That’s pretty good man you’re humble about it. Did you have much success at 2/5?

I’ve played 1/3 and do good, 5-7bb/hr but when I play 2/5 I feel nervous and don’t have a ton of confidence. Any tips for dealing with a game that’s a bit bigger and tougher?

That’s good that you don’t have confidence. Confidence = rape

Some, but variance was high. That's one of the reasons I moved down.

That's easy.

1) Believe (justifiably) you're better than more than half the table.
2) Be willing to lose $2500 without it hurting.

I failed on both points.

FYP

Haha definitely not ready for 2500 in a day. I’ll work on the confidence thing though.

Thanks man and good luck

Some grade-A trolling today.

I had a -$60K week a couple of weeks ago and it didn't take me much longer to recover from it. I feel like I can't take money very seriously these days.

Hey Sabr how would you characterize yourself as a player? TAG/LAG/nit etc

Thread much better today

Interesting sentence to brunch out of context

I’m a Tag with a hint of Lag, I have great reads and the regs really respect my game and they know I rarely get out of line.

On to the hand. Nit opens 7x from utg - I haven’t seen him play a hand in 3 hours. I call with 75o from utg +1 because I know I can see a flop and just play some poker.

MP, solid pro, 3 bets to 35bb, button who is a good TAG flats, utg flats and I call. I know if I hit my cards I’m likely good because nobody has shown much strength.

The flop is A Q 7 and I have back door clubs. It folds to MP who bets half pot, utg calls and I’m priced in with all my equity. The solver says I can raise here 38% of the time but with my reading ability, I think a call shows the most profit.

Turn is another A. Utg checks and I just decide to shove here with 2 pair to get value from KJ and J10 plus any underpairs to the board. Anyway, They both call. Somehow UTG has QQ and MP woke up with AK but I think my play is solid.

Anyway, what kind of bankroll do I need to play 5/10 for a living?

Seriously? This has to be a troll.

Miami is paying homage to our old long lost pal sol reader

It ackshually made my day a little brighter and more better

this guy is from australia. Not sure if u have heard but based on previous hh's from him the games are quite good down there

This reminds me of a hand from about 15 years ago, shortly after Holdem became legal in CA.

Lots of action preflop, the guy on my immediate left calls 3! preflop, calls a raise on the flop, calls the turn and facing a river bet shows me pocket 2's and says: "I can't believe I didn't hit a set".

He was serious!

No, I hadn't heard. Still, I can't believe the OP is serious. Especially with that last line about playing 5/10 for a living.

But, if he wants to come to N. CA, I'll sit in a 2/5 game with him.

I had 4 sessions in a row winning at over $100 an hour.

I’ve been running pretty badly for the 6 months since but I know I crush the game and once I started running better I can print

I hate to ruin everyone's fun, but it's probably time to tell JayKon that the no trolling LLSNL rule only applies to strategy threads.

I’ve quite literally never seen anyone post a more blatant lie than this right here

Non-troll answer:

The whales think I'm a nit while the actual nits think I'm LAG. All a matter of perspective.
