especially since they really do not need to pay a dime to figure out how to beat micro NL poker....
I happily help people at 25nl and below for free, because honestly there is not much that they need to really know to beat those stakes....
so for 30$/hr I can tell them to b/f a whole lot... lol not hard
and making a big deal of moving to SSNL (which in all honesty I do not know your interpretation of SSNL... 50nl+? is that ssnl to you?)
you tried to make a well post.... that is kinda making a big deal out of it IMO... I do not blame you I was excited when I moved to 50nl... just as I was excited when I moved to 100nl (i really do not know what you interpret as SSNL) but you made a well post? comeone... im pretty sure you have to begged by a lot of people before your well post would be accepted...
So go help them for free.
If I'm taking time out of my schedule to sweat a person, I'd like to get paid for it. It's a service. If you think it's not worth your money, then don't take it. What's your problem?
Considering $30 is less than a BI at his stakes (50NL) I don't see how that's not fair. My hourly is higher. I just happen to like to verbalize my thought process, which would help my game also, and I can accomplish that in a sweat session.
I consider SSNL by how 2+2 is set up aka 100NL+
IT IS A BIG DEAL. I anticipated I wouldn't visit uNL much, and I wanted to give something back. The things I learned while I was struggling for a very long time breaking even, not knowing what I was doing wrong was incredibly frustrating. I didn't want people to spend the same amount of time as I did, so I wanted to highlight the important parts that would help people improve faster. I don't see how trying to help people improve faster is seen as "LOL I'M SO GOOD LOOK @ ME" People have made a ton of similar posts whether it be Pooh-bah or just a general thread about "common mistakes" or what have you, but that's not getting the same sh
it this is. I'm actually quite confused and offended. (especially with big berating me saying how terrible I am)
I'm not saying I'm the best uNL player. There are a ton of people that sustain a higher winrate than I do. However, I do know I crush the games.
FWIW I already explained (for the 10481204th time) I didn't realize "The Well" was a big deal, and I pm'd a mod before posting it and he said it would be fine.
This is the last time I do this. I have absolutely no reason to explain or justify my posts or actions to any of you. I'm going to bed. Night brew.
