I call that everytime.

I know how you are feeling man. I am in the exact same situation.
I play NL100 and NL200 on the Ongame network, and it is insane.

All I can tell you is to stick with it; it's just variance.

This is how my week has gone there:

Last weekend I dropped about $1700 on mostly NL200.
Cashed out $1500 to force myself to play NL100.

Monday-Wednesday I made $3000.

Thursday-Friday I lost about $900.

...and I only play about 1500 hands a day.


The swings are insane on this site, so make sure you have the BR for it.

Also, remember that most of these players are just playing their cards and have no idea what you did 30 hands ago, so building an image isn't really that necessary.

I've noticed that these players never fold the flop, so try to c-bet a lot less, especially on boards such as TJ8 with 2 diamonds etc...
But, when you do hit a set or 2 pair overbet the pot.
My overbets get called so much it's disgusting. Sometimes they think I am bluffing and will bluff me on the turn. Other times once they call my flop bet they believe that they are pot committed now and play for stacks with their pair of 2's.

These guys will call down with any pair. Remember that.
So DONT bluff them!!
Even if they are min-betting the whole way through, or betting $3 into a $20 pot.
Yesterday I raised this donk's Min-bet on the turn and river; on the turn I raised it to $15, and then $20 on the river because I thought he was drawing and he missed...wrong, he had midpair no kicker!

Also, they really hate folding the river, so if you think you have the best hand PUSH! Dont just value bet the river, they will call any bet with any pair.

Well goodluck at the tables!

Oh and if you really want to you can go back to FR for good, and leave all the fish for me
I won't mind at all.
