Default maybe


maybe I used to be but I got this bankroll by moving up levels one by one and im not about to lose it too some stupid shit like that. I agree with you totally that 6 months if I took a hit and lost $400 i would go to 3/6 and try to win it back. I can honestly say I would go down no problem at all!

not arguing with you at all and no im not even close to a great player but I have seen improvement and that is all I want. I feel real comfortable at this level and plan on staying here for a long long time no matter what my bankroll is.

Brian,
Are you playing stictly limit, NL, or switching it up?

I am considering giving NL ring a try. but I can feel that i would go in a bit unsure of myself and I know that can be a recipe for disaster right there. $25 NL tables, hmm, do you all think I should give it a shot. How soft, aggressive, whatever are these at Party?

Default hey


I play mostly limit...im not good enough yet to put that much money in a single hand in NL games yet. Like if I had 2nd bets possible flush I dont mind paying $4 to see if you have ace flush but I dont know about paying $50 to see it. I did play some NL tables to get roll where it was but I played them VERY TIGHT with my origional $25 deposit. I have over a grand now but alot of it was luck...a little skill...and some stupid people (besides me).

Does anyone else find it extremely annoying how in every single one of Brian's posts, he feels the need to mention that he's not good, he's no expert, the advice he's about to give is "prolly" wrong, etc, etc?

Sorry. It's just wearing on me, Brian. We get it, already. You're a bad player who has been on a rush. We get it.

Default well


well dont concider myself a bad player but also dont want someone to jump down my throat when I give wrong advice. I'am on a rush but its not like im playing bad cards and getting lucky or making all my draws. I'am making the most out of my good hands and dealing with the outdraws and comming out on top. I do think when I first came to the forum I was a terrible player and I do think the advice here helped me alot. I have never had a week long rush so I have to be doing something right. Dont want to be called a fibber so actully 4 day rush.

I am entrigued.
You went from horrible player to a huge run.

I really want to see how this turns out.

It's kind of like the reason people watch Nascar....
Is it to watch the cars go round and round? No.
I think people watch Nascar for the spectacular Crashes.

OK.
Just sat down to watch Brian and I am already shaking my head.
He decides to go for a cigarette and promptly sits out.
As he was 3-tabling this cost him 7 free hands.

Better than Nascar.

I've been thinking this for the past week. I didn't want to say anything because I want to see how long he continues it. I imagine that he'll stop, just because you've made mention of it.

... not that I know anything.
