short stack@3500 hands
Overall, I have 4108 hands at a mix of 25NL and 50NL, mostly 25NL, WR is at 4.46PTbb/100 which is 2x the big blind.
For Party, I am just shy of 3500 hands, 3485 to be exact. 414 hands of 50NL the rest at 25NL.
Overall WR is 5.45PTbb/100
1.03 at 50NL and 6.04 at 25NL.
Made a run at the 50NL tables one night and did well. Got my bank on party (my winnings and half the bonus I have cleared in the last two months) up to $200 and decided to play 50NL only.
Of course, that is when I started running card dead, losing $24 is 300 hands.
My typical VPIP of 12.5 dropped to 8, my PFR on 4 dropped to 2.
The hands I got didn't get paid off, and there were a couple of suckouts.
I have returned to the 25nl tables until I hit 200 again, and I am already making a come back.
the cards are running cold, and when I have a big hand no one else does, but I am making fewer mistakes too.
Total won on party is 97$

at least you keep a low VPIP... still playing solid even if the cards arent comming.. just keep grinding it out

Okay, explain to me what 50NL and 25NL mean. Is that the max buyin? Why not just say the BB? I always wondered what that means exactly.

You would think that the easier way to type it would be the best way. But no... There was a point there where 25NL on party was .25/.50NL then they changed the blinds to .10/.25NL. And there are some sites (mainly BM casinos) that have 100NL with 1/1 blinds, but on most inline sites the same game is .5/1. It does get confusing. But assume that the Big Blind is 1/100th of the buy-in.

But your strategy is not to buyin with the whole amount right Beavis? Just cause your calling it 25NL and it is .25-.50 NL you still buyin with what was it, 24BB? Just curious cause if my bankroll continues to grow I will be getting there soon (.25-.50 NL I mean). I am currently trying to develop a good NL strategy for ring games so thats why I am asking questions like this.

yes, I buy in for 24bb, try not to let it get below 20. I play four tables at once, 3 if chatting. Try to play at least 100 hands a day this way. Got tired of O8b, and the S8b games get really rocking on stars sometimes, so this is my alternative.
