i had a nice session

today and went up about 5 buyins in 500 hands. it seemed like won every single pot and after 7 tabling the last days i found it way easier to follow table dynamics only playing 3 to 4 tables. i made some good calls because people really played back at me and i could build up a very laggy image by stealing and two barreling, although i wasn't too out of line at all. what i realized was that there are some players that once you have a bad image, they label you and never give you credit for anything. others see that you're cooling down a bit and react accordingly and you also have to look out for that and readjust to it.

There was one regular that tilted a bit on me because i had position and knew how to exploit his 50% cbet rate. actually that is not too hard to do..
after checkfolding a lot of flops he was checking on a dream flop for a cbet in a blindwar. it was k82 rainbow and he checkraised me after thinking a bit. i felt like he suddenly realized that i was punishing him for not cbetting more and i called in position. he didn't bluff on multiple streets at all so my plan was to either fold to a turn lead or check behind and bet the river to get him off small pockets or some ace high kind of hand. i turned a pair and checked behind. on the river i wasn't quite sure wheter to bet or just checkbehind because i thought my hand could be best. i decided to bet an amount i would bet to get value out of a queen or an eight, hoping he realizes this and folds that hands. i really thought that i got into this players way of thinking and i was really surprised as he called the river (maybe with ace high?). maybe he was way more on tilt as i first thought..

right now i am thinking about taking a shot on nl200. i don't know wheter i should go on with my bankroll rule of 25 buyins or extend that amount since swings gonna be bigger the higher i get. anyway i will take some days off from poker, start mining nl200 and maybe play some two table nl200 in 3 to 4 days.
