At FR I could always (well, often) find a fold with an overpair to a properly strong set-type line, but at 6max... I dunno though, because I am losing stacks with my premiums but I don't seem to be winning stacks very often - indeed I am still down overall with JJ-AA for the month.
I don't think I'll be playing any more ring in October, so my final stats are a really pretty disappointing:
7,000 hands
+$127
1.81ptbb/100
In my last post I refer to a 7.5 buyin downswing; it ended up being 11 buyins, but since then I have won back 5 which at least puts me back in the black. Rakeback was about $90 - I played all my games this month at Full Tilt. I only played 7k hands because for the first half of the month I didn't get to play at all due to overseas visitors and social bookings..
I think my game is fine for returning to $100NL, but to be honest I am feeling pretty comfortable at $50NL (and especially PL), and after two and a half years of playing recreational poker I understand quite how important it is to not let the game stress you out. S November is likely to be more of the same, possibly mixing in some 5max at Mansion (Ongame) where I have a juicy 36% rb.
Finally - I played a tiny satellite last night, a 4-table SNG at Stars, and my gf called from the states meaning I missed the first half hour of play. So I sat down with 1/3 the average stack; but half the players had already bust out, and I did manage to come back about 1 minute before the blinds went up to 100/200 so at least I was in control by that point.
Naturally I ended up 1st when we reach the top 6 paying places. I think I might play a few more satellites, they're easy
