600NL craziness

So I decided to play outside my roll for a bit today(only have like 12 buyins or something) and play some 600NL. These people are absolutely insane. They'll raise up to 6xbb with absolute crap on a consistent basis. I really don't see how you deal with the crazy lags at this level. Here are a couple hands from today. I dropped about $800 to begin with, then I made back about $300 and played some 400NL later to make back about another $300 to end up down about $200 for the day. I don't think I'll venture up here again for quite sometime.


Hand #1:
Do you push this one or see the turn and then push if its not a scary draw completing card? The board was really draw heavy so I didn't really expect a call...

Hand #2:
Okay wtf on this one this guy's raising J2s? This hand isn't really up for analysis I was just shocked at his bad play. Is this normal at this level?

a loose aggressive player loves to rep a straight or flush, think about hand 3 depending on your read

nuts it hink im gonna skip 600nl when i get there

I'm going straight to 2000 NL. 600 sucks

Yes stay away from this game as long as possible. I tried playing it again yesterday underbankrolled and on tilt after losing to quad aces in the 500k gaurunteed on Stars. I dropped about 3k. Off to 400NL to rebuild and try to regain control of my emotions and bankroll...

Some brutal hands.

I found this one hard to believe. Someone raises to 5xbb, gets 3 callers and no one bets the flop.
