I'm finally back on my feet after dropping 4k at NL400 last Monday.

Overall, I can't complain about my first full month of cash games... they sure beat the hell out of SNGs.

Anyone have a bet pot script for Stars NL game using the mouse slider?

IE, you want to raise so you use the mouse scroll... you want to bet pot or 3/4 pot and you right click?

I looked in software forum, but couldn't find the one that worked for stars, only the party ones...

obv i lose 3k after posting my graph

variance is GAY

[mkflsam]

you're easily costing yourself 10k/month by not playing at 400nl.

one thing you may not be considering is you'll improve at 400nl much quicker than at 200nl. most of the tags are mediocre-decent at best at 200. if you're looking to open up your game, you'll get many more opportunities to do so at 400, and they'll most likely be more profitable since the extra aggression is warranted more often.

having a template to go off of is great, just remember your style may actually be closer to optimal at 200nl than Don's. at 400/600, it probably is a different story.

congrats on the great month, that is pretty inspiring for only playing at 1/2 nl.

btw, how many tables do you usually play?

2 databases - no clue if there is a way to merge them.




Took a nice break for a week and got back a few days ago. Graphs are mostly 1/2 and some 2/4 shots towards the end.
