I wouldn't say a lot, maybe once every other session. It works very well v a lot of the passive abc regs at the micros as does bluff raising a lot of turns on coordinated low boards. I also play very laggy compared to most regulars at these stakes. Besides, I needed something interesting to call my blog haha.

Haha don't think I'm going to be playing NL200 for a looong time.
Hello NL10...
Seven stacks under EV, hardly connected with any boards all day, coolers in huge pots, only spewed once and didn't play my A game after it (1770 to 2100). Apart from that just ran horribly. Not rolled for NL25 anymore. In other news I got platinum back, will be useful at Nl10 haha, also made a cool $11 from FPP's.
Standard squeeze pre, this guy loves to float and I squeeze a ton so have to bet twice. Don't think there's any other option on river?

This is the hand I messed up, this guy squeezes a LOT and thought I was committed when he shoved but don't think I am at all. Need to win 40% to call and don't unless he knows I will backraise a lot and shove his random A/Kx or pairs. Spew...

So yeah back to NL10.
I am busto.
Last 40k hands cash.
Obviously haven't been playing my best throughout all of last 20k but still. It's just over $400 under, probably 2/3 NL10 1/3 NL25.
Last week of Sit and gos, have run like absolute shit in terms of getting RB from my FPPs as well, probably cashed ~15% when i normally cash 35-40%.

Thanks for the encouragement Static, but it was too painful. After playing some some NL2 Zoom yesterday I just found it incredibly frustrating. Trying to hand read and get value when ranges consist of anything from ace rag, gutshots, bottom pairs, pure air and then the stone cold nuts, all played via random min raises, donk bets and overshoves was driving me insane haha.
So anyway decided to get a short term stake to play NL10 where at least I know what's going on. Big thanks to Bigniux, stake is 50k hands NL10 zoom, shouldn't take too long as I'm still off work till next week so can put in some decent hours.
Yea, I feel ya ... Getting a stake at this point is the sexiest alternative ofc, good luck

That is just no way to talk to a fish. I was a real fish I would feel ofended and leave the table 
GL on the tables!
Haha thanks for posting that, I apolgise, just very tilted. Just finished up another session $50 under EV.
My last month at the tables.
Haven't made a profit at showdown in 15,000 hands, 3500bb under all in EV, so 35 stacks.
Some hands to illustrate.
Villain is a loose regular who 3bets a ton v me. I just shoved flop as stack sizes were awkward and I figured I can actually rep AA like this. I also have very good equity vs everything but a set which is pretty unlikely and wanted to get it in while i had it. Obviously get it in as favourite and no help.

This guy is a massive aggrofish, 41/31/5. I wanted to fold but can you lay down aces full of kings when you need to win 30% against a fish?

Well I decided to start playing again after about a long layoff and hit up the NL25 Zoom tables yesterday.
First question I have to ask myself is why the hell would you think anything would be any different? Ten stacks under EV in 8k hands, something like 14bb/100 lol.
Biggest losing hands where I got it in bad:
Wanted to fold both of these, first one I know he has JJ but can I really fold this to a fish here?

Hand that I messed up the most, don't think I was thinking clearly at this point. Not sure if its bad shipping this or not. BU is huge fish capable of showing up with AA/AK as well as total trash, SB is nitty reg.

Back to NL10 I go after two days haha, love it :f_grin:.
Same shit different stake?
Played NL10 for an hour or so, another 5 stacks under EV lol. Last 500 hands obviously getting bored and not concentrating because my red/EV line tanks.
Hands I got it in badly with, KK/QQ v AA in squeezed pots and set over set, love it.
So yeah NL10 is going great. One thing I have noticed is I need to stop trying to push people off hands, they miss so many value bets compared to people at NL25 that I think they have nothing whereas they're check calling top pair etc. Also only the nittiest regs will fold to turn/river scarecard aggression, everyone else just goes into check call mode.
I'm now 20 buy ins under EV for the month in 13.4k hands, something like a 15bb/100 difference, getting tiring.
Just a word of friendly advice. Your overall all in EV line is BE or slightly loosing. This means you are not a winning player. Stressing out about running below EV is probably not your primary concerne right now.
