Don't think there's much wrong with hand 2: KT and JT are within his range.

I've been in that same situation before several times. I have decided that no matter how bad I know the players are I won't sit at NL1000 for the time being. I will occasionally sit at NL600, but even then I avoid it. For example I have played 5 hands of NL600 this month

I just found that it is way too easy to run bad or make one mistake that costs me multiple days work at NL400 or NL200. Its also too hard on me psychologically because I am not properly rolled to play those games IMO, especially since I never run good when I take a shot.

I just had the most brutal beatings I think I've ever had within 500 hands in my life so far. I literally lost ALL my all ins for stacks with river to come and I was a huge favorite in some of them, no tilt though which feels good. -1500$ worse than EV on 8 all ins (500 hands)

500 hands
-1700$, and there was nothing at all I could do.

NOVEMBER STATS



Up to 10K$ this month until I had 2 bad days with one expensive shot at 1000NL where I ran bad.

Another 2K$ on Cake over 6K hands.

Total hands 19000 (I already have a fulltime job and 2 kids)
Total cash: 5600+400 RB = 6000$
All In EV -1500$

Handsome win rate at 400NL, there Cooper... but how do you get 19k hands in with a full time job, when I can only manage 12k at most? Are you 6-8 tabling that horrible Cake software?

Finally a good session again

Ongame 1 hour for +300$
Cake 1 hour for +1700$

There is no feeling like stacking someone for the first time on a new level:

There you go, I pure hoped for him to play his FD like this, I couldnt put him on a better A due to PF and TT/66 I chose to stack off to. I fold this a lot too btw but this was 2nd time he raised flop against me and I was getting a bit pissed with him.
