THis s what i am finding, I have been keeping records at this level and the graph is looking like a toblerone huge swings, I.E i was up £172 in one sitting and i lost £50 of it due to poor players crackin kings with garbage and major suck outs, I know that can be the nature of the game, but the only reason i can see for low nlh games is for practice at the moment.

I am currently playing low no limit games online and I find it help me work on my patience in waiting for a good hand and using positional raises, but I am finding i am breaking even rather than turning a profit in the  low limits, However I always turn a very goo profit in the live cash games I think more so bocause I can execute a rebluff by reading the players live. 

Ok the point of the post is, is low nlh a good training ground and thats all for working on your patience and recognising your spot, or can money be made in the lower levels. I find that the mugs in the game playing any ace, or any paint with no regard for a kicker somehow suck out.

Any opinions on this would be appreciated.

The problem is not just that Rod, its when its been operating for an hour or so and the table has accumulated a lot of chips. With the half hour announcement before leaving rule, you end up with £20 buy in just not being enough when 2 or 3 people have over a ton.

Mikky I hear what you are saying, but I will say that I came back from £300 in the hole to £670 and that was from a £20 buy in at the cash game there was a few grand on the table that night too, The cash game is very different from tourney play as you really are playing the man and not the cards too much, there is so much stealing going on in the cash game that you cang snooker a bugger when they are stealing, mind you it heps to get some fish on the table, monday night was a tough table.

OK as the £15 game is on at the cincinatti room on thursday I will endevour to make it, I will be flying back from birmingham so no extracting the urine.

Rod,  What time is kick off on Thursday??
