Re: My Experiences - Are They Normal?
1 - this is especially true on party. top pair, top kicker is a trouble hand at deep no-limit play where you can have something like 200 big blinds in front of you, but when you can only have 50, it is a hand worth moving in on the flop if it was raised preflop. and on party you will often see someone calling you with less.
2 - misplaying jacks is a lot more common than misplaying aces, even though the latter is a problem among newbies. people don't seem to realize that jacks are a very vulnerable hand when an overcard flops and someone keeps betting.
3 - on party i wouldn't even play this hand unless i could limp in very late position. the 50xBB stacks don't give you enough implied odds to play it in early position or for a raise.
why not play the .10/.25 NL on UB? the players are a little better, but the deeper money makes more hands playable and should help your profits.
