Re: Moving up to NL25 - memo to self
While I'm sure a lot of that can be attributed to bad luck, I can point out one thing. NL25 does tend to play quite a bit tighter than NL10. If you're getting callers to near or above pot size bets...

Re: 200NL: Bottom two pair from BB

Re: the beer hand
72 is very useful for setting one of the guys in my home game on tilt. Raise PF, bet/raise on the flop and take it down. Then show him the bluff and he gets really frustrated. I did it to him...

There is a lot of blame to go around here, but hands get mis-called all the time. The SB should have waited to SEE your hand before mucking his cards. Going by your verbal call should not be...

Depends on the level and online or B&M.
Online:
Micro (NL2-NL25) - 4-bet to 30BB. Fold if they come back over the top. 3-bets at this level are typically done with a lot of PPs and ATs+. ...
