Shot at NL10

next 20k hands?!?!?!?!? sounds like you plan on 16tabling again. 4table or 6 at max and you should make it to nl25 within 20k hands.

I am very pessimistic here goro, as I practically did move up a limit without building a bankroll on the previous one

But yeah your probably right, 4table is like 1K hands per day and it would take me 20 days and stay breakeven lol I forgot how few hands it is.

terrible precedent for BR mgmt.... oh well.

But just stop 16 tabling and think about the game...

4 tabling is the first step. Stick to it.

Yeah I know, 23BI Is not much. I am always ready to to move down if I lose roughly 5BI's

Never masstable unless you know that you crush that limit even if you do masstabling. Since you are a beginner, you should really focus on getting better instead of masstabling first.

no 23 bi's is PLENTY for taking shots.

I hate the fact that you deposited to move up.

Well uptown I did not deposit just to move up. I just cleared the $50 I started with from pokerstrategy And I would deposit the $50 anyways as I can start clearing it ( I get 100% bonus). Although obviously its cowardess and I am a little pussy but thank god I can still justify it to myself this way -,-

But still, I feel so great at NL10 when I was frustrated with NL5. Even small pots make difference now. Up one BI when I was down one because my KK went dominated all in ;o

Dont worry, NL10 is NO different than NL5 or NL2 at all. Other than I find nobody ever folds to a cbet, so be prepared to start double barreling every turn. Of course it sucks because that puts them on 3 types of hands draws/any pair/AQ+.

One very popular trend I have noticed is fish check-raising allin on random flops with any pair. Basically they call with trash, hit a trash pair, "dont believe you" when you cbet, so they just shove. So if you have like 88+ on a K65 board you should be snap calling all day. When they push in position though they usually have it.

Actually it seems a lot different, much more straightforward game so far (however flawed) than on NL5.

And finally I can translate my bets into beers with the bigger blinds, Jsus that rocks, I go All in 4 pints lolz

You see what they are calling with here? You should be betting full pot every street to extract value out of these whacko's. He'd be stacking off here even without the 2 pair. Whats up with that river bet anyway?

don't degen like me and keep ur BR management. DONT DEGEN AND DONT PLAY OUT OF YOUR LIMITS.

other than that, rape and pillage. =)

why would you move up if you have to learn so much?
