New kid on the block!

Hi,

I am new to the SnGs AND NL!

I was beginning to get bored with Limit Holdem and toyed with the the 55s (3x, placed 10th, 5,4), 109s (3x, placed 7,4,2) and decided it's prob better to drop down to the 22s and 11s.

After getting somewhat unlucky yesterday at the first 3 11s I placed 5,2,1,1 at the 22s. Since I've been reading this board now for 6 days I can say that I could not have accomplished that without the advice (+ some luck) here. So far, the advice to be aggressive on 4+ level made a big difference. I even got threatened already by other players ("You know, I will get a hand at some point"). It is amazing that many let themselves get pushed out of the blinds even if it leaves them with less than one BB.

I still have to get behind the concepts of when to call, miniraise and standard raise and a lot more. I am not too bad at playing short-handed though.

I will continue with reading here and start to post some hands.
