Question about NL10

sillymunch

i have one question about NL10, i went into it earlier just to find out what the play was like and cus it was a TV room and yeah anyways, when i left i was up £2, but my question is this, in NL4 which is what i actually play, you have a lot of fishy type charachters, in NL10 it was more like maniacs playing they would always raise me, usually pre flop, and as soon as the flop is finished they raise straight away, this is how i ended up getting paid, watching a person raise me say 50p, and then me check raise him and have him fold, so is that what its like up there in NL10, i wont be playing there till im properly bank rolled lol, just fancied some tv time haha

There is still alot of nl4 type of player at nl10 just not as many , there is also a gd few regs here and defo know what they are doin (dont take long to figure out who is who though) its still a case of playin ure gd hands vs the fishy types and ya get paid fairly easily , just be aware that if ya bluffin ure still likely to get em NOT fold out if they hit even in the slightest

yeah i get what you mean well im not gonna frequent there yet not till i have my bank roll up i only did it for a bit of fun, the people that were on this table were all under chip stacked, like 4-7 pound, and then 2 with stacks of 30 xD so im guessing the one with 30 is regular and the others are the fishy types?

TBH any fish can have his day, I've been on many tables at NL10 where one guy is on like £40-50 but is playing uber crazy and it's just a matter of time before he loses it, your job is making sure he gives it to you.

Playing good solid ABC poker is still the best tactic for NL10 as it is for NL4.

As debdobs said, alot of players can't fold bottom pair so it's not a good idea to bluff.

sillymunch

no no no thats not what i meant lol, i meant they buy in for that much, the fish usually by in for £10 or less because they are usually playing out of there bank roll

AcidMan27

It would help if you stated that in your opening post then lol.

So are you asking do people on the mastercash NL10 tables usually buyin for the full 200bb's ?

If you are then obviously it varies.

Not sure i understand this now , max buy in is £10 =100bb's OR if its a mastercash table £20=200bb's , the players who mostly buy in for alot less are obv playin outta their bankroll though some players like to play shortstacked.

They're not playing outside their bankroll as they don't have one lol. No they just load up a fiver/tenner whatever and play, hence the reason they also play 1 table and play EVERY hand, it's fun to play enit lolz.

Yup I agree with pretty much everything that's already been said but I just had one question.

You're saying the people who aren't buying in for the full BI are clearly fish (which I do tend to agree with but it's not ALWAYS right) so does that mean you sat in for the full £20. If so, that is ludicrious (fun or not) as reading the other threads, that's about 80% of your BR. Even if you sat with £10, it's nearly 50%

Just be happy you didn't get it all in pre with KK, with into AA and feel sick at losing nearly your entire BR.

i sat in with 5 pound haha, so i see your point, i waited for the right cards, and managed to check raise a perticular bluffer, was able to get another pound from my AK because every single player limped in after i raised it to 20p then i hit the ace

For future reference, when you're BR is big enough to play 10NL, I would definitely not recommend min-raising with AK because often the above will happen (getting everyone calling your tiny raise) then someone hits 2pair with 108 and you go broke. AK doesn't play very well 6way...

There's an argument for doing this and an argument for sticking to your usual raise size as you don't want to inflate a pot too big if you're oop.

Don't think there's a right or wrong choice, it's what ever you feel comfortable doing.

I wouldn't worry about it till you have the role for it as it may change by then
