**Official uNL Microbrew thread: Feb (LC thread)**

I think I'm switching to MTTs only for a while, maybe dabbling in cash games (probably on UltimateBet), I just don't feel good at microstakes 6-max. I have no fold equity and when I can't make hands I get upset and spew like crazy. I'll probably go from MTTs to SSNL, at least, that's the goal.

Ok, I hate shortstacks. This guy bluffed off a few chips to me last hand so I think he's steaming and pissed off that I'm bullying him around:

And Diceman, how much have you earned so far? I still see you are playing at the $0.02 tables. Not ready to move up yet?

not ready yet, my BR was at 65 until those two hands, im now at 54 again. i two tabled 10nl for about 10-15 minutes but got nothing interesting and got bored with two tables so went back to 4 5nl tables. i cant 4 table 10nl yet since 40 bucks is pretty much my entire BR. i also have no way to get money to stars so depositing isnt even an option at this point.

Bad timing. And what an awfull limp/reraise with his AA, unless he is leveling you gO0t which I don't assume... Funny thing on Stars is: you don't see it coming. Cards are turned up only at SD, iirc. Cash-Game-Style.

When you don't have any progress in your game and always fall back, you should stop multitabling so much maybe and work on your game by single-tabling and thinking about each and everything. Your autopilot probably isn't as good as you think. No offense man, but it's easy to get carried away multitabling.

Yeah I only see cards at the end. I think I had just won a big pot and I kinda felt like gambling here LOL.

Not before you give us some MTT advice, so I can finally score in one [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img].

Me registering first would be good start as I missed a freeroll by RB provider lst night by not registering in time [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Hehe, I like to think I'm pretty knowledgeable in MTTs/situational poker and I'm usually online, so just shoot me an IM on AIM/MSN (both handles are in the microstakes list).
