Yes indeed.....I pretty much tilted the other $50. That was over the span of 23 hands. I sat with a short buy of 50xBB ($50 twice) I wanted to see if I could handle it yet because I've been watching the games and they seemed easy. Apparently I had no luck against them in that short span and got steam rolled Sticking to 50nl til I build more. My bankroll can't take another hit like that, lost 25% on that YIKES!

Yup indeed. I try to be around 20 buy ins. Just not used to playing so high So now I realize anything over 50nl, I NEED to buy in the full 100xBB or I won't be able to play my game properly. I started 50nl way too soon with only 8 buy ins. But I built it up to 19 buy ins which was good, then of course lost 4 of those playing too high out of my BR with not enough money on the table to begin with. I can't stand 2nl or 10nl, so I just moved up because winning pennies isn't worth it to me.


LOL PROF!! WIN!

Hand1 - Horrible turncard, should we be leading here with a value hand?
Hand2 - Raise pre
Hand3 - Don't like bluffing into many people with no initiative, even on a dry board. When he calls flop on the dry board a made hand Ax or small to mid PP is likely, so when it comes to the river you're beat.
Hand4 - Kinda crappy situation, any reads?
Hand5 - :/ I think shoving flop > shoving turn
