[/ QUOTE ] I disagree with the first part of this post. You definitely dont need a coach in order to move up. Its not -EV if you are beating your current level and spot some good tables higher. |

[/ QUOTE ] How i feel aswell, but I will start playing 400NL even before i leave university, as long as I am ready to beat it for a higher hourly rate. No point in moving up until my horuly is significantly higher imo. Im definately going to need coaching before perm moving to 400nl though. Anybody got a good guide on making a poker video with camtasia? I found a really good guide for camstudio, i successfuly made some small videos into .avi files, but when i try making a 1hour long video with camstudio afterwards it says cannot merge the audio track with the video (this is even before converting it to xvid ..right after it finishes recording when i press stop). Camtasia seems more reliable, any decent guides on making a poker vid with that? couldn't find anything in search. |

Re: .
SN,
Use the microsoft video codec with camstudio, then use a program called AllToAvi to convert it to DivX (= Xvid). |

In fact, mosr of the time when you initially move up your hourly will be lower. Its normal progression IMO. |

[/ QUOTE ] Then we have different definitions, because your advice (and the hands you post) differs greatly from what I see most "tagfish" doing online. In any case, some people can move up, sure. Most people beating nl200 for 3-4 PTBB will have problems, though. |

Re: .
Moving DOWN is hurt my winrate (in ptbbs) a lot, lol.
I cashed out my entire roll in December to pay for grad school, and in February (first paycheck post-tuition) put $500 online to start building a new roll. Figured I'd move up fast. MAN I spewed away $150 fast. Note to self: don't 3-bet the micro-fishies too light. Second note to self: just because YOU know they have a weak hand, doesn't mean THEY know they have a weak hand. I played 35/30 and was FPSing everywhere, cause I was way overconfident I could outplay everyone. In reality I was just donating to the loose-passives that couldn't fold a pair. Took me a while to get back to NL200 after that escapade. |

Re: .
bilbo i've been thinking lately (because i'm in your spot right now) that it's probably better not to cash out and instead just stay rolled and tap your credit a bit. your time is too valuable to waste at microstakes
