Re: Could I be a losing player at $200nl 6-max?
I have noticed significant differences in the play between the Party and Skins 100 NL 6-max game and the 200 NL 6-max game. Personally, I have been doing very well at the 100NL level (with a ton of...

So you're going to call 11 BBs to see if you can flop an ace when you'll most likely either win a small pot or lose a big pot when you do hit? I can't imagine how this could possibly be a...

OK, preflop I can definitely raise bigger but I can't see how it is SUCH a big deal whether it is 3bb or 5bb. The implied odds are there for implied odds hands either way. Maybe 5bb is a...

Re: Proof that I need a long break?
I agree about taking a break - and play under a different account or screen name when you return.
Putting in a big raise PF might solve a lot of problem in this hand. First, it may weed out some...

Re: THE TURN
I think both players have equalish 100bb+ stacks you can put in a nice raise on flop (raise to $25 or so). If he calls that then you can assume he has a big hand (rather than a big draw) and you can...

I personally would raise him all in because (i) you are likely ahead, (ii) the hand may be much more difficult to play on the turn (i.e. lots of scare cards) and you may be in a position where you...

Re: 20% vpip at 50nl 6max
If you combined your VP$IP with the OP PFR% you get pretty close to the stats of a typical 6-max player. Players with these stats can be very good or very bad. It is really hard to pin down one...

Re: Wow, I butchered another one
I thought UTG started the hand with $65. He raised $12 pf and put another $20 in on the flop leaving him with about $33 on the turn. On the turn the pot was $55. Bottom line is that this is a bad...

If I where MP3 I would raise you regardless of what I had. You limped so he can't put you on a premium ace.

Re: 20% vpip at 50nl 6max
Lots of different things work in 6-max. 20% VP$IP is pretty low, but I don't see any reason why you can't be a consistent winner playing this way, especially if people are not paying attention. ...
