Micro Stakes Online NL Poker Forums

Hey guys! This thread was supposed to be monthly anyhow and it just never happened, so in order to clear up some clutter we have a brand spankin' new one just in time to go back to school!

I dunno about any of you guys, I'm really excited for this fall. Living in a 'new' house with some cool (albeit non-poker playing) roommates, good weather, finishing up my last semester of economics, and coming out with a new series starting this Wednesday! Holla!

I will actually go ahead and kick off the party with some hands I played last night with chazb0t sweating me at 25nl...enjoy!

This needs more love. If your main game is 50NL, which I think it is, you sir are my new hero.

Tell us what it felt like to see the J hit on the flop and then see that glorious Q come on the turn...?

Head asplodes! Did you have some kind of read?

basically thought he had to have air a lot when he raised that flop. even if he has 88-TT or something i have 6 outs, and hell i didn't think he would be calling with A high but that was just a bonus!

Trying not to bluff catch at NL25 but these were fun....

Yeah I play 50nl, but I'm way over-rolled for it. For awhile, I played 100 and 200nl on FT, but moved to AP and deposited a much smaller bankroll while using the rest for other life reasons.

Anyway, he jammed 125 BB, I stood up. Told myself "im not folding". Hit the call button. And was 100% silent the whole showdown. Then, i proceeded to dance, but I realized that my hands and legs were shaking in nervousness.

Aaahhh, yes, it's such an amazing feeling isn't it?

It brings back fond memories of a few irresponsible, usually tilt induced, and severely under rolled shots of my own. Gotta love that rush.

basically thought he had to have air a lot when he raised that flop. even if he has 88-TT or something i have 6 outs, and hell i didn't think he would be calling with A high but that was just a bonus!

Shoving the flop doesn't make much sense if you think he has air, and you have a hand that beats air.
