Hey JD why not go back to what you were doing when you running super hot ?If I recall you played 6max or full ringback then?

You raise good points. Not too much new material though. We all know it ain't '06. If it was there wouldn't be locked threads in the strat section front page. Live IS so much softer than live. I raised that point in the 2009 in review thread as well as the notion that people who used to profit online (me) are going to make more playing 1-table live games. TP didn't want to believe that. It's true though. It's demoralizing, disheartening, and whatever else but it's true. Sucks a dick.

Curious to see your graph, for a point of reference, slp.

[Zybomb]

slp=wes obviously no?

[PShabi]

I guess.

I play at lower stakes $0.25/$0.50-$1/$2 NLHE, but lately it is exclusively the $50 buyin games. I think those games are still very beatable (and the $100 buyin game for that matter) but it requires more work away from the table and more pen on paper calculations. Even in the small stakes/micros, which depresses the hell out of me.

I love playing PLO but I suck at it and I end up an emotional wreck, which is fun.

I think the margins are smaller, so the variance is bigger, and the bankroll requirements are larger across the board. The hardest thing for to adjust are my new expectations and the effect of those reduced expectations on my game.


lol, I was just going to make that comment.

I never played full ring, and I've def done my best at HU, and that's what I've been playing. fwiw, I actually have a much better winrate at 5/10 than anything below it. Actually its not uncommon in the higher stakes guys to have much lower winrates at the smaller games. We rely so much on reads and how we think people perceive our hands and how we think they should play theirs, that playing against people that don't understand that stuff actually ends up hurting the winrate. Ideally I'd just deposit 20k and play 5/10 and stuff and, but depositing 20k is impossible it seems.

If some1, (maybe Wes) had 20k they could give me online if I just mailed them a 20k check, I'd do it in a heartbeat. As long as we can find a very secure way of doing it and everything. I hate having over 300k offline and not being able to play freakin 2/4 comfortably online. If I knew it'd be so damn hard to deposit I never would have cashed out so much
