Default Re: Don\'t really mind shortstackers,

Is there any chance that this forum will become permanent? I really hope so.

The average person who chooses to learn limit first is more intelligent than the average NL schmuck imo. This coupled with the overabundance of noise in the NL forums makes me want to post exclusively here.

Default Variance can be fun too!!!

This is mostly a reverse bad beat:brag post (thats why I'm posting it in this thread) but since I am so green at NL I am sure I played it wrong and wouldn't mind a bit if somebody told me the right way to play it.

At the time, on the flop I could only remember that a raise should be about 3X the bet but later I got to thinking that might just be preflop and I could've over played this flop and folded everybody [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I know the check raise on the turn looks dangerous but I figured if he checked it thru I would push the river. ????

Anywayright or wrong it was fun to win that many BB in one hand [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Bona, what a bonehead BB was. You c/r 2 times and he doesn't get the message. Usually these are HU anyway and you got the money in so well done.
BB hit his Q and couldn't lay it down, and put you on a desperate situation trying to shake him of and to him your river AI looked like a desperate action to bluff allthough Bona was working on a cunning plan to get his money in.

Come on, now who would c/r quads, right?

Default Re: Variance can be fun too!!!

a general question to you limit players:

is multitabling common/standard?

if any of you have multitabled limit and no limit, how do they compare? is limit easier/harder?

[/ QUOTE ]

NL is easier to 2-table, and is more of a waiting game, patience is needed. There is not so much of a grinding element, and there is less pressure to change your stats just because certain stats are regarded as nitty.

One reason why NL is easier to 2-table (for me) is because less energy is needed to worry about stealing or defending blinds, them being small in proportion to the potential pot.
