Here's what I think for buyins for levels:

10nl/25nl : 20 buyins
50nl : Move up at 30 buyins, move down at 20
100nl: Move up at 35 buyins, move down at 25
200nl: Move up at 40 buyins, move down at 30
400nl: Move up at 3 buyins, move down at 0

Don't lie or I'll sink your barge !

Just 3 tabled 210 fpps and got the ticket in all three.
Run godly in everything but 25nl... still $33 rakeback is not bad.

These frickin rule, i cant wait til my 300fpp's come thru from the survey, i'll have enough to play 2 then 😀 , i've cashed in 3/5 so far. According to pt i've paid $54 in rake, made $33 playing those fpp satt's so 58% rakeback for me 😀😀😀😀 and my mate doesnt play on stars b/c theres no rakeback lol
 
Made like $3 tonight over 2 hours 6 tabling 5nl, just seemed like everytime i had a decent hand i'd raise preflop and would take down the blinds and the odd limper, i know this means i haven't lost any coin with them but its waaaaaaayyy more frustrating than being called by a donk hitting some miracle flop.

Switch, you should consider something like a 3 bet shove in those spots.

OMFG.... Stars deposit sytem is tilting the **** out of me. I can only deposit $1k today... and no more than $2k in 2 weeks!
 
Actually I just had a thought. We've had some great videos from CC members about all different types of limits/plays/etc etc. The majority of our videos have been from really great players as instructional videos showing how they play and there thought processes. What about a video from someone who is actually struggling to cope with variance, the limit there playing, self confidence, mindset etc etc. I'm sure there's a lot of players who suffer this at some point in their play but actually a video of someone who is struggling rather than someone who is on a heater or whatever, may be more educational with the right discussion and post video analysis.

Any thoughts?
 
Me and jurn did this jagsti, or have you forgot.

Or are you looking for something else.

Nobody commented on mine lol

Think the sound was abit low but I will correct that for next time.

Think Jay means somebody who is struggling now, we did ours a few weeks back.

Also how is the darkside Jay?
 
Well that's 163 minutes of my life wasted.
I don't like supposed 'drunkbob' which is the 200bbs drop in 1 hand.
Last drop is AA < JJ, he flats 3bet pre and flops a set.

maybe you should listen to me when i specifically tell you, no point calling here, your never ahead, you were probably behind on flop aswell, instead of replying with, nah i think im ahead.....oh
 
also in 8k hands, im yet to get 4bet and yet to win a stack with queens, running into kings and aces consistently flatting 3 bets ftl
 
yeah, std. you can still get away from low flops a lot when they make it obv that they don't have AK (which will usually be on the turn)

i'm guessing there's not that much light 3betting at 25NL so they probably have it surprisingly often
 
Yeah... this is totally sustainable. That's 89bb/100 at 100NL, 145bb/100 at 50NL.

March is awesome.

I would take a shot right now and move back down at 15 buy ins or if you want to be a little safer just wait for 25 and move down at 20, whatever you are comfortable with.

i haven't had many sweat sessions but have had few with some people and I would be willing to sometime if you want to set up a time or w/e for like 30-60 minutes or w/e.
