    • lol good to know even at those stakes you have a couple redonkalous players

    • avatar for Tony Gags
    • If you got good game selection(which is key at these stakes full stacking) 5 good regs 2 semi decent guys and 2 donks is a good table. If your at a table with 3 donkeys you lucked out for sure

    • lol i need to start getting those online programs

    • avatar for Tony Gags
    • nah just play 300g+ hands a year and you will know who the good regs are lol

    • avatar for FREMONTkyle
    • lol after going broke to each of them LOL

      what programs do you use?

    • avatar for Tony Gags
    • I use pokertracker but I dont really use the hud(heads up display) Use it more to keep track of wins losses how i am playing etc.

    • Was grinding 3-6 when I was 19 the first year lucky chances opened, worked my way up to the 15-30 game then got completely sidetracked by work and school(paid for from that 15-30 game lol) Picked it up again once the moneymaker effect kicked in and I was done with school. Switched over to NL cash online in like 2004 at 10.25 cent lol worked my way up to 50-1 in about a year and stayed there happy with the little side monies I was making. Last 2 years I decided to see if I could do this for a living and got my roll high enough to play 5-10 games playing part time. I finally decided to give it a go this summer when the wifey was pregnant. Pretty much played fulltime this summer and made an insane anount of monies but hated it, so I figured part-time at both jobs is a good mix. Poker pays 3 times as much as my other job but man the quality of life factor is so low sitting in front of a computer all day so I found a mix that works perfect for me. LIke the poker life story? man I must be bored lol. Hopefully they overturn the UIGEA so all the fish return to the nose bleed limits so I can play for a few hours a day and kill it. Either that or move to Arizona and get a cheaper mortgage lol.

    • 3-6 limit really how did you do it the only place ive played where its possible to play any resemblance of poker at 3-6 is oaks at what point did you wait to move up in the limits? when you dropped to NL why so low as far as the 10-25 the 50-1 game really did have enough fish to make a nice enough profit before the uigea. have U tried playing any limit online? i noticed that the limit players online are actually better overall than the NL players. what time periods do you think are the most plentiful with fish online? and with the limits you play how much ABC poker do you play? when i play the low limits i found it more profitable to up the tables played and sit back waiting for the premium hands. without really playing players tendencies or paying much attention to the table dynamics. of course ive only tried this at the 10-25 25-50 and 50-1 levels
