don't worry...I'm no longer a threat

i'm messing with 100NL FR again after a horrid run at 200NL 6max

according to the s-bux calculator, I was down 17 buyins in equity yesterday........I need a break from that

unfortunately, I stacked off with an overpair to a set at fullring today....tough to get out of the 6max mindset

Sucks you hit a nasty run at 6-max.

Are you still playing a gagillion hands a month?

[/ QUOTE ]
yes...i played about 13k yesterday

[ QUOTE ]

Are you going back to 6-max now or will you be at FR for a while?

[/ QUOTE ]
both...I just need a slower paced day today to keep me from tilting. 12-tabling fullring is like a leisurely stroll for me

[ QUOTE ]

Are you short-stacking 6-max or playing deep?

Inquiring minds want to know...

[/ QUOTE ]
both
shortstack the 2p2ers and such since most are awful verse it.
Buyin deep as soon as I spotted a huge donkey (like 70/20/2 or whatever)

AhHa!

Here's my problem - I was getting it in ahead too often! This is Stars, you need to get it in way behind and depend on the river.

oh yeah....6max is full of donkey players. I don't know why anyone would want to play fullring fulltime. there are just so many looser guys calling down with bottom and middle pair.

This is interesting, I had heard that weaker players had made a switch to FR, which were now the fishier games. (I don't play 6max so I can't compare).

Do you think this is site/level dependant?

You guys gotta listen to this interview with Barney Frank on holdemradio if you haven't already!

Time for a break. Battling back but it's not easy. Is it just me or have there been a ton of shortstacks all week-end?

Today so far:
