25nl reg tables are softer than 10nl zoom but 400 isn't enough for either.

There's a difference between someone who's won at the limit before restarting in which case I'd recommend as little as 10-15 buyins but I don't think guys fully understand the negative impact of moving up under rolled on your overall psyche in general and especially when you lose

Lol TDA your sensei ain't gonna be happy with preflop there

I also played a bit fishy yesterday.
What would you do differently here? I put out a small raise on the flop, because overcards (Q + K + A) + flush card could kill the action. My plan was to call turn and donk shove any river. Would you gii on the turn? Xr flop?

XRing JJ is bad, obvious XC XC XR when you block nearly everything he can call with.

Vs big hands QQ KK AA, AJ, we get value right away, we also rep nothing. AKx might call once and continue with flush card or TP.
If we call, how likely is he to bluff? Or bet TT-88 for thin value? Those hands can call xr.
On certain overcards, he can keep bluffing, but like an A might kill the action vs QQ-KK.
Those are couple of arguments for check raising. I know it looks weird but vs fishy opponent (stack size) who don't bet for thin value I think it can be ok.

ending the month on a high note should I have shoved turn or maybe folded flop? I bet so small because I figured someone might have the As and I wanted him to get his flush :P full house vs 4 kind vs straight flush, kinda funny
