Today was my first shot at NL5 and it went pretty well. Up just over 3 BI's in 1079 hands. If I keep up this pace I'll be done NL5 in about a week. I did make some terrible calls and I paid off big pocket pairs with small/medium pocket pairs way too many times. Also got check/minraised on 4 of my 7 biggest losing hands. I guess I need to give any aggression more credit, even if it's a minraise. It doesn't really feel much different than NL2 at all, although there seem to be a few more players with stats that I can 3bet light against.
Ran into some crazy hands. In this one the action makes no sense at all. I raised a minbet on a 3way flop (admittedly probably too small) with second pair and got min-reraised, the original bettor called the reraise and I called behind, quite confused. The turn brought three to a flush and the original bettor donked small. With only 2nd pair I decided I'd had enough and folded, and the two left in the hand proceeded to minraise each other until they got all-in. Then they turned over 3rd and 4th pair. I sat there in shock, the only relief was the fact I would have gotten sucked out on.

This hand a player folded to a $0.10 bet into a $4.67 pot on the river when he had $0.07 left behind. Once again, shock.

Lol, if they happen to get online again be sure to search for them ! 
The first hand is perfectly fine, i don't really mind the .30 bet because most of the time they'd fold because their donkbet make no sense at all. Beware though, when they suddendly make big raises on later street, they often have 2 pairs which is a pain in the ass (it's like 75% 2 pairs 25% bottom pair/busted FD/SD). |
