because you always call me when i'm bluffing

and you can't beat 200nl cause you always call everyone else when they aren't bluffing.

why do I insist on trying to bluff players off hands who don't fold:

Poker Stars, $2/$4 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 9 Players
LeggoPoker Hand History Converter

UTG+2: $812.80
MP1: $394
MP2: $400
CO: $342.55
BTN: $627.70
Hero (SB): $406.40
BB: $267.95
UTG: $405
UTG+1: $445

Pre-Flop: 8

dealt to Hero (SB)
UTG raises to $16, 4 folds, CO calls $16, BTN calls $16, Hero calls $14, BB folds

Flop: ($68) 9

(4 Players)
Hero checks, UTG bets $28, 2 folds, Hero calls $28

Turn: ($124) 2

(2 Players)
Hero checks, UTG bets $28, Hero raises to $100, UTG calls $72

River: ($324) 6

(2 Players)
Hero bets $262.40 and is All-In, UTG calls $261 and is All-In

Results: $846 Pot ($3 Rake)
Hero showed 8 8 (two pair, Eights and Deuces) and LOST (-$405 NET)
UTG showed 9 T (two pair, Nines and Deuces) and WON $843 (+$438 NET)

You'll laugh at this but I tried your idea of sitting at tables that were short or starting new ones last night and you are right, it attracts people who suck worse than I do at 50NL. It's a solid theory imo. I may never sit at a full table again.

I've been doing it too and it's definitely +EV.
As long as your comfortable playing shorthanded though, b/c they can stay 3-6players for a while.

Starting new ones lets me pick PL too, which is awesome b/c PL is ez.

This looks like solid value betting to me.

Sick cooler.

Are you leveling me calling this a bluff?

I'm happy if they stay HU. The players that sit are short stacked and terrible. Nice combination imo. I won probably a bi last night playing 2-4 handed. I would love to discuss some game dynamics of short handed play with someone with more experience. Most of my experience comes from SNG's

Lol I think I am the one being leveled here. But I was trying to make it look like solid value betting even though I was sure he had me beat (calling check-raise on turn). However, I was also sure he was pretty weak (and he was) and thought I had repped the boat perfectly. Apparently a pair of nines weak kicker was just too good to let go!

I wasn't level'ing.

This looks like value betting to me, but maybe I play bizarrely.

In other news, I don't like "bluffing" for the sake of bluffing on this board.

Yeah, what is this doing in micro-stakes? Last I saw he was running a consecutive 6-figure months streak. Mods please move?
