1k hands tonight, which was great. I usually don't feel up to playing more than an hour or two after work, but i picked up some energy drinks on the way home and was focused for much longer than normal. However i was BE which wasn't awesome. I am still running/playing well at 100NL, and in 10-15k more hands i should have the 8k i want to move back to 200NL and try to stay in that game.

I feel like my small pot game is excellent for 100NL. I think it would still be good relative to 200NL regulards, but i need to get back up there to find out if i am right or not!!!

Another good thing is i have figured out what my "perfect" table is.

1). LAG/fish to my right. 100NL LAGG"s generally suck postflop so they are just dumping $$$ to me.
2). nit/50BB stack to my left. Nits don't 3bet enough to exploit my CO/BTN opening range, and the 50BB stacks don't 3bet much since they need a good hand to do it with since they are committing a large portion of their stack. Plus they also usually aren't good enough to 3bet light since they didn't buy in full.
3). A nit in the BB. He isn't defending enough against my LP open raises.


Basically the aggro players to my left and the weak/tight players to my right. And i am actually moving if after 2-3 orbits it appears i am not looking at favorable table conditions.


No hands to post really (except the one in the SH forum), i can't believe how much better i am at analyzing my opponents ranges and deciding when/who to make moves on the flop against. Most likely my turn/river play is still weak relative to where i need it to be to be a solid winner at 400NL. It would be really cool if a good midstakes/highstakes player would write something concerning bet sizing and good spots to make moves after the flop.
