thank you, USA, for shutting off the recreational gambler. and, of course, a big shout out to 2p2 for training nits!

that said, i dont think i would run at a 4 anymore. but, i'm a nit, too. i just cant stand the boredom of waiting for set-over-set to actually get paid.

gl to anyone that plays FR below 200NL. the only rocks i like are in my highball glass.
Gotta say, haven't been waiting for set over set.... nowhere near. I've set-camped at 2nl before running 14 tables FR. Know how that works. Not doing that here.

I am a nit, no doubt. Self proclaimed and okay with it. I will err on the side of pot control if there's a choice -- and happy to play a small pot w/ a TP medium/weak kicker or 2nd pr to SD rather than getting blown off a large pot by someone more aggro.

And big respect to your skillz Fnord - wouldn't think for a second you'd play like this 'cause a) god knowz it's been how many million hands since you were learning at $25NL and b) I believe learning thru the levels these days is different from 2-3 years ago, just from the crazy @ss old school posts I've read on the boards here from back then.

Things I'm working on right now...
a) the never ending work to improve hand-reading
b) playing draws more aggressively on the flop where appropriate
c) stealing more from the CO
d) 3-betting more against reads of steals in the blinds or CO steals on the button

That's more than enuff sh!t for me to focus on right now...

thanks for the suggestions peoples!
