I have built my bankroll from $50 to $600 in three months playing the NL 10 and NL 25 Party Poker cash games. However, I have had trouble beating the NL 50 games (have tried at Party and on Everest Poker so far) as players are very aggressive with their made hands (raises, re-raises, check-raises both on the flop and the river), rarely bluff (making you fold a lot in order to save bets) and do not pay me often enough with my made hands for me to make a profit consistently. Right now I find myself with three options:
-Bonus whoring at the NL 25 games at other rooms keeping gambling to a minimum. Playing 6-tables to accelerate the clearing. Clearing bonuses at a level I cannot beat is a losing strategy from my experience.
-Staying at a beatable NL 25 at a room with Rakeback
-Make it to $1500 with the two options above and do online rounding to scout and test NL 50, NL 100 and NL 200 games to find the beatable ones and become a regular there with Rakeback.
Can someone that have moved up from NL 50 at Party Poker tell how to consistently beat those players? Your help is kindly appreciated.

I exclusively play 6max, but this should help:-
- Stop slowplaying
- Play big pots with big pot hands, play small pots with small pot hands
- Learn to read what your opponents have
- Learn the concept of relative hand strength (Discussed in Renton's 169 hand strategy)

$600 sounds a little light for FR NL50.
Raise good hands, play more in position. Forget slowplaying.
I play 50NL on Everest and it's amazing what crap players will stack off with. The big key to taking advantage of this is to learn how to read hands.

This is not my signature. I just write this at the bottom of every post.

1. Read hands on 2nd level "what does he have"
2. 2nd barrel and "stack-a-donk line" are your new friends
3. ???
4. Profit.

raise alot of conecting type hands in position and c-bet flops. Dont be afariad to let them go on the turn when you mis or fold to a flop c/r. This will pick you up alot of small pots and get you some action on your big hands against the right players.

Just play tight positional poker dude. I wouldn't play 50nl without at least $1000 though. Read Renton's guide here : http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...oker-36037.htm
Good luck.

Or was that really breath? As in, use your foul breath as a weapon at the table!
600 is light, in some regard. It's definitely light if you aren't confident you can beat the level.
But if you shoot $100 at it, and you drop to $500, that's still plenty for 25NL, so you're not really hurting much.
