good work man. Im envious. I've got a BR of $1500 and am quickly approaching $2k at which point I'm going to test the water at $100NL for a few buy-ins. Any advice on the difference from 50cent to $1?

Lol you don't know who i am?

lol at not knowing big rob

ROFL!!

I had no idea =)

Now I feel bad - I don't like harassing other LP.net guys. Now I know who you are I can avoid you in the future and keep my BR safe, haha ^^ The real question is, did you know who I was while we were playing? I'm curious =)

27s, I think the biggest diff I remember was that some people will actually 3bet light other than aggro maniacs. I also found that there were a LOT more TAG players and it was really hard for me to win vs them by playing TAG too.

btw rob, notice how I left the table pretty soon after you said that? +1 to rob for intimidation factor, hehe

i very much knew who you were and thats why i typed that lol, i wasn't being serious,.... maybe a little : )

man fucking move down honestly you wanna learn you soon-to-come harsh lesson of poker 101 at 1/2 instead of .5/1 or .25/.50

btw that was NOT a fishy table lol....

and anyway... about your whole BR management, i think you should try to achieve a good winrate and better your skills at 100 nl instead of worrying so much about BR and limits.... its all about trying to get a solid winrate.... forget about the money and just try to get better at poker

There were 2 HUGE fish on there! Plus 1 TAG and you... and some other guy who wasn't involved in much at all. I played basically all my hands @ that table vs the 2 shortstacked fish.

Thanks for the advice =) I definitely focus on the better @ poker all the time. I just have some BR rules for myself that have kept me from ever going bust. I also like to keep moving up as I can and am fine with taking shots since I move back down really quickly. Overall winrate @ NL100 has been fine so far though I don't have a huge amount of hands, I do admit that. But I'm fine bouncing back and forth between the 2 for now, especially since I'm at the high end of being rolled for NL100.

I'm not completely new to the game despite some of my idiotic mistakes that I've made lately... I've had plenty of downswings and harsh lessons. I started playing about a year and a half ago and really didn't get anywhere for the first year. The last 5 months I've played 121,000 hands and faced a lot of tough shit, the hardest being dealing with my own emotions. I'm pretty well rolled and ready to drop down very quick, so anymore harsh lessons that come I can take them on @ NL100 if they force me to move back down. I appreciate the concern but I think you're making judgments based on very little info about me, what I've been through and what I'm capable of.

Anyway, here's all my stats for the last 5 months:



Thanks for the concerns though, and especially for the comments on the hand in the midstakes forum =)

yeah iplaypokeher just sat and so did bait... bait took the spot of a superfish. Didn't play with them long =)

lol I wonder what your note on big rob sais

Taking shots is fine. Just have the discipline to move down if you have to.

definitely. That's the only way shots work.

and lebowski, I'm pretty sure it was just that he kept stealing with 3x raises and that I kept 3betting him =)
