At first I thought UB was the toughest site i've played at, but you just need to practice good table selection. There's plenty of real big fish there. I had to fight myself to not sit down at a 5/10 table with most of my bankroll earlier, they were that bad.

I agree. At least at 25NL there are always several tables with avg vp$ips above 50%. And so far none of the regs I play with have made my life too difficult.

how about 100NL +...not many fish in those waters.

Yeah I wouldn't know about that. If you're boondoggle2 I've been seeing you at 25NL, so I figured those were the games you were referring to.

[boondoggle]

no, I decided not to play under the same name as the one I post on 2+2. I see that as -EV.

The 100NL+ games seem to be not as loose/passive as some other sites. It appears that 3betting is now the norm and 4betting is now the old 3betting..lol.

The 100+ games have not been too good lately. Usual table will have 1 or 2 decent lags, a few nits and then a single fish or shortstackiot that everybody's trying to feed off. The most common exploitable regulars are the nits and that's just boring as all hell; win a decent amount of small pots and then just hope you're on the plus side of the eventual cooler.

One of the fish was chatting today about the difficulty of depositing and the 1-2week delay keeping away the gamblers (no idea what delay he means?). The games are still playable, but getting worse every day.

One other gripe about the UB 100+ games is that there is almost zero deep stack play. The vast majority of players (including the regulars) will rathole anytime they win a big pot. Yesterday I was 4 tabling and, besides myself, there were a grand total of 4 players (out of 20) that had 95% or more of a max buyin.

I agree. Ironically, I thought it was tight last summer. Boy, was I wrong. I stay because of RB, bonus, and weekly bonus but I miss Bodog quite a bit.

[chicagoY]

Well, that would help me quite a bit, lol.

I haven't seen NL 25 about 40 in a while. There's an occasional table but most are <35. NL 50 is rockville.
