Cool...that clears things up.

I 12 table as well and # of tables is a big part of the equation. I run 13/8 and pass on some marginal spots because of multi tabling. A lot of regs have been making negative remarks about my play,calling me a nit or worse [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]... the strange thing is I usually play more hands and raise more often than those making the comments?

I think too many people try and fit their game around numbers instead of just keeping themselves in situations where they're comfortable?

I know I need lots of work on my post flop game,but I have to play a style that suits me. I think two identical situations can have different EV for different players as the decision tree lengthens.

Thamks for the info.

How many tables do you play?

I'm new to NL but I would be pretty impressed with 10BB/100 over a large sample(500,000 hands).

Who cares what people say. If I could beat the game for better rate playing 2/0, I would.

This one question would make my win rate go up at least 100%...how does GrandMelon get people to call AND reraise with Q10?!?! Oh, and then flop a 10 or Q and always think its the best hand. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
