I am 100% unable to beat NL100 on Stars, so I am droping back down to NL50 for a few months.

One less fish at the tables for ya guys.

you should move up were they respect your raises more. I think that could be the problem.

I will not make it that easy for you to take my money. If you want it join my 50NL tables and take it one buy in at a time.

can next month be the blue duck? i'd name the thread the blue duck because i've never seen a blue duck, and quite frankly, i want to see a blue duck. it'll be quacktastic.

How is it these 45/25/7 droolers are always setting on me. They never fold to my 3bets and they always show me a better hand?

lol it wasnt a prediction, its a fact.
I just lost 800 $ in like 3 hours.
I guess I must get use to it if I want to play more nl200.

At least I made 80 $ in the 50K
