25 NL Time for some new goals.

Published: Oct 24th, 2008
Been playing alot and kind of overdoing it. 3-4 tables FR and I've been ignoring table selection until now. If I'm at a table thats kickin my ass time to get up and move on, putting a stop loss at about 10 and will see how that works out. Tiltmonster visited after I suffered some bad beats, along with a week of statistical variance and the good ole VPIP started to rise. I've been trying to play pretty tight but I'm going back to bringing it back up to what I like which is a tad on the high side.Want to do it to get some value for my strong pairs.
Holdem manager is my new friend, I'm a big fan of it. PT3 has great features too but its time to move on. 18 bb/100 currently in holdem manager would have been higher if a board with 346 and me with QQ did not get beat by KK. I had layed down QQ earlier to the same person 38/3 when the board came KK9 which I believe was a bad laydown, actually I ran out of time and thought I had more time. Called a opponent who was doing some crazy shit who bet 3.50 preflop, he eventually went allin on the river I had AJ and won he showed 35 that felt good.
Need to slow it down vs these opponents who are raising me when I have top pair everybody is out there set mining and I'm getting dinged on occasion there.
I seem to play better when I blog so I'm going to get back to it more.
Goals
1. Slowdown - take some time to figure it out
2. Stop loss - get up from a table when loss gets up to 10
3. Table Selection- keep an eye on the stats go for the fish
4. hand reading - still poor at this
5. No bluffs - no hardcore bluffs, I'm not afraid to get it allin way to crazy when a board shows a flush.

Any 25NL players out there who want to talk about hands discuss strategy PM me, I'm a big believer you cant do it all yourself everyone has ideas and strategy that will help your game and see it in a diferent way.
