Ok ive decided im going to play cash on NOIQ. Although Im a little bit warey about having my money in euros its not the strongest currency to convert from and to.

But i get 33% weight contributed rake back + rake race.

im going to be starting at 2/4 with 70Euros. so 18 Buyins.

I'll be playing 1000-2000 hands a session 4 sessions a week and hoping for a 10bb/100 win rate.

at this rate i should make an average buyin a session

at this rate i should have enough to move up to 5/10 with 20buyins in around eight weeks.

before moving to 25NL im looking to have 30buyins so i will be at 5/10 a little longer.

are those the trouble hands?

Well that hand you hit the straight on the river it was all fine to call it as the villain went AI. Though I would have prolly folded earlier as I put this villain on AQ or hitting like 2pair with QJ on the river. If villain has K9 then hell thats poker but for some reason I put this villain on AQ or flopped set due to the agressive reraises as you dont put in any intel on this villain otherwise. hoping for that 8 outer is not the best way to make manies in cashgames but sometimes you get lucky.

Learn about pot odds implied odds and dont play too many tables at first so you know when its mathematically smart to fold and when its good to call and go on or when its good toshoot double to triplebarrels etc.. Get to know the regulars and their playing tendencies. make a lot of notes on showdowns and who is agressive and who is not. After a while you get to know the regs and fish and have them on ranges (though thats the toughone on fishes) and then its a lot more easier to play against them and take advantage on their weaknesses.

GLto the tables and keep sharp..welcome to the darkside that is ca$hgames

i dont like me call on the flop i aggree it was mathamatically poor
he min reraise's me to 48c and i have an up and down on the turn.
so i dont think even with bad implied odds i can call with immediate odds on the turn.

trouble hands in the sence that im not sure if i took the optimum / correct line with them.
and i really want to get my game to a point where i can play 100NL profitably. so i want all the basics down to a tee.

yeah im going to have to work on concentrating on player tendancies and ranges but honestly. i think i will be doing that from 5/10 uppwards but the play on this is pretty damn spewy and when i try and find tendencies it can be difficult.

1. am i right to bet out here in the long term even against 3 other opponents?
2. and would it be the right line if it was just a flush draw without the gutshot?

this hand left a little sick in my mouth. i hadnt been on the table for long so didn't know the player would call so light. i felt the ace was the perfect card to bluff because i felt he had a 1 pair type hand on the flop.

Im pretty sure I played this correct but it was a pretty sick one that lost me almost 200bigs the table was limping every hand.

can/should i fold on the river? his shove on the river on that board shows so much strength and i feel like im beat. but i talked myself into saying it was a cooler if he had me.
