I am the new king of HSNL.
It's pretty much a dead forum. I am going to change that. I plan on posting here, writing some good content, bringing in good players, and I have a couple other ideas.
Any further suggestions would be appreciated.

Good. Whoever was the last mod of HSNL really left it in shambles.

$5/10 is still considered to be high stakes by many.
Some of us remember when it was a big deal when PokerStars opened up $10/$20NL. Some of us even remember when the highest stakes NL game that Party offered was $2/4 with $200 max buy-in.

Woah. Lukkake is really making himself at home, isn't he?
Lukie, you were taking over moderating the forum, not cleaning house. Do you have some ingenious plan to replace the stickies that were here?

i'm pretty sure that folding everything but AA+ to any flop raise and only reraising AQ+ JJ+ vs all opponents regardless of position is no longer a viable strategy in todays games.

Are there any strategy discussion gems in this forum (or strat guides) that we could collect into a High Stakes NLHE Digest sticky?

yeah that post doesn't apply anymore to today's 6 max even at 100NL. Too bad 
And Xianti, stop trolling this thread with rude remarks to triptanes!

Maybe we can have a separate thread with hot dancing girls as inspiration for people to become high stakes ballers, I'm sure everyone knows the reason.

I remember reading his post a while ago and I actually thought the advice was solid in some situations. To rely on it in today's high stakes games though is somewhat absurd and me taking it down reflects that. I think it would be more useful in the beginner's circle or something.

I have a suggestion for Lukie, Gabe and alike (successful highstakers) - how about you pick some interesting, instructive session and post HH with comments after every hand, or at least every VPIP hand and some not quite standard PF folds - why, how, possible alternatives, estimated % of success ...
And I mean after EVERY hand, something like this:

im pretty sure our ballers at ftr are unwilling (f0r obvious reasons) to make vids of playing at the levels they play, or to post entire sessions with thoughts.

It would be entirely -EV for these guys to make vids unless there was a large monetary reward. Metagame is huge at 10/20 and up and making a vid could cost them some serious value.

I didn't get rid of it. It's still here. It's just un-stickied. I'm the new dictator MWAHAHAHHA (I tried taking down xianti's rules too but he'd have none of that).

It's cool that you actually move down when you go on a downswing like this, far too many players, myself included, keeps playing the same stake to turn the downswing around quickly. More often than not it just makes the downswing bigger. I haven't had -40k days, but I've had close to half of it, and next time it happens I'll definately take some time at a lower stake to recover before keep playing at my normal stake again. The getting back to even quickly strategy is definately a bad one. Good luck rebuilding.

when you're a high stakes balla, you get to make threads like the holy thread of randomness, and they get over 2000 replies. If we can get enough traffic I might start a high stakes randomness thread where we can talk about where to play, best regulars, variance, etc. For now though I like the appearance that we're getting more traffic so I'll just leave things as is.

Instead of writing a strat article, or posting an in depth high stakes hand you linked to the thread of randomness in your 3000th post? C'mon Lukie, step it up!
