lol tbh, i cant believe how much this thread took off. i was half expecting it to totally fail, and half expecting it to just be casually updated every week or so. if i had known it was going to be getting this many views, have this many pages, and be getting mentioned in magazines, id have put a lot more effort into it from the start!

1) i dont think you should have a set "strategy". it just doesnt make logical sense to do so since every opponent plays totally different and therefore you shouldnt have an independant way of playing.
2) you should worry more about trying to find good tables to sit at rather than a specific strategy. by good tables, i also mean good seats, so you have position on who you want. it might be more ego-boosting to beat regs, but realistically most of your money should be coming from fish. its maybe ignorant of me to assume, but i dont think it would be too hard to find 10nl tables that play weaker than some 5nl tables if you looked around the lobby/ joined a waiting list

And if he bets the Turn, are we shoving or calling, and then calling the River? I guess shoving prevents any tough decisions?

dont post results because is obviously quite influencing - your opinion of this hand would be totally different if he showed u AQ when u called on the river.
also you didnt tell me anything about your opponent, so it kind of hard to analyse since this hand is obviously super opponent specific as his range changes greatly on every street depending on various stats.
i am intrigued why you think that 99 (or any 1 pair hand worse than QJ) would a) check-raise the flop, and b) bet the river, and c) call a shove on the river
