smackinYaup, advice for party NL $25...?
Hey man,
Up until recently I had been playing mostly $5-$10 SnGs on Ultimate BEt. I did pretty well, definately profitable, but ended up losing back some profit in a 2 week bad run (bad play + bad cards). Anyway, I got the instantbankroll promiton (which if you don't know is a free $75 on party poker) and have been playing Party Poker NL $25 tables for the past few days.
I played the 6 handed tables, and after about 6 hours of play (spread out over 3 days, dont have my own computer so I can't be on THAT long at once) I brought my initial $75 up to $240. I was happy obviously, and have to admit that I was catching some nice cards.
My plan was to basically play mostly ABC poker, straight forward value betting for the most part... and LAGGing it up from the button or cut-off a little bit. This worked pretty well as I won about 6 buy ins in a relatiely short period.
Since then, my last 2 hours I have been pretty cold carded and leaked away $40. I think I've been trying to make things happen too much with mediocre cards, and in any case the bottom line is that my last couple of sessions have been negative. I'm still glad to be up so much from my initial $75... but am just looking for some pearls of wisdom as I know you kicked ass at this level.
I know you have HH posted all over this joint, but if you could summarize some of your main points/philosophies about the game at this level I'd appreciate getting it battered into my head again.
thanks
