hey all,

i am sort of "testing" something out here. i am a solid TAG-lite looking to maximize my winnings (who isnt?). i feel i miss a lot of value and spots to semi-bluff. yet, i also get a bit "frisky" it seems at the wrong times.

i dont feel i have a lot of "leaks," but i'd be overly arrogant if i didnt realize i have some for sure. hopefully, some of you can help me spot them.

the format...to blend the strategy and HHs together by giving my "thought process" and "reads" of both the hand and situation. so, you know EXACTLY where i am coming from when i make a move.

background...have played up as high as 100NL with a winning record, but barely. back in the bonus days for us in the US, i had that backing me up. a nit by trade, i dropped to 10NL for awhile to "open up" my game a bit. learned a great deal, and like many others soundly beat that level, but i also think that is where i picked up some "bad habits" that i need to get rid of like...soft-betting, refusing to raise pf with lots of limpers, pushing in marginal situations...all stuff i'd like to re-incorporate to my game.

i will try to keep the off-topic stuff to a minimum, as this is not a blog, but an attempt to KILL the 25NL level (both fr and 6max), and move up higher.

thanks in advance to all that take the time to respond.
