Is this really noteworthy? This happens at every single level.

Yes, it happens often at most levels, it used to not happen every couple of orbits.

The games have gotten seriously softer, and transparent hands get called down for large amounts.

Often I needed someone to make bad calls like the above to simply remain a small winning player, but now I'm up 4 buy ins in the past 1,000 hands, and 2 of those are in the past 130 hands.

After posting this I won a buy in waiting to go to dinner. That could have happened a month or so ago, but it wasn't nearly as common as it seems right now.

have to say i've noticed a lot more fish than usual at 50 and 100 nl this week. Seems like every time i have a hand some1 is all in with something terrible. I keep having to type "totally overcommitted oop w/ TPNK" in the player notes!

Good to hear, I was going to play some NL25 there tonight and this really gets me in the mood to play [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Any idea how long it takes to get 500 FPP's at NL25?

100 FPPs = Something like 2 hours 4 tabling.

I believe it works out to an average of one FPP per FR orbit at 25NL. (can't find the link that was posted in the zoo a while ago that gave the info)

[customer_nr1]

Yeah, I think that's right you get 1 FPP per ~7 hands. But if you have a few hands in PT you can always check it on the game notes tab by filtering for hands in which the rake is more than $0.4(you get a second FPP if the rake reaches $3 but that's negligible at NL25).

[BotOnTilt]

Thanks for the info! I was expecting to get the points faster, but I'm used to sites which give points for $.25 rake and I didn't know how much difference it would make.

midstakes have definitely seen some more true fish the last month but at the same time lots of new regs have also started playing

[pokerscaresme]

I switched from sng's to NL10 a week ago(10k hands).. and shortly after N/PL25(2500),
so I must be partially to blame [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

I keep running into a ton of 2+2ish players and wondering who actually is.

It seems completely backwards to ask your opponents for advice..
but I'd really appreciate some criticism if you've played with me.
