I probably move from a BR nit to a degenerate BRM because have the same amount ($160) and still have planned to keep playing 10nl and even take some shots on 16-25nl later on the month if pass the $250 again.

Tbh i don´t think we need more than $100 for 5nl (20bi´s) even if go on a swing there of 10bi´s down still will have $50 which is more than enough for 2nl (25bis). So with $160 have the 20bi´s for 5nl plus 6bis for 10nl. So i do plan to keep mixing 10nl this month, but is just about what make you feel ok.

The key point for me is to know when to move down, there is no need to wait to go all 10bi´s on the upper level to move down, if see are running crapy just move down early until back to normal.

I mean last month go down 10bi´s on 4-5k hands and feel like shit, but i do follow my plan and cut 25nl tables as soon lose 1bi, then cut 16nl when lost 2 more, then lost 3.5 more on 10nl and cut that too and ended with 3.5 more lost on 5nl. If i lost all 10bi´s on 25 or 16nl i would obliterate my BR but because move down fast i even manage to end month on green (and cashout $45 just before the swing). So i´m fine to take the risk if mean finally getting out of 5nl.

One of the big positives of move up i find is that because games looks little harder, at the time you move down again your previews level look even softer than before which help to put things on perspective. i´m sure if keep trying 16-25nl even if are for short periods will get to the point that 10nl don´t look that hard. But if stay on 5nl until reach $250-$300 like was doing before then will feel i´m stuck there forever.

This is my feeling, but i know everyone need to do what is best for him-self so...

Anyway. Best of luck geting back man.

Lol that's disgusting. Good fold WP. I think there's a very small chance he plays AQ like this some % of the time, but I wouldn't care to speculate on what that % might be...

I don't have stove in front of me so won't comment on that aspect, but I'd still be calling down a bit stronger than JTs. Not so much b/c I think it's not +EV to call but because we're nearly 500 bb deep. Unless I have 300 BI's and don't give a shit, I'm not calling off 5 BI's worth pre against him unless I have an ace, or two bigger cards.

But nh :D

After losing the pot he probably called you a giant donk in the chat right for making that call with JT. Please tell me that happened.

This hand is especially for ScottishMatt who complains that I don't post hands. :) But of course all advice welcomed.

How could I have played this better? Villain stats: 36/9 with 2.1 3bet over 118 hands - I had seen him on previous hands calling down with bottom/middle pair or even A high.

Some missed draws OTR so I probs call as well. I think I prefer not c-betting the flop then betting the turn when we pick up more equity


Plan on posting stats for my first 25k hands at 25NL but my ****in PT4 isn't loading properly :(

One of the easiest folds you'll ever have in poker.

Edit: and I never look at spoilers.

Really? Why? I can see it being a fold - but one of the easiest? Would you mind explaining? Thanks.

Oh - and do you mean x/f or b/f? Thanks!
