After the success i had 2 sundays ago ive upped my ABI a little bit. I guess im still mid-stakes but ive been throwing more 109s and 20rs now. I havent quite moved up to 33rs or 163s yet because im a BR nit (and i cashed some $$ out) but soon.

Again wanted to thank everyone for their support i hope i can make something happen again this sunday.

What i plan on playing:

FTP: 26$ 24k, 26$ 9.5k KO, 75$ 17.5k, 26$ 5k PL, 26$ 16k, 75$ 35k, 22r 10k 6 max, 26$ 32k, 50$ 50k.

Total: $392.00

stars: 22$ 1r1a 10k, 55$ 80k, 11$ 200k, 11r 70k, 55$ 50k, 109$ 50k, 11$ 1r1a, 27.50 40k, 55$ 70k

Total: $456.00

Bodog: 109$ 20k, 44$ 4k, $??.?? 250k

Total: $153+whatever it costs to satty to 250k

GRAND TOTAL: $1001.00

hmm that doesnt seem like alot lol i may just buy straight into the 250k if i dont satty.
If i bust alot ill prob be adding some random other tourns but i think the sched looks pretty solid. Taking a look there really arent any mid day 109s which kinda sucks, they start at 1 or 11 which are both outa my registering range. Although if im feelin good ill prob keep registering till 11 which would make my day pretty pricey. Maybe if i take something down early ill keep going. Btw the reason i only play the bodog major is because its got the smallest field for a major and its the softest in my opinion. I'll start playing FTP and Stars majors soon as well but like i said BR NIT. Also i havent been in the habit of sattying into majors so maybe thats something i should look into.

Ok sattys firing up wish me luck.

thx bro.. i responded to ur pm u never got back to me.

You really need to play the Sunday Warm-up and the Sunday Million if you are going to play the $109's because there is so much more value in the Sunday Majors.
I guess you could rationalize playing just the biggest $109's on Sunday and not play the majors, but if you are playing any $109's during the week (when they are much tougher) then just cut those out and add the Sunday Majors. Either way gl today, take another one down.

agreed

what he's saying is that the $200's are much much softer than the $109, therefore playing the $200's is better for you, even though you only get to play 1

heres an interesting hand maybe. Normally i just ship here to avoid being flatted and hopefully look weak as possible. But sb has been playing back at me and i knew hed bit if i std raised sooo:

I like the std raise here with AKo SB vs BB, especially if he's been playing back. Sounds like his reraise range is a lot wider than his calling range, so I'd expect more value playing raise/call than push.

fast forward a few hands later...

ur play and why

most of the time i push. i mean u cant call and expect him to fold after a cb. i guess raise call looks stronger, but seems a little ridic with 16bb. folding isnt too bad, esp if gunit55 had been tight, but i dont know, it just seems weak to me.

edit: i dont know, maybe i lean torwards fold with no info. just such an awkward stack.
