Moving up and grinding a decent roll on Bovada. Possibly future career? - Page 19 - Poker Blogs and Goals -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Stuntman,

Do you have any experience with 100NL FR?

I am a 25NL FR with a roll of $1200 now. I messed around with 100NL FR tonight just out of curiosity. I saw people almost every orbit shoving 100BB for $200 pots with bottom pair. Literally some of the worst play I've ever seen. They'd donk off their stacks almost instantly then leave the table after getting stacked. Way worse than 25NL.

Is this just a fluke or do the whales prefer the higher stakes games to gamble in?

^ If you're talking about bovada I would just start playing .25/.50 with your roll. The games are really juicy at that level if you table select well.

I don't have very much experience with FR on Bovada. I'd like to assume there's more fish on FR as that's what they're more accustomed to playing, so it wouldn't surprise me if they did stuff like that. Although it could just be sample size variance that you sat down on a really juicy table.

Why do donks run so good against me when I have premiums? I have QQ-AA they flop trips, easy game. Otherwise I played very well and had juicy tables.

Not a lot of action hands, nothing of note to give. Flopped the nuts twice but got no action.

A lot of action hands, went down almost 2 buyins and then got lucky in a few spots and managed to book a small profit.

Didn't play today as I had to sign some important financial documents with my parents as I'm cosigning on my parent's loan.

Wow, had some GREAT tables and premium hands and was able to get in a lot of money pre flop and of course got stacked by the fish chasing. Otherwise I don't think I played super well. Just played an average game and had some great tables and hands. Sometimes it's all it takes to have a great night. I did get coolered with KQ vs K6 on a K65K2 board against a fish but other than was a great night.

Ughh I was up 3 buy ins but ran into two big coolers, first was with 99 vs T9 on a K6TT9 board. The 2nd I was AdKx on the SB, CO raises to 3x, BTN raises to 10bb, I 4bet to 25bb, CO calls, BTN calls. Flop is QT6ddd, I have exactly a PSB left and jam, and got called by both players. CO has a set of Qs and BTN has AxKd with the King of diamonds. I also lost a flip with JJ vs AKo.

Damn I had some whales to my right and took advantage. They got lucky on me a few times but I got them back. With calling station whales, I just tightened up a bit and value bet thinner.

Ran really bad, played really bad. Started out pretty well too then just ran into top of people's ranges. Got into a bunch of tough spots.

Nice work Stuntman. Are you just getting into good games or are you actively table selecting?

I recently started table selecting. Any time I leave the computer I just let my HUD run with 4 tables on. If I see a super juicy table when I get back I'll hop in, and just close all of the others. It definitely is helping a lot.

That's not a bad idea bm, I do table select like crazy and I'm not afraid to leave a table after 2 orbits. I know it's a small sample size but you can easily pick out good tables from bad tables in a short amount of time. Obviously the best situation is to have the worse players to your immediate right and I try to get that in all 4 of my tables.

I prefer having the fish on my left and the better players on my right. Then I take money from everyone

gl stuntman. I also grind nl100 6max on Bovada.

Quick question, how many hands can you manage to play in a month? I have a hard time playing more than 30-35K hands a month on this site.

I don't play full time, I play about 10 hrs a week if i'm lucky. I usually get about ~10k hands a month which is decent volume for me.

Ughh, would've done so much better but a stupid whale ran ridiculously well against me when I had KK and QQ with Q6o and A4o, other than that played really well just ran pretty poorly.

Sigh, session was going great until the last 36 hands or so. Ran 55 into 99 J95, and lost two allins against naked flush draws. EV line is off to a great start.

Well today must've been my reward for running bad yesterday. Ran pretty good and got a lot of value against idiot whales. March is off to a fantastic start.
