Poker dead?

No, but I'm dying

At least my BR is. Last short Zoom session (169 hands) I won one pot. Well, I won a few preflop. I saw 21 flops, 3 showdowns, and won 1 of them. This means card-dead for real. I'm reasonably loose, so these numbers are extreme At least I didn't lose a big pot as I usually do. It took me a little longer to lose a BI this time.

I almost got a split pot too. The board came a mile away from my hand, so I checked behind flop and turn. The river filled the last gap for the gutshot I had developed. The big blind donked pot-sized, and I thought, well, at least I'll get half a pot (albeit half a small one). But no, he had the nuts

Perhaps it's time to play limit again and perhaps salvage the remains of my BR?

Two minutes and 4 BI later I decide to call it quits. You are supposed to stack off with KK preflop in the small blind vs the button right?

I actually managed to play 20 min without losing a single stack

Not that I won any pots, well, not any showdowns at least. But I did still win a little by simply floating, bluffing and 3-betting preflop. But what can you do when the deck hates you? Simply stay away from showdowns.

NL2 Zoom

As you can see, the last 11k, or so, hands, even the red line is nice

NL2 is a very "small game", probably smaller than 2c/4c FL, at least if you are tight. I am not. NL2 Zoom is just so much softer than, say, Tc/20c FL. I'm not going to play NL2 Zoom only, but mostly when I get bored with FL. Next project is to become proficient (= steadily beating the smallest stake) in one more game. I beat the smallest stakes in all stud games, so I guess it's Omaha and O8 next time I get bored. And 2-7 Triple Draw. Then I'll replace Gus Hansen
