Pabst Blue Ribbon.......Are you guys serious? Come on...get a real beer.

I agree that they could do much better, but at least it's not Natty Light.

Good session overall today, up around $900 or so 3-tabling 2/4NL. The games aren't as strong as I expected them to be and flopping a couple sets helps too :)Now I'm only down about $500 overall at 2/4NL.

FT had been a rockgarden at those limits for me, are the games becoming a bit looser?

A bit. It's tough to say because I haven't logged many hands at 2/4NL on FT. I don't mind rocky NL games, there aren't a ton of fish around there but the players I've encountered aren't spectacular.

I don't like the preflop call. I also think you can fold the turn as well because it is possible that you are up against a bigger draw. Against the hands you were up against you have 18% equity. If you make it possible that 3-bettor has AA and Button has JJ or Axdd, you have 15% equity. I'm not saying that it's an easy fold but I think your pair is almost meaningless right here and the correct play is to fold.

money got in on the flop.I'd never call the turn, but this was all on the flop.

10k hands was really nice to me this time.The graph explains it all.

I'm still not saying I could fold when I'm playing, I guess I would be very afraid of one of them holding a bigger draw, which is entirely possible. If one of them has a bigger draw then we have almost no chance of winning this pot. As it turned out, our draw is in the best possible position we can be in with 34% equity, but if one has a set then we have less than 25%. I guess getting over 3-1 it's a call, but it's very close.

My pokerstove isnt working so is it possible for u to put up the #s? I thought for sure I was against at least one set, but I thought my equity was still better than 25% so I called.

gar, frustrating day, my target bankroll before starting to move up to nl10 is $300 dollars. I started today with $285 and finished with $270. The same thing happened when I was about to move up to 2c/5c from 1c/2c, I predict a break even couple of thousand hands :(How do I run good?
