Here you go Rogue!

Sept has started well for me,up 5BI's already, should be a good month for some bonuses as well, with at least $25 in take 2 bonus's and hopefully another $30's or so of my deposit bonus to clear. Plus i'm going to be macking at least 1BI per week in rakeback now that i'm back to grinding FR.

All in all, would be an awesome month for me if i wasnt going to afghan on the 21st, but hey ho, should be back for the 10th of Nov anyways and then the grind can continue, or at least i hope it can, don't know how much i'm going to want to play poker, or be allowed to play poker! when i've got a crying baby to look after lol.

Official start of thread.

Jake you still playing 6-max?

yeah I am playing 6max still man

Lets all have a great september. Maybe this is the month I stick at 25nl or maybe I should just skip it and go to 50 nl

It's been very up and down so far in september but i'm getting comfortable now. Take2 should help establish a bankroll on FT for future play while I focus on my bonus on Pokerstars. I'm getting used to full ring which is probably slowing me down, thinking about going with 6-max but we'll see how it goes.

So how is your ultra nit style working at 6-max?

I run at 22/19 and 3bet 7% at 6max so I changed lol

This is 4/6 tabling which allows me to make more plays and pick out spots which obviously is alot looser and it works ok so far.

People at 5NL keep opening UTG and folding to a re-raise which is starting to tilt me. Have they all started to realise that it looks strong and are doing it with less than Ak QQ+ or are they just bad? Or do they not have specific ranges at this level? Maybe I give them too much credit but I have to re-raise withh AA in that spot surely.

Less likely they are noticing your tight 3betting range than it is they are just opening loosely. You'll find some players that open more hands utg than any other position, guess its their version of first in gusto lol, but if people really are folding to your 3bets...you can always 3bet more often.

I don't have any stats but I 3-bet quite often mainly in position. Hands like KQ JQ I can 3-bet. They fold enough to make it profitable whether its pre or post flop with a c-bet. So I don't think it's that, they must just think I have QQ+ everytime I do which to be honest I wouldn't be suprised at this level.

Oh Jesus. When Jurn is more aggro than I am at 6-max there is a problem

Still working out for you? I'm hoping to have a big month at 25 6-max but we'll see how it goes. Fwiw I run at 21/16-17 and only 3bet like 2.5%

In thread for a place to fap

No thread for Sept until Daks creates one? And she's anti-cash!

I;m gonna play a lot of 10 min sessions on Tilt this month. Like, 25 of them.

yeah its working well so far, going to win $300 at 25nl then move to 50nl.

Thanks Dakota! I do enjoy this thread.

My goal this month is to surpass my 50K hands last month and make GoldStar at 10nl. Making a little money in the process would be nice, too.

You could have started it, Rogue. I see fpp bonuses are back, $8/500 fpp and $40/2500fpp. I have a few k fpps sitting around, but I don't really feel like playing enough this month to get silver to qualify.

I would just try and learn the game and basics solidly RR dont try and bust out 50k hands 12 tabling!
If you have followed this thread since it started I have always played loads of hands and tables and can say from experience it is not the way to play the micro's!
Try and just improve your game, I have been there and played loadsa hands and its not worth it.

Hey b!tches! havent been around here in a bit.

just posted a 25nl 6max study group so if your interested check it out. need 2 more players.

I should have -- next time I won't ask for someone to come to the rescue.
Thanks for the info on cash bonuses -- I always thought the ones they had were cash bonuses, but I guess you have to clear them after purchase. $40 for 2500 fpps is better than $50 for 5000 fpps anyway!

And I was thinking of 24 tabling to 100K this month. But, you're right, I should slow down and try to get better at hand reading and finding good spots. Need to work on tabling selection, too.

Up by around 7BIs in 10NL since the month started. Been losing a ton on 10NL but after a couple of days I was able to adapt all the aggressive on this limit. Hooray!

Anyway Guys, what's the right BR for playing 25NL? I mean playing 4 tables.

at least 500 is standard BRM regardless of tables. Especially if you've never played that limit before.

Thank you for your response. I think I will wait till I have around 1k$ to make it safe for me. or I can start adding 1 25NL table when I got to around 750$

Man your good starting at $575-$600. That's 24Bi which should be good, but the 4 bi can serve as a bit of a "learning cushion" and if you lose some of those you can drop back down no prob

So, for september I have decided to move to limit on stars. Playing .25/.50 FL.

Up 116 BB so far.

Also, anybody play at Aced poker?

I had a spare gift card lying around so deposited there. 33% rakeback an d a 100% first deposite bonus. Not a ton of games, but the 25NL heads up games look mighty soft.

Yea was planning like 1 table of 25NL then 3 tables of 10NL. Then move up gradually if im winning at 25NL. But as of now I better stick to 10NL and increase my BR for 25NL. Good luck to me. And Im expecting to hit silverstar this month

Yea you can just bumhunt 25NL for a while to get used to it. Biggest difference for me was you get played back at with pfr's more and the players are just a little bit better. Other than that it just takes a few times of losing a stack to get adjusted to losing $25 instead of $10

going to take my 3rd shot at fiddy but first shot at fiddy 6max

This is the hard one. Losing 25$ compare to 10$ when you got stack off is just the worst especially even you have a 20Bi rule. Sure it will hit your BR hard. That's why im planning to play 25nl. When I have at least 750$ to make it safe.

This is quite nitty man, I'm going for 20BI's when i move up to 10nl and 23BI's when i move up to 25nl, setting a 3BI stoploss on each move up stage, i reckon as long as you set yourself a number of BI's as a stoploss there's no need to build the roll so big before attempting to move up imo.

imo 20-25 bi is fine until you move up to 100nl then i want 30
