fyp.
seriously, i found 200nl and 400nl players actually didnt have a clue what i was doing for a long enough time for me to run disgustingly good against their dumb calling ranges.
This was on stars too, and the time it took to adapt was laughable, for players who think they play goot.
Also, ir provides a small winner at certain stakes with a larger edge in most circumstances. I wouldalso suggest tht actually watching the games players sit in will perhaps provide them with info too. It shouldnt be about 'not losing more money' its a tactic to confuse opponents.

no but youll improve your bankroll. Same old arguement about do you play on stars or party.

(For myself I am currently raising my regular 6 max hands incl. more pp's (+-5 bb), I almost always c bet(90% of the time 40-80% of the pot) & am often pot commited at that point.)
I am having a lot of success with it at the moment, just looking for ways to improve it.
you're playing too many hands (im not kidding either, if you only have 20bbs. It all about tp, not pps)
