Moved up to 5NL

[NightGizmo]

the only notable diff for now is that flop/turn reraises are dangerous here. in 2nl you could call easily with TPTK, but at 5nl these flop/reraises usually mean TPTK is not good, or i just bumped into sets and 2pair in these 3k hands.

I noticed you keep saying things like this. You need to stop generically thinking things like "I have TPTK, so I can call a flop raise/3bet at 2NL". All of your decisions should be based on your estimation of the villain's range for his actions, not "this is the normal action for this stake".

Extreme example: imagine you have TPTK and you're facing a flop raise from:
a) a 6/4 with 12% AFq over 100 hands, or
b) a 53/27 with 88% AFq over 100 hands

What do you think villain a is raising with, and how does your TPTK fare against that? What about villain b?

The only reason that "I can call raises with TPTK at 2NL but not at 5NL" might be true is simply because at 2NL there is a higher percentage of loose bluffy fish. But you could have a much higher winrate if you ditch this mentality.

a. i would snap fold, its clear i am beat by its stats, he will rarely bluff there or in the best case i tie, but more often i lose

b. i would 4bet shove, he can deff beat me but there are a lot of combos in his range that i beat, most times with this guy on TPTK i am 0ver 50% favourite
