Seen you at 50 OP. GLGL.
thanks
I'll stick to NL25 for a while, try to grind it out to $2k, losing $700 in a day was really tough. Also I saw that my game had a lot of flaws, specially vs NL50 regs.
Most nl25 regs are bad and keep calling you down with crap, while on NL50, I can't expect to triple barrel TPTK and get calls from worse vs a good reg
I think I'll make sure my game is fine before I move up, of course I'll still play 4-tables during the "dark hour" of NL25, but will have some sessions where I'll think more and try to squeeze the maximum value off each hand.
if I'm fine with my game by the time I reach 2k dollars, then I'll open 2-tables at NL100 and play with the assistance of my apprentice. I taught him how to play poker, he is really good, although he stopped playing(he was a NL25/NL50 reg when he stopped). But I think it's good to have someone with you to help with reasoning, feel more confident, don't tilt.
My strategy when I moved up was to play as crazy as I could, by distorting people's HUD, showing myself as a 40/30/20 donk, but when I started playing NL25/NL50 people started calling me down a lot. Recently I made a huge calldown vs someone like that, I saw why it's bad to do it vs better players.
maybe playing tighter is better, right? So I can find more info about villains?
what should I do when I move to higher stakes and have no info on players?
what really crippled mt was the amount of regfish that wouldn't fold on these stakes, making my strategy really bad. Also by having 0 hands on people, I ended up bluffing fish without knowing it.
