Anyone else steup UP limits when clearing bonuses?
 

I usually play $25 NLHE at Party, mainly just because it is so damn easy. When clearing this bonus I figured I would step up to the $50 NL Game and play it out cause if I lose 3 buyins I lost my bonus and can drop back to the $25 game.

I am not doing NEARLY as well as I would like to be however I am not doing HORRIBLE. After 688 raked hands (600 were at this level) I am break even at the $50 NL Game.

This is my first time 4 tabling $50 NL and I am putting in these hours during the day so I am sure that makes some difference, and this weekend I should have a positive win rate. Atleast I hope, [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Are you clearing the raked hands any faster at 50NL? I didn't think they could be cleared much faster than they are at 25NL.

Bet more...

He would of called ANYTHING I bet on that turn the way he played the flop, LOL. That hand was inevitable except for my very questionable PF call.

To be honest, yes it DOES seem like I am clearing them faster. But I think alot of it is it is a new game with different play which makes it a bit more exciting and time go buy a little quicker.. The last 90 minutes 370 hands ... So not much faster than $25 NLHE. These are total hands BTW

Off to family stuff for the night, out of all nights a Friday?? Ughh

Even better reason to bet more. The fact that he won the hand is irrelevant... oh dang, there I go discussing poker in the zoo. Sorry about that.

At 25NL approximately 65% of hands are raked.

At 50NL that number is around 80%. If there's a flop the hand is raked.

$6 into a $21 pot and $12 into a $57 pot?

Re: Anyone else steup UP limits when clearing bonuses?
 

Underbet, correct, how did Iknow I was not walking into 2 pair, put youself in my spot......

Ancient how many damn hands have u put in and I pray those arent your real figures as you are SO FAR OFF BASE I can't even begin to elaborate.


"Edited Part" At no time did he show me during 'my' betting pattern I was not the best hand however my strategy didn't work so what do I know [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

BTW, Discuss away unless I am in the click or know "the right people" barring a very interesting hand it is tough to get the appropriate advice out of the proper forumns. So I end up here, would be nice to see the ZOO talking about less bonuses and Real Lfie Poker cams and MORE about real hands of poker - than again, this is the Zoo and I am about to be told by 200 people to go to other sub forumns of 2+ 2 and post this if "I really want to learn".

What does that tell you ??


Sorry. just fed up with all the hyprocracy
