NL->PLO coz I suck |

Hi,
that's my first blog post here. Im playing for more than a few months, started with FL, went to 6max NL and tried grinding it. I was beating NL25 quite easy then went for huge downswing, and Im back at those shitty NL10 and I can't get out for last 3 months... So I moved to PLO for a while, just to have a break. PLO is quite a simple game, and Im really beating PL20 now on ipoker. Whatever!
About NL: Generally I suck when gets to turn and river and I know that. Im really trying to improve my game mostly by posting some hands and watching CR videos. Everytime I put a guy on a flush draw fe, and I fire second barrel I get raised. Im getting floated too often I think. Im basicly break-even (ok a small winner) at NL10 after 50K hands which is sick sick sicko. My stats are 19/15/3.5 went to showdown 22, won at sd 52 etc. Everything seems okey. I really DO HAVE positional awarness and that's also not the problem. Funny thing is I don't have the roll for NL25 but when I take some shoots at it recently it was eazy shipping, exactly like the time before my downswing. Ofc I wont play it without bankroll coz everyone knows how it will end. I've made a short conversation with one of the CR main members and he agreed that NL10 is now much harder then it was before because there's huge poker boom in europe and everyone wants to try and the basic of pf and flop are quite easy to understand and there's SO MUCH sites where u can really learn the basics. I don't know what to do, so Im playing PLO for a while, maybe I will get the roll for NL25 or NL20 and play it then. If anyone is interested in some session reviews, or coaching me how to get out from the sucking micros I will be glad.

Dude I dont think that people are floating you at NL10. The vast majority of players at NL10 dont know what floating means. Sure they may be effectively floating you with bottom pair or complete air by calling your flop cbet and taking down the pot when you check the turn, but they're doing that out of position as well. I think one of the most important things at NL10 is knowing when to cbet. Because you will get called very often, you need to give some extra thought into whether or not to cbet a flop. Take into consideration flop texture, and your opponents preflop calling ranges. If they're calling your raises with 25% of their hands then you can bet they're playing any 2 broadway cards. If they're calling cbets 60% then they're probably calling with any pair on the flop and a bunch of straight and flush possiblilities as well. Obviously cbet for value whenever you hit the flop and dont be afraid to check/fold flops where your hand is unlikely to improve ie. mid low pocket pairs, where your opponents range is likely to have hit that flop, or will have a lot of outs against your hand. This is especially true when oop.
FWIW, I dont think you ever need to fire a 2nd barrell without a made hand or good draw at NL10 to crush it.
