dont know that much about him - seems to be a pretty successful player. I think maybe a bit tilty/leaky with sports and plays tougher the shorter the game is.

This may be a basic question, but where does the money come from in the big games? Are there still fish playing 200/400 limit? Or is it mainly about finding and exploiting weaknesses in a small group of regulars?

sometimes its all good players just pushing money around, but sometimes there still are fish, and that is where most of the money comes from.

remember also, fish can be a relative term.

what do u do to improve your play?

how would u coach a person that is beggining NL cash?

im starting to 3bet light more often now, here are a couple of simple hand questions.

Assume no reads, 100bb stacks, 6 handed, opp raise from the CO, u 3bet on the SB, he calls. On the flop u cbet, he thinks a little then shoves. When do u call?

1) u have AKs, on a 2c6sTs board
2) u have AKs, on a 2cTcJs board
3) u have TT, on a 259 two tone board
4) u have TT, on a 237 two tone board
5) u have 88, on a 237 two tone board
6) u have 78s, on a 237 rainbow board
7) u have 78s, on a 2c6sJs board
8) u have 78s, on a 269 rainbow board
9) u have 78s, on a 27J rainbow board

to improve my play - make videos (member questions are a great way to stay sharp!), discuss hand with friends, post on stoxpoker and 2+2

beginner in NL cash? I would tell them to get pokertracker/PAHUD, read ed miller's NL book, play 100 hands at micro-limits, then repeat the video and 100 hands over about 50 times.

bet size matter a bit here but in *general* terms

1 - call (but I would check flop going for c/r)
2 - call (but I would check flop going for c/r))
3. close, probably fold
4 close probably call
5. close, player dependant but no reads fold
6 - fold
7 - fold but I think i check flop, tough one here.
8 - fold
9 - fold

I think you play at the highest limit LHE 6-max games online and are a steady winner there. You say you play 5/10-100/200NL. Do you ever play at the biggest NL games at FTP if you see a good table? Is being a winner at the highest NL games something you want to be able to do, or do you plan to stick to the 5/10-100/200 games because you can find (relatively) softer games there, and earning lots of money with little risk is more important to you than trying to be more balla than everyone else?

If you could, describe your process for taking significant jumps in stakes. It seems the progression up to low-middle limits is reasonably easy, but there seems to be a quantum leap between say NL200 and NL400 and/or 10/20 -15/30 or 30/60.
