Default Re: Up $4000 in 24 hours - am I any good or just a lucky donk?

he feels like hes on some sort of sly heater... loool. I dont ask for gimmicks, because i know there are a lot of players as clueless as you.

But to answer your question, def keep playing 5/10, i mean those donks hitting their outs on you all the time are unbeatable anyway. I mean someone on this forum took over a million hands and it didnt work out for him!

Well, I feel comfortable at the higher limit games. I feel I can bluff someone off a set or a straight if there's a potential flush out there. But it just doesn't work with the donks. So less bluffing means you need to rely on the cards more and skill less. Position is everything at the higher stakes, but many donks at lower levels have no idea about position and the fact you raise in early position means NOTHING to these people. At higher levels, they understand that what's going on.

Therefore I feel comfortable at 3/6 or 5/10.

What disturbs me is that some regular 5/10 players from a few months ago who multi-tabled and won big are GONE. Does this mean there's some horrible variance in the pipeline for me?

Or have the winning players just created new account IDs......

I'd move up. Seriously, sounds like you play tight, and as you go up the play gets more agressive. I think if you move up and just play your 12/6 tight nit style you'll clean up.

You speak truth. I was at 10/20 today and there were 3 tight players including myself, and 3 crazy loose ones. I took out one of the loose ones for $900. The other loose one I bluffed off a few pots with re-raises. He was gambling like a looney, but yeah it's pretty aggressive at that level.

I can't see them. I've been searching for the main regs but they're gone. A few regs are still there of course.

I like the 5/10. But the 10/20 is quite wild at times.

Yeah I'm thinking of just withdrawing it all....I don't want to go busto. I'm worried the 'software' will come get me and break me to the tune of 20 buy ins.
