This deserves to get seen by a few more people. From our resident Stupidhead...v1.27Feral Cow Poker Hand ConverterHEM/Poker Stars NL Hold'em $1.00/$2.00 - 6 playersButton: $237.98SB: $200.00BB: $60.00

I remember when this thread was all about how bad KJ was at 3betting

He's probably not flatting KJ's raise otf if he had a2. Besides, A2 is such a small portion of his range here, we are never ever ever ever ever ever ever folding the turn. People are stupid, they do

so I'm starting to game select and it makes poker so much easier. I read some post by aejones on 2+2 a few months ago that was like, "Don't be afraid to face your limit's best players. Sit down at any table irrespective of the regulars in order to improve. Don't be like leatherass and BUMHUNT." And it's like wtf why was I ever listening to that? What a stupid crock of shit, play at whatever table has the most fish to build the roll quickly.

agreeno egosjust profitsI did hear in a video at one point someone mention, before taking a shot at the next level to play a few sessions with the good regs at your limit or whatev, so that you go from tough regs at 10nl, to fish at 25nl or whatev... I dunno

Nashtak, is that all at 5nl or 2nl?6max or FR?
Mainly 2NL FR (shortstacking 8-tables)A decent amount of 2NL FR deepstacked (4-tables) and SH (2 to 4 tables)... the bungee jumping part was some 5NL deepstacked that i'm not too proud of... lost patience vs a handful of lagtards.''Thank you for attempting to make a credit card deposit with Full Tilt Poker. Unfortunately due to situations out of our control, not all credit cards can be processed at this time.'' (Can't post the screenshot because VVCap doesn't seem to be supported on this board)Anyone else is currently having this issue on Fulltilt (can't post? Trying to deposit $30 with a mastercard so i can unlock the first deposit bonus before march 10th then the fast-50 bonus. What do you guys use to withdraw and deposit on both FullTilt and PokerStars?

Yeah, in the US we have trouble getting money on FTP i thinkI got a prepaid visa giftcard and it worked when I first deposited, picked it up at a gas stationAnd you are using different strategy for 2nl SS and deep, right?I figured it'd be easy to deposit as a canuck...

Yes, i'm much tighter when SSing. A VP of around 8 to 10, raising a lot and getting it in by the turn. Been running almost as bad as i possibly could in the past 10k hands or so.

elaborate more on your table selecting plz
nothing fancy, just looking at avg post size or % players to the flop. play 2-3 orbits and see what transpires. if there are loose passives or aggrotards to my right then it's a lock. if someone's 3betting me a lot and cutting into my profit I just get up. if I can't tell I stay for a couple of more orbits; too many rocks, later. last night and today I played w/so many huge fish that I cannot believe I'm settling on tables w/4-5 regs. again, I know these guys are exploitable, but having an edge isn't enough; we should try to find the biggest edges possible.nashtak, I deposit using eChecks and they work fantastic. at least they did like 8 months ago when I last put money online.

I just push my stack in the middle for the first hand, just to show 'em whose boss. Leak or genius?

I just use my Visa check card that's directly connected to my bank account... no problems there and I think it's pretty standard nowadays
It's only for US citizens, right?

What was the hand around the 3200 mark? 700ish pot?
I just flopped the nuts consecutively on every table. Not quite but in like a 3 minute spanQQ > JT on 589JhhAA > J8 on T735Q (lol)QQ > AKAnd I assume a number of smaller pots
std poker player - win a bunch, ignore; lose one pot, running awful.
This is me

Yeah, there are very few exceptions to this. I'm actually at one right now, where I find grinding hands/tables and getting as much knowledge and skills is more important to me than the best winrate. But I'm in a fairly unique situation.

I didn t3bet pf because my note on villain said "tight ep"that probably means I've seen him open/4bet w/some frequency...plus I hate 3betting from MP.my other note is "station" which makes me think i put it there because he likes to call instead of bet..hence foldFull Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (5 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.comHero (MP) ($10)Button ($10)SB ($12.20)BB ($10.28)UTG ($10.87)Preflop: Hero is MP with Q :jh, Q :3hUTG bets $0.40, Hero calls $0.40, 3 foldsFlop: ($0.95) J :qh, 3 :ts, 10 :4h(2 players)UTG bets $0.70, Hero calls $0.70Turn: ($2.35) 3 :club:(2 players)UTG bets $1.70, Hero calls $1.70River: ($5.75) 7 :5c(2 players)UTG bets $8.07 (All-In), Hero foldsTotal pot: $5.75 | Rake: $0.38
