Hello hello, it's been a while since I last wrote but here we go again. I won't go into much detail about how I've been doing with poker lately. Instead, I'll write some tips that are mostly for myself. Maybe I'll remember them better during a session this way instead of after it when it's too late :D
I don't believe in anything supernatural but I think karma (not the guy from Lpnet) is a real bitch. On two or three occassions this month I've had a good session or two and after that I feel like I fucking own NL100 and 25 PTBB/100 is standard for me. That's when reality kicks in and last week I lost 8bi in one day. That's huge with my somewhat nitty style of 6max. I admit that about half or so, maybe more was due to bad play but the cards weren't falling my way either. Some examples:

Note these are both against the same guy and I had a good reason to call the overbet ai with AA, he was playing really bad but just constantly sucking out on me. Oh well, after that I took a break and started playing again on tuesday. It's been good since and those 8 buy-ins have been won back and a few on top of that. This time, however, I won't go to the tables like I own the world. Instead I'll try to keep playing my ABC game and not make too many moves (I think it's not profitable in NL100 cause the competition is so bad) and most importantly <b>stay humble</b>.
That is another thing I've been thinking a lot about: after moving from NL50 my vpip has dropped a few percents, and my pf raise has dropped about one percent. It's not like I'm afraid at NL100 or anything, this is my second time around and I don't hesitate to make moves when I think it's profitable.
Some examples I quickly found from PT:

So I've tightened up to 19.73/14.94 and I've been really thinking would it be more profitable to open up my game to 25/something cause against most of these guys I think I have an edge postflop so why not go there more often? Of course the situations would be different cause I'd have to play worse hands and so on but I don't know... I think I'll give this a serious try on some lower limit, maybe NL25 where I can afford to donk several buy-ins without too much effect on my br. The games will probably be softer though with less regulars with similar nitty stats like me  The idea of opening my game came to me when I saw a few guys with stats like mine on my tables and thought “omg, nits”. Then I realized I'm like that too and maybe loosening up my play would give more action to my big hands. I have some trouble with playing marginal holdings cause my pot control is terrible. When I get involved, the pot is usually big and that's not good with middle pair type holdings. I want to give it a try though and I'll get some training done at lower limits.
I'd like to ramble some more but I think no-one would read it, I wonder if anyone reads even this :D I'll save it for some other time and maybe even try to make a point then. There's not a clear point in this post but as I stated at the start of my post this is mostly done for myself, if someone gets something out of this that's a plus.
For those of you that are interested my month is 14,389 hands at 5.16 PTBB/100 for a profit of <green>$1,484.40</green>. It's good, it could be better, and it's not enough cause I'm about 1 PTBB/100 behind Muhweli in our march prob bet. I trust he will go on a massive downswing soon enough, or not get the 20k hands we agreed on done :D
