Sooooo, i just finished small stakes hold 'em, and I honestly don't know why I ever tried to play online limit poker before I did. I was still winning (thanks everyone who sucks more than me), but obviously not maximizing my profit. Lurking around here helped my game a lot, and Smash's little experiment, though just an homage to SSHE, also helped, but now I feel i am ready to truly dominate pokerrooms tiny limit tables. And soon i will have a computer that is not a mac, which will be quickly outfitted with pokertracker so i can write another diary about how i never should have played without that. And of course I will be able to play somewhere other than pokerroom. In short, thanks to everyone who posts (intelligently) here, and to anyone reading this who hasn't read SSHE, do it, do it, do it. Once the new comp is up and running, be ready for my (ironically) horribly played hands. (I think this has vague strategic overtones, and I try to stay away from general, so hopefully this is permitted to stay where it is.)

I've actually taken a bit of a sabbitacal from Limit HE while I read SSHE. I mean, I was profitible before........but wow. I just started the post flop section and figured it wise to give it a full read. Just kind of using the downtime to improve my 7 stud game. Only tough part is intergrating all you've read into your play.......

I don't even pretend to comprehend everything i've read, it obviously warrants a few re-reads, but yes, just small changes and i can see so many places i just butchered hands weak/tighting it up or being aggressive with nothing to try and win without showing down. I look forward to further refining my game.

Very good post. What's your ID on pokerroom? I play the .25/.5 limit tables on the room, and I'd rather not run into the 1 other person there who has read SSHE 8) I've got a list of some of pokerroom's fishiest at those limits, if you're interested...Oh, and if you're on right now, hop onto table Bata. One spot left, 78% seeing the flop, nice n juicy 8) I had a nice 20 BB upswing in 1 hour thanks to them

SSHE once finished should be kept in the bathroom.
