Before and After the story of my new poker life. Fixed LimitOkay. So i have been a proud member of TAGpoker since november 09 .. gosh that is long ago haha. That was the times where borg was playing the $2s and look at him now GZ Mate you deserve it haha. So since FT closed down i have moved to PokerStars. great site.
I have tried lots of different games and since im here obviously i have tried husng and brokestars coaching *thumbs up* I just couldn't get it to work as much as i wanted to.
But now i found my newfound love Fixed Limit. and just as a note. Don't think Limit isn't swingy. It really is .. BUT i started out playing the 5c/10c with the little knowledge i had. and i did poorly. I couldn't understand why the fish/whales always had to donk. and id call down with AK or middle pair only to see them show up with top pair. I would bet kings until they raised the river when the backdoor flush comes in and to my horror seeing they only called two streets in hopes of hitting their backdoor flush with likes of J2s .. Hard times and still is. It will test your patience and push those little buttons to your tilt seeing all this bad play.
Free Money ! Only words i can say about it.. Oh well first here is my graph of 5c/10c before i got 4 hours of coaching from a very successful midstakes limit player Leader.
he turned me from being an 18/9 stats player to 27/18 - 28/21 player. Got me thinking , posting hands , watching limit videos of successful midstakes players to get into their thinking mind. So Leader and I decided to return to 2c/4c as my br couldn't handle anymore 5c/10c loss. so this is from when we started until we ended the coaching
NOTE: Keep in mind that i accidentally purged all my hands in the middle of that graph and had to retrieve as many hands as i could. But couldn't get all but its missing around 6 dollars of profit so actually im 10 dollars up in 2c/4c
and finally my bankroll got up to $50 which is 500 big bets. which is my super safe bankroll management plan "standard" is 300bigbets that is as standard as 25 - 30 is to no limit games. So i started playing 5c/10c again and here is my new graph of 5c/10c (the previous one of 5c/10c is the first graph)
have had a bit of swingy day today. so thats the reason why the last part is a little up and down. card dead day which sucks obviously
And so that concludes it. Fixed Limit is my new love and im working hard on getting better. my goal is to reach the midstakes which is 5/10 - 10/20
My overall graph without the missing 6 dollars in profit from 2c/4c
Thanks for reading to those who did .. Good Luck in your games and may you run like god.

Hey mate, Why not start a BR thread? I know you already have your own poker blog but maybe start one here and update etc to get more followers. Congrats on finding and sticking with a game that suits you well. Good Luck!

I'm sure broker isnt limiting his website to just a few games and you never know you might inspire more people to play fixed limit. People can see where you have come from and if you get to mid stakes like you wish then it would be a great story to follow.
Make a BR thread and start crushing it!
