Part 1

So after yesterday's fun session, I thought I might as well continue playing $2/$4 full ring, since it's incredibly easy to win boatloads of money at.

Here's today's results after about 45 mins of playing.

To summarize:

Small update:

Since I know absolutely nothing about limit poker, can someone tell me how common these kind of rushes are? If this stuff happens every day, I'm gonna stop posting about it.

This is normal. Keep playing.

I think I speak for everyone when I say I'm looking forward to your first fifteen "AA gets cracked by 93o in a 35 BB pot AGAIN" posts.

You're just that good, play 20-40 before the downswing kicks in!

show us your VPIP by position.

Very abnormal. You will soon level off, and run at 25bb/100. I'm personally at 31bb/100 over 300k hands of 2/4, and yes, its very easy. Just be prepared for the downswings, last night I lost two big 6bb pots in a row, but I didn't tilt, and ended the 1k hand session running at a paltry 25bb/100. That's why I haven't moved up yet.

Leveling hasn't started yet:

of course there will be no such posts, as i have no intention of playing this game for much longer, let alone invest time and effort into seriously studying it.

By the way, i started both these sessions just raising almost every hand, including complete crap, and just played them like i had aces. I dropped about 15BB at the start of each session, and after that, everyone started calling me down with ace high and stuff like that. Pretty insane the way they start playing against me after a few hands.
