River is As and hero put villian in for his last $3.50. Villain folds.

Questions -

1. Can I expect to see players this bad regularly at 50NL Rush?

2. Did I milk this fish for all he was worth with with donk bets or am I an idiot for not betting 1/2 pot on the flop and putting him all-in on the turn?

3. How big of a jump in skill level is there between 50NL, 100NL, and 200NL rush poker?

1) Sometimes..just play and see it

2) Vs some oppos a bet/shove action isn't so profitable as min donkbets during the streets..but it depends..

3) I've played thousands (close to 300k) of hands @ NL50 and just a couple of k @ NL100 rush and i've not found out many difference in terms of skill/regs ecc..

Thanks for the post Tom

1) There are definitely many bad players at 50nl rush. But for a similar amount of hands, you will earn more money at normal tables.

2)I think you should have gone for 1/2 pot on the flop and shove the turn. With such a line, you get more value out of draws obviously.

3) I think there is clearly a difference between 50nl and 100nl and then a difference between 100nl and 200nl. What really changes is aggression: the higher you play, the more aggressive your opponents become. Therefore, the games become tougher.

Just shove turns against these experts. He will still call with loads of draws, which he will obviously fold on the river.
