Hey everybody,
I have been playing 2NL for a couple months now and feel like I am playing pretty solid. From everything I've read table selection can be the single most important factor to improving win rates however playing with the fish seems to be causing me a lot of grief. Seems like I keep getting it in with good equity and getting wholloped by crazy draws on a regular basis. Down 5 buy in's as of this morning ><
Here's a perfect example of what I am talking about. Did I somehow misplay this? Mind you the fish on the button was playing 56/44/5.
