Heres the best piece of advice i can possibly give you.... first forget playing NL2 bingo/crapshoot, then find a good deposit bonus/rakeback & take it so that your properly rolled to play NL10, where people play just about as bad... cept theres 5x the stake, so 5x the profit lol & the convenient thing about NL10+ is that you can be a very breakeven player but still be making a nice profit just from the bonuses + rakeback.

It's nothing... today i got the most stupid and weird play by some guy... with the amazing end... ofc for him... I had KK raised normally got re-raised by a guy which in last hand do same with hand 85 Off so i was like... maybe i will get nice pay ^^.... ofc i was wrong... Flop goes 4 4 k ofc i raise he goes all-in i was thinking he have the 4.... but! He shows 23 suited... and ofc he got straight flush with 5 and 6 on the turn and river. And i ask.... how much % u have for that? And how u think the soft are not rigged. Ofc on PokerStars... anyway i got today so much suckouts i have never got before.... one by one all the time... i nearly can't belive i am just only 4$ down.

Well...an awful call on this guy's part....but on the other hand, why the hell do you raise to 50 BB with AKo? You didn't give yourself any wiggle room either...why not raise to 0.20 and evaluate the flop?

because I play SSS but instead of regular 20-25 BB I buy-in for 50 BB.....And if you are folowing that strategy you will know that whit AK sutited or not,you go all-in if there is a raise before or after you,and you fold it only if there is two or more raises before you....so I was jut folowing that.....but only thing is that I had around 50Bb not regular 20-25 BB.....it can be swingy but.....AK is really profitable for me playing this way around 70% wining percantage....

Posted by BhStaljin: does he really think he will win anything in the long run
of course he does it's the lowest micro there is - 99% of players there do think they are the winners... and winning like that just fuels them... but then again - it's NL2 - so you can't really take those beats seriously - just move on. In fact - you'd want to have these players on your table because YOU know that in the long run they will lose and when they do you'll be there to collect the money and move up from that level

I'm sorry, but the only bad play I see is playing nl2. What do you expect. I don't see the point of posting hand histories for this level. Same goes up to AT LEAST nl25. But even then...
Serious, no offense, play what you like, play limit 2c if you like.. But I really don't see the point of your post, it's like saying somebody went all in with J7os with 1,000 in play money. Who cares.

i think you did not see that much when you say it's the stupidest play you ever have seeing ! at this stakes you see at almost every hand such play by different players ! you better play roulette with your money instead of playing poker and the odds will even be better for you . I don't say that you play bad at poker , i just want to inform you that it is just impossible to have a descent game at this micro stakes .
