MP1 ($6.20)
MP2 ($12.25)
MP3 ($3.65)
Button ($1.70)

Preflop: Hero is BB with K, J
UTG calls $0.10, UTG+1 calls $0.10, MP1 calls $0.10, MP2 calls $0.10, 3 folds, Hero checks

Flop: ($0.55) 9, J, 4 (5 players)

Turn: ($1.45) 5 (3 players)

Good calldown? All the draws from the flop missed and I checked the river to induce a desperate bluff.

HH's are from 10NL.......

You don't play poker at 10NL, you play cards. So, nit=Perfect/Profitable! Imo anyway.

LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!

Actually no... I don't consider nit & weak-tightie as the same. Used to... also used to play thousands of hands of break-even or less poker. Not any more. I may start tight, but the benefit of that is usually showing up with something that lets me be aggressive and/or still win at SD if pot-control is preferred...

If I have you believing I only play it when I got it, you will give it up anytime I show aggression, regardless of what I actually have... take that you...

... oh wait, does that make me less of a nit??

Maybe I'm just a nit with a heightened sense of situational irony....

...I don't know what that means either...
