By the way people, shortstackin is gay, i lost 1k the other day riding the variance wave and i decided not to go any further. Stars hates me, I cant win, I play good and run like [censored]. How the [censored] can someone lose 1k in a day 40 bucks at a time ssing the nl200 game, rigged.

I just played some 6 max and man was it refreshing.

It is just much better suited for my game. I liked full ring for a while as a low variance bankroll builder, back when the games were REALLY good, but the games just aren't that good anymore and I can't beat the nit grinders at their own game...it just doesn't suit me.

So mark my word - only 6max, HU and donkaments from now on! I'm still gonna troll these forums though and try to start HU grudge matches [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
