Seems like you are making a lot of bad calls on rivers. Most players get increasing more SF as a hand progress; not only that but don't go for thin value as a general heuristic. Keep up the good work man!

        Sorry for the hijack here but I am currently trying to grind up a bankroll at 25NL on FTP. I was looking at the store and see you can buy ring game tickets which essentially give you the money to buy in to a certain game.

        Couple of questions:
        -What happens if you don't earn the requisite points to unlock the value as it says in the FTP store?
        -Is the hit to rakeback worth spending 15,400 points for a $50 buy in?

        I looked through the forums and couldn't find a thread on this topic.

        Again sorry for the hijack, looks like you are improving your game. I would agree some marginal river calls but overall if you keep putting in the volume you will move up from 10NL soon.

        Keep up the good work!

            Good work, and I wouldn't worry too much about the royal flush hand. Hard for you to get paid off there since even without the royal you still are holding the nut flush and second nut flush cards. Maybe he calls a minraise there but really a good player is laying down that river since he can't have any better than the 9 of clubs.

            That full house hand vs. one card straight is what makes the micros profitable. Keep it up!

                    didnt end up playing last night just left it for the day -2bis, my first loosing day at 10nl. I did have a couple break even days where i was +$1. First two sessions today 1246 +$21.25 about 40 cents short of what i lost from yesterday. BR $374 lost another 11 yesterday too because of the tourney i entered argg.almost at 2500 fpp its tempting to get the 25$ bonus but i think ill save the fpp for bigger bonus or scoops. So far at 10nl 13999 hands +$41.71 2.98bb/100
