And how are you doing?

[/ QUOTE ] Why do you ask? I'm up .5 bb after 30,000 hands. I have a feeling I'm a 1bb/100 player right now. 3/6 is tougher than 1/2, but I think anyone with basic poker skills including tilt management can beat it.

Hi jt,
I just asked because I thought you were overplaying your hand, but if you're having success it might indicate I'm wrong or that the 3/6 game is more aggressive than 1/2.

Hi Tom,

The 3/6 and 5/10 games are significantly more aggressive than 1/2. There are also enough skilled players at this level that they will see this flop and realize it's unlikely that the PFR hit it, even if they didn't either. So, you will find that you often have to call down hands with reasonable showdown value such as a broadway ace or premium pp because otherwise you might be pushed out by an aggressive player with a worse hand pretty often.

In this case however, it seems pretty clear that hero is beat.
