limit is so much more fun though, you get to raise like 8 times/hand... in nl if someone goes all in, we can't re-raise....

You obviously havent played much limit [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Running bad in NL is like getting mugged in the parking lot. Running bad in LHE is like opening a door where you hand a large man a 20 dollar bill. He then punches you in the face and closes the door. About 20 seconds later you open the door again. Repeat.

i honestly hate online poker. no matter how hard i try i cant get that break - that really good run of cards.

after almost 4.5 hours i ended out $358 up. wooo hooo. my MT ratio was 4.99 (i aim to 7 table but a lot of rocks on party tonight so i gave up with a lot of them).

way too many $300 pots lost on stupid bad beats. hate this [censored] game.

if anyone who was playing the 2-4nl on party in the past 5 hours or so has anything to say, good or bad, about bowel_problems, id be interested (thats my SN). i felt i made a couple of bad calls, but no more. admittedly 2 too many.

i wish bad luck to all those having good luck and vice versa.
