Just business as usual. Cash can be pretty sick in terms of just how much huge volume you can have big heaters, breakevens, downswings, etc…you have to be bankrolled deep I think. Here was today's session for me, pretty standard to be honest:

As long as you're bankrolled well and comfortable where you're playing then there isn't much to worry about, just grinding through the runbad and analyzing your play to make sure you're doing well. But if you're used to tournaments you should be used to wanting to pull your hair out! 🙂

Good luck!

Sounds like you had both. Good job!

Anytime you wanna play some 200NL or 400NL let me know. 😛

I have been doing something similar since 1st October and have turned $200 into almost $2000. Not just cash games though, won about $650 in two tournament cashes but the rest in cash games. My goal is to reach $2500 by end of November by grinding 4-table 25/50c tables on PKR.

Nice. Unless he has KQ or AK that line doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

I think he might get you to fold if the turn goes check/check and then he puts out a value bet sized river bet.

Show them ring game monkeys lol. Btw, 14 BB/100 may not be sustainable but it sure as heck feels good huh?
