Whats with the nits.

Obviously i realize i should be aiming at beating all nit tables too.
Im just wondering if all-nit is standard or am i just running bad table selection wise.

I just moved up to 100nl a cople of hours ago and everyone in FR seems to play really weak/tight. After 1,500 hands im up 3 buyins without a sweat. Hopefully i can keep up this winrate and pwn these weak/tight players.

TBH im not getting any cards either, running like 12/6 on most tables, which doesnt help the nit problem at all!

Yeah im not very good at that, it seems every time i try to bluff em or what not they do have something.
I know its a leak ofc and working on it but id like to make some money too while at it=P

hmm...
kinda sounds like you're the nittiest of the nits

Try loosening up? open wide from late pos and...read souls.
experiment with opening up more, you can always re adjust if it doesn't work

im not complaining im asking a question.

If the same nits play fr and 6max you should play 6max because there its a bigger mistake to play very tightly. Play small pots, if they call flop just shut down. sb vs bb raise any two cards (depends on how bad and nitty they are. This is very easy to abuse so don't do this vs anyone who adapts), on button when its folded to your raise any two cards. Try to have the nits on your left. I think that you should pull fine profit playing with 3 massive nits and 2 spewtards because the nits allow you to play with the loosygoosys whenever you like. Also if the nits let you steal blinds all the time you make huge moneys just out of that. If you for 10 rounds steal from button and from sb you make 10big blinds / 100 hands which is nice winrate. Obv it never works out like that, it was just an example to emphasize how big deal it can be if they keep being huge nits when you raise lp.

Yes, NL50 / NL100 is very nitty overall. Most of the players are not very good though, they play very straightforward and are easy to read. You can definately make money playing 12/6, but these stakes are ideal for learning to play somewhat more laggy. I sometimes play NL100 for fun / LAG style practice and when I do, I usually run something like 33/27 and it works wonders.

I've been playing nl25 for the past couple hours, using hud for the first time.. 4/6 people are <20VPIP, surprising number are 15 and below too. Its crazy nitty lol. Maybe its the hour, and there are just mostly regs on atm?

oh and when you start experimenting with being laggy dont try to play more than 4tables, at least for beginning.

Thanks for pointers guys. And no i dont play 12/6 i just ran bad. Im coming into double digits now^_^

And i cant play less then 6 tables. I have laik ADHD and if i dont get bombarded with action itll be harder for me to focus on 4 tables then 6.

but there is massive action in 4tables! 400 hands per hour! yes you only play 80 hands per hour (or 100) but the other 300 are equally important.

EDIT: Or well yeah with hud they become quite unimportant ._.

actually this seems pretty easy when i dont run bad
Or run good?
^^

100nl is easy enough. thats why i never leave it.
flounder are you that highsociety guy?

nope

12/6 lol

steal their blinds
3bet their raises
run at 10bb/100 hands

..ez game
