Nice going at $7s, I found them a lot easier to beat than $3.50s because of the reduced rake
btw i liked your concept on keogh blog, will analyze it a bit deeper and implement into my game, will see how it goes

this
Play more hands, in both positions.
Whilst Alvis is right in that you won't be exploited for being too nitty, it's still not a good idea to allow your opponent to instantly profit by minraising, which is what happens when you play back vs it under 50% of the time, so yeah, be looser on the BB.
SB, since our opponents aren't exploiting just play every hand. Limp your trash and just LCB almost 100% and we pick up so many small pots where we win t20 rather than lose t10. From a quick calculation our SB EVbb/100 is 5.5, which is still too low. To put it into perspective, my SB EVbb/100 on $7s was 17bb/100, and for all limits from $7s to $60s it's just over 11bb/100.
Compared to by BB EVbb/100 of 4bb/100 over all limits, this just goes to show how important positional advantage is. Make full use of this by playing as many hands as possible smile
finished homegame NL10 cash. ended up +10GBP bad cards overall and one huge mistake. ♠_evil:
decided to play storm again this weekend. left 1206th place +78$
openshoved from MP w A9s 12.5BB deep , got a call from CO w KK. WP
Meanwhile... Small challange
NL2SH slowly clearing bonus. Was looking for NL4, but can`t find in poker770 which is weird. Straight from NL2 jump to NL10? is ipoker crazy? 
EDIT: YES I FOUND NL4 FILTERS WERE MESSED UP =]
i don`t get it, why are my ops doing like that...

i`m kinda passive with hypers lately, with which i`m not satisfied... will not reach gold level anyways this month.
Small challenge from 50 to 140 atm (including all bonuses deposited 30$)
You could start playing the $1 or $2 HU super turbos on ipoker aswell , they are kinda of sluggish & boring compared to Stars hypers but fairly soft & you can rake quite well with them for your bonus clearing.
good idea, but what if i can beat them as a breakeven only due to high rake? Then i would get earning only from bonus..
But i will check them thanks for advice!

I heard the rake is high, but yes i only play there for PS points b/c the software is so shit when compared to Stars ♦...... - you can get gold by playing about 20 $2 per day for the month.
Its a shame braminc is no longer making his HU Hyper vids for PS, I liked them.
couple Lags on ipoker network playing speed poker:
-- when i click sit out button, it is not actually sitting me out but keeps dealing cards. (Ok maybe they wanna deal me all positions in exact amount and only then sit me out, but after next dealt hand i see my sit out checked box is unchecked again!)
-- other LaG sometimes when i minraise pre, I see i made 4x openraise on table (but from my stack goes away only 2BBs, if i am facing 3bet in this spot i see correct amount i need to call, but on table still stays 4BB number!)
Overall HAHA! 
soon some updates. Now expereimenting on CO openraise sizing (trying to openraise 2,5BB will see how it works for me, BU minraise works signficantly great)
Needs to work on BB position, since i`m loosing a lot! SB positions is better than good in profit terms.

happens alot yeh, dunno why it doesn't have wait till BB. iPoker software is so shit its funny. Even the sound effects make me laugh they are so bad (the new beta sounds on Stars are great imo)
Haha sitting in a court for about 2 hours. Crossed red light in full speed of 49cm scooter in front of plice. What a lame from me... ♠_confused: ♠_confused:
