i dont call myself an nl1k reg it's not where i get my most hands in, and not only because the 100bb tables are rarely running. I do play nl200-nl1k stakes, depending on what's running and how i am feeling, how i am playing.
I feel no shame in limiting myself to 200 or 400 when i am after a couple days of drinking or if I havent played a couple days and feel rusty.

that's the second time i was lucky enough to have him, I was sitting at the table already when he joined in, I am just not bumhunting the lobby enough to get on waitlists fast enough, so i just dont play him much

no shame in it. I'm in it for the money and sometimes its smarter to stay lower

first time he flush over flush me with Q3s

Spoiler:
hurley, spoiler tags are also proven attention grabbers

if none of this works for you, single out a poster and start berating them and calling them bad at poker - these tips will definitely make your posts more high profile

for all you know he just has some ******o aces or 2pair
weak tight curse you.

i jsut thought his range is so narrow therefore i could call and he would check it back on turn and i would win in a nice pot. but the 4x c/r may be should have told me he was playing for stacks.

i am right tho right. his range is narrow?

posting about torrent sites/pirated material is against 2+2 TOC. Don't do it any more.

people (me included) get way too caught up in high variance spots at the micros

well there is no way of knowing without a read on the player

maybe he only c/r the nuts, we don't know

but some random donk, he could have top pair, a slowplayed overpair, two pair, a set, a flush draw, a straight draw, overs+gutter

all that stuff represents a fairly wide range, and if he keeps firing you are in a tough spot

Sorry, I didn't know posting about torrents was against the rules. Won't do it again.

regarding putting yourself in marginal spots, it's something that i think i lost sight of and have been putting myself in way too often. Citizenwind's post in ssnl is about this concept.

i played quite a bit like Wizard during my upswing and won a lot of pots against players in marginal spots but the opposite happens when the rungood ends. that 87s hand that Wizard posted where he backdoors a flush against KK is a perfect example and i used to post hands like that. in the end it would be way +EV to just avoid these spots altogether for the double up against the next fish in line. Incidentally, the last 10+ times i have flopped a flush draw in a 3b pot and gotten it in i have failed to hit. Yeah, bitch and moan because i run bad but I didn't need to get in that spot to begin with because villains were all reasonably tight and i didn't really have the history to warrant the flat.

no offense to you, but i hate when people talk about my game and say that they used to play like me when they dont know how i play at all and just assume because i post some bluffs and dumb hands sometimes.

That is such a dry board, almost everything that the villain reps beside a gutter and 7x has you beat. If your going to c/f to a bet on the river might as well fold here.
