i've been playing on stars for, essentially, my entire career. so, i am apparently coming from games that are a bit tougher than all but FTP...from what i've been hearing lately. i have never had a problem killing stars until this month. in fact, i've done much better there than at party, the pokerrooms, absolute, the cryptos, ub, and FTP. but, i have noticed the pre-flop percentages really SUCK for the volume. what gives?

last couple weeks i've been elsewhere and have noticed some fish with regularity. maybe its all in the luck/matchups, but it certainly feels better when TPTK has a passive 2nd pair or weaker kicker call all the way down. thats the way the dummies used to play, and its much easier to make a little money.

fwiw, i've opened back up to 21/10 ish and am turning the corner again. its just more fun to raise pf and cbet. it sets up a lot more action on your bigger hands, imo. i'm sure, however, theres a LAG out there that would call me a pussy rock, even at those numbers...
