i have no idea where i am on the turn or how to play the turn. Give up the hand? Fire another bullet? Check call the river?
I need help! I will keep bringing my hands here, but i think i need such a mass overhaul, that line checks for hands post flop don't seem to be my problem. I just think my preflop play could use some advice.
Is there any money to be made just set mining at these lower levels? Should i be raising the pairs that i am trying to spike sets with?
I really feel that my flop play and river play are strong, and i have a lot of problems with my Preflop and turn play.
I'm a mess....Help.
