It's funny how much I am a slave to structure. I had always passed by the Pot Limit tables for a few reasons. One, I didn't know what differences there were between a good NL player and a good PL player. This was enough to know that I wasn't playing optimally, which is something I don't like to do knowingly. The second reason, however, was because I wanted to play all of my hands this month in NL, so that my pokertracker display would be nice. This second reason is stupid, because it's obviously not optimal. It's just funny how I can pretend not to notice that second reason and skip right over the PL tables every time.
Today was different, because when I first signed on www.tableratings.com wasn't working for Full Tilt, so I was slightly confused about where I should sit. To make matters worse, the shortest wait for an NL25 table was 2 people...! What?!?? I've never seen an absence of tables without waits before, so today was a first. There were even tables with 6 people waiting in line! Why the hell would you wait for 6 people to leave, it would make the table entirely different!
Anyway I sat at two PL tables and put my name in on some of the NL tables, using old fashioned table selection -- ala big $$ pots and big % seeing flop. I ended up sitting at a PL25 table with $103 at one point (4+ BI!) And now PT says I'm running at 68.46 ptBB/100 for PL25. :)
Sadly I ended up losing money overall today at the NL tables, but the ridiculous PL stackings were enough to throw me way into the positive.
Also I had quads twice in 100 hands??? WTF??? Sadly neither paid off big.
There was an error in this stats section yesterday... just disregard yesterday's...
