Hey, long time now sense my last update.

I moved up to NL50, which is "low" stakes on Pokerstars. I'm not a "micro" stakes player anymore!! woohoo!
I'm also doing okey. Its really not so much different then NL25. The transfer between NL10 to NL25 was much much harder as you might remember

Biggest difference between NL25 and 50 is that the yber donkeys are back. ppl from NL10 taking shots it feels like. Many ppl also dont respect raises from the blinds, at all, but other ppl respect them as much as a early/mid pos raise. easy to adjust to.

Example (no respect):
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/406745 i did this like 3 times, to bad he played semi shortstacked.

I have played about 5k hands on NL50 now, up about 5 BIs. some more if you count in HU play. Now im playing for real money it feels like, which is great. If i win 3 BIs i have made more money then 8 hours of work at my job

cant wait until NL100, thats like a dream for my playing is such "high" stakes games lol

One question about NL50 or any limit i guess: 4betting. it happens like never in NL25-50. when a regular player 4bets its AA/KK 100% of the time. few ppl 4bets AK/QQ. I used to 4 bet, on NL10 like QQ+ and AK. Now i find it more profitable to just flat a 3bet and own TT+ on a low board or like AQ/AJ w/ AK. ofc i have to fold a lot of KK/QQ on A-high flop but i think its still a good play. When i flat i have pos, if im OOP i still 4bet...they have folded every single time. Even ppl i have a lot of 3bet history with.
What do you think? When does this change? any thoughts on 4betting, please.

And obv im gonna 4bet all LP member constantly now

New biggest hand ever:

This is a 6max table that have broke up. Usually i leave but i got left with the biggest nit ever and i thought i could take some blinds off him before he left. This is like our 9th hand HU, i have won all previous hands. I'm raising any two. guess the 8 other hands put him on mega tilt =)

I like flatcalling 3-bets in pos and 4-betting oop. Makes it easier to play.
