you doubled up in the first 2 hands? nice!

Don\'t worry it can be done

One commet though, the 0% winning when going to showdown at NL25 is 1 hand. Had JJ raised the pot and got one caller. Got a ten high rags flop villain checked and I potted it and got called. Turn another T, smelled a rat when my opponent checked and checked behind. River a 3 that did not complete anything. Villain minbet which is less than 1/10th of the pot and I called, he showed KT for the pot. Perhaps calling that quarter is spew, but now I know more about him and he did not see my JJ.

Currently trying out NL25 to see if I win as much while getting more bonus $$, more than adequately rolled for NL10 even if I should drop 2-3 buy-ins at NL25.

NL is starting to feel like the old days of limit, there are a ton of tables and its easy to find ones full of complete retards just begging to give you their money. I can't wait until I actually start to grasp NL, cuz I think I can completely crush these games, especially if the multitabling regs are as bad as most of them are at limit.

No more months like this please Poker gods
 

August has been my worst month ever, overall.
I started with a 200 BB downswing in limit (2/4 and 3/6) chasing a bonus on Party while doomswitched. Party also doomswitched my NL play to the tune of 9 buy-ins or so.
There was some tilt in here, I guess about 20-30% of total losses.

In the meantime, I was doing OK on Everest. So I decided to go against common accepted practice and move from Party to Stars, also moving down to NL25 (from NL50) in the process).
That is around hand 12K below.

I then had the most unbelievable hot run ever on Stars and Everest, running at 24 PTBB/100 for the remainder, that's hand 12K and up. There's some semi-tilt even near the end, where I got overly optimistic vs some Everest maniacs.

Re: My biggest pot yet
 

I accidentally removed all filters on PokerTracker tonight, making it grind for minutes to compile stats for all 152,000 hands of poker I played in the last 18 months.
I am actually just around break-even, so thank god for bonuses.

Also, in the field of variance, these are my top 9 hands in terms of BB/hand:
AA,KK,AKs,QQ,A4s,AKo,QTs,TT,66.

Re: My biggest pot yet
 

Anything I can do here? Nearly 200BB deep was super close to calling but in the back of my head all I could here were the 2+2 "never fold KK preflop" voices.

Villian is 20/17 over about 100 hands but I've not got any notes on him.

He obviously had AA but am I being results oriented or am I being closed minded with the "no foldy AA pre" thinking? From his stats he is solid so isn't 4-betting much, not with the coldcall from BB. Once I push I can't see him calling with anything other than AA. The other argument for folding was that I'd only invested $7 into the pot, so I could get away pretty cheaply, or in this case I couldn't get away [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

BRAG: I think I\'m finally getting this game.
 

I had a horrid limit downswing in August, at the end of which I decided I really had to try to learn NL, at which I had been unsuccessful for some time.

I rebuilt my demolished bankroll by nitting about at NL25 until I felt confident (and bank-rolled) to try my hand at NL50 again.

Since then (August 22) I've been running totally nucular (TM GWB):

http://img160.imageshack.us/img160/6...0070912jo8.jpg

NB: I'm also halfway thru Professional No-Limit, which is already influencing my game, though I think that finally understanding the idea of pot size control was more important than anything else.

Finished PNL
 

Wowza... was travelling across the country today and I stuck PNL in my bag before I left. I had gotten caught up in some other stuff and had neglected my reading, but still played here and there a bit.

Talk about paradigm shift... the SPR stuff is mind blowing.

Re: Finished PNL
 

damn havent played poker for 3days now to busy with school and motor lessons, doh me tired

NL is so easy
 

Just posted a visual aid with stats and graphs to the benefits of NL over LHE on BBV.

I really can't believe how easily I made the switch. I think it is easy for anyone who had played limit to beat the uNL games, because so many of the people playing there are brand new to poker and have no clue how to play poker. Even though I had no experience playing NL, at least I knew how to play poker, and that gives you such a big edge at these low stakes.

taking a break from sh limit. playing some nl200 at pstars and gosh i tilted really bad. could feel my heart pumping thru the side of my skull. was only winning all the little pots and for some reason having to fold (when its obvious im beat) or lose in the big pots tilts me in nl. it's not monkey tilt like i turn into a spewing station but more like i start raising my bluffing frequency and aggression all the while losing my concentration because of the xtra adrenaline. it sux. normally i take a break, but my gosh the tables were juicy. end result below:

Hero checks, Button checks.

Make the set. Decide to give a free card, DUH! I wasn't thinking. Even less than 2/3P would've priced out some drawing hands.

River: ($0.44) J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $0.44</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to $1</font>, Hero calls $0.48 (All-In).

Horrible card drops, and now I commit, 1 or 2 streets too late. I bet the pot.

Final Pot: $2.28

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
Hero has Qh Qc (three of a kind, queens).
Button has 4c As (straight, ace high).
Outcome: Button wins $2.36. </font>

You gotta love the learning process.

This disgustingly badly played hand shows that some people have to learn the same lesson in NL as well as in LHE. Enjoy.

Not enjoyable and Ill take it easy on you cause this forum sux and you cant really seek strategy advise for nl anywhere on this site. Your play is pretty backwards but you are uncomfotrable so its understandable. Why are you at 1 cent 2 cent and buying in with a medium stack??? This is where you want to learn how to play with a full stack. I mean If you have a terrible day here your gonna lose like 20 bucks.
Playing with medium stack not only kills the learning process but it makes the game much harder for you to play. You are forced into commitment in more marginal spots and you are unable to determine hand ranges bc you cant get any information before your committed. If bet sizing is your problem dont let it be when you are going to bet just make sure you bet at least 2/3 pot. If you are going to reraise preflop make it about 3x in position 4x out of position and add a bb in for every player whose in the pot with ya. Betting and raising is the easy part, it's the delicacy of learning when to slow down and speed up that you need to learn BC all NL comes down to is getting the other guys stack not winning more hands and if you can only take 60 BB off your opponent you are only hurting yourself.

OK.. NC thread getting no recent love, so let's change that...

I [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] this forum and I never imagined how many juicy NL games were actually out there. It's a nice break from grinding out 2/4 and 3/6 LHE and actually having to table select some.

I was gonna dig this thread back up but you beat me to it. Running crap leads to playing like crap, hopefully there is a glimmer of hope at the end there though. I've only been at nl100 a couple of weeks so this feels way worse than it really is.
