Hi everyone (though I doubt not many will read this)

I post regularly at TL.net as PanoRaMa. I used to go to this site often, in fact I'm probably within the first couple hundred registered on this site? Regardless, I stopped coming when I realized the sad fact that I was the only fixed limit player here. I was playing 2/4 and 3/6 limit at the time, then moved onto 2p2 where I found a plethora of information.

For the next year and a half, I have followed the teachings of 2p2 rigorously. After the legislation, I switched to NL and started trying to accumulate as much info as I could. I don't post that much, but I ate up all the threads, realized what advice was good, what was not, etc. BBV is probably the greatest thing I've ever come across in my life, etc.

A few weeks ago, I came to the understanding that the style of play advocated by many "winning" posters in the small stakes forums and whatnot was indeed exploitable. To be honest, my play is pretty nitty and weak/tight. I can crush those who are inferior to me at my stakes (100nl), but there's a reason why it's been months and I've only progressed to 100nl. There are extremely skilled players at 2p2 though, but there's also a reason why they're at the higher stakes and no longer at the small stakes - they've surpassed the limitations of the 2p2 nit standards.

Which led me back here. Names I've recognized from a WHILE ago are now successful winners at high stakes. It's funny to see that the lives of some of these posters have been completely changed, all as a result of learning via LP.net (though I guess some may go to 2p2 as well).

Apparently, there's something you guys are doing right. I think a lot of people see 2p2 as the end-all when it comes to good poker advice, which I now see as an untruth. My goal now is to be able to assimilate the best information from both sites. I do have to admit that LP.net is a bit more warm and familiar than 2p2 as well.

So here I am. My aim is to be at 200nl at least by the end of summer. I hope to contribute a lot of info at least to the Medium Stakes forum for the time being, and I'm glad to be back

one of the good things at lp is that high stakes players post advice for the lower limits. At 2+2 it's like a group of players who all play the same limits and are always worried about the best line to take.
Each site has its pros and cons, take what you can from both and learn and improve on your own.
