I've been playing some 100NL, mostly 200NL and 400NL, and sitting in a couple 600NL games and 1000NL games with short stacks.
The 1000NL game really interests me as the deception I see some players use is enlightening. I only sit with a few hundred and am not rolled for the game at all (short stack I am). I really want to learn that game, I wish more hands went to showdown as I would railbird here and there to learn as well.
still a lot of work to do on my game. I might cut back on the # of tables I play to focus on my game some. I think it would help me out.
Hope you all are doing well. Mind your roll.

I feel sick
I have been playing 100 to 1000 nl and some STT's and MTT's. Mainly tournies, low buy in one's the past week or so.
Tonight found a soft 600NL game, AA utg. i open limp and it's raised and then reraised and 2 players call the reraise before it gets back to me. Then my table just closes on me for no reason. The software crashed on me earler today when i was playing a mtt and i had to reinstall it. So i find the table with AA and open it up before I am folded and rereraise and get 2 callers. Flop comes 8 high. blind open pushes, i push and other player calls. Blind has 99 and other player has QQ. Turn is a 9.
$1,600 pot, the largest I have ever played. (I was sitting with 400). Turn is a 9. Ouch. That friggin hurt a lot.
won $150 in the tourney, woopie sheit.

If you want to improve, be content to be thought foolish and stupid.

Be glad your opponents refuse to fold; if they didn't, you just might go broke.
