i've made the grand leap from .02/.04 to .05/.10 and .10/.20.
ok, don't laugh... just trying to develop some intuition on the cheap.
anyway, wow... these people have no idea what they are doing. i busted a couple of people, and i "took advantage of" (in the TW with sheep kind of way) a few others. i don't have pt stats (pokerchamps), but i'm easily over 20bb/100. of course, this is meaningless with such a small sample and such small stakes, but it's nice to know that i am not a complete w a n k e r (can't believe this is filtered) at this.
so few people raise... ever. top pair... check-call. other than one guy who seemed to "get" the concept of aggression in SH, i only got raised with 2pr or better. even then, sometimes 2pr and str8 hands just called.
i'm learning to adjust to the sponge... but i think this is my biggest "leak" so far.
also, the variance can be a real biatch. some donk can call you down your TPTK with a crappy weak kicker, hit on the river, and you get smoked out of a 10+ BB hand. maybe this is just limit... dunno.
also, i seem to like 3-4 better than 6 or HU -- jury's still out on 5. it seems like you can get plenty of dead money in with 3-4 while still playing a lot of hands.

well, just had my second little sh lhe session. i took a small 15bb dip only to get back to plus 1bb before te end of it.
i experienced my first sponge, and it sucked. dude had trip aces and just called my bets -- no raises. i ended up getting my money back by playing position. i could value bet with impunitaahhhh, and muck when he bet if i didn't have tp beat.
and ex... you might have spongitis... might want to go see a doctor.

so much psychology that you can use based on probability. i love it. i had a great read on one guy i was playing HU. Fold to a raise with nothing, call with weak pair, bet/raise with TP or better. i guess this is not an atypical profile. anyway, within three hands of getting my bead on him, he left the table (sigh).
ok, it was only .02/.04... but i love it.
i'm thinking about rapi... um, playing at the party beginner tables. thoughts?
