I am near Syracuse, NY for the weekend. I am posting this with the new wordpress app for iPhone.
Nice to get some rest. I have been playing a lot of NL recently with wildly different results. I started off on UB with the idea that a lot of the good players are gone, which for the most part is true. The one thing about being super aggro at lower limits is that people call you very light. I have lost some pots being too aggressive hoping people were on draws that were not. I ran about $700 into about 10k in 3 days and then hit a dead spot. That is when I moved to Cake to give that a run. Currently I am on an uptick there but I have not been playing there long. My experience on Cake is that people call you real light. If they call the flop they are likely in for the river but when you hit your hand you can stack them. My game is mostly geared to stacking people because they think I am bluffing all the time. This strategy works better below 5-10 but there is a fair amount of fish at those limits too at both sites.
I did have a weird experience the other night when I went out to dinner. Having dinner next to me was a mother and son. As it turns out he plays online poker for a living. I almost did not believe him when he said it, I thought my wife was playing a joke on me. So we had some interesting conversation. Always nice to have another poker friend in the Twin Cities.
