Message: [QUOTE="John A, post: 2260964, member: 88730"] Lots going on with the holiday season, so taking a brief posting break. But I have some big things planned for this thread, because I've been giving it some thought, which I'll share below. 1) After losing a house down payment because of black friday, and basically kissing that money good bye, AND having played a lot of mid-stakes post black friday and having to wait almost 11 months to get my money off (which I thought I might have lost again), I made a small deposit and have played almost all small stakes since then. I came to the conclusion a couple of weeks ago, this may be where I stay for awhile because I'm not super comfortable keeping a large roll online anymore. 2) Playing exclusively 50-100nl, which I hadn't really done this much in maybe 7+ years, adds a fresh perspective. I can absorb a lot of variance that I couldn't when I played those games regularly simple because... well, I'm a lot better of a player since then. I know how to maximize all of my situations, and I understand high EV bluffing opportunities better than I ever have. 3) Thus... I want to develop a lot of content from this perspective. I started doing that will Polished Poker, and I'm going to build on that will supplemental video content. I want to specifically address the parts of the game that I see students miss the most. It's sometimes a lot of little things, but those little things add up. Those are the things that help you absorb variance. If you're maximizing your spots well, you can absorb a lot of bad beats. Any ways, just some thoughts. I want to list these concepts out and talk about how those small differences add up. And perhaps this will also bring up other ideas and concepts people have found and would like to share as well. The goal being we can literally make a list of bankroll expanding tips. I'm sure other people have some that I don't employ often, or other ways to take advantage of low variance, high EV opportunities. By the time we're done, you should have a ton of tools in your poker belt to pick from. That would be the goal. I'll throw it out there, and you guys can let me know what you think. I have over 100k hands played recently at small stakes now. [URL="http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/707/08r3.jpg/"][IMG]http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/8467/08r3.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [/QUOTE]
