You can see my progress towards Supernova on page 1 in the initial post. Thanks for following!

I'm gonna drop down to NL25 for some mental relaxation after a terrible run at NL50._frown: I'll try again after some time when I'll have a nice bankroll for myself.

Thank you very much for the kind words, gadget! However, I doubt I deserve that much recognition for beating NL25 (and most likely 50, if I had a proper bankroll). I'm basically just a "feel player" with decent theoretical knowledge. There are much better players than me at the higher stakes.

However, I am proud of myself that I got to this decent level with no coaching ever._pleased: It affords me a good life in my country.

The beginner's guide on how to bleed money with aces:

Step 1: 3bet small out of position.
Step 2: Check to give free cards on a drawy board, just in case you didn't give your opponent good enough odds to hit a monster against your now vulnerable overpair. Bear in mind that you should still be out of position for this to work best.
Step 3: If your opponent bets the flop, don't even think about raising to protect your hand against the multitude of draws that are on the board.
Step 4: When you are quite certain that your opponent has at least 2 pairs 80%+ of the time because he bet the turn again without any draw completing instead of getting a free card as the pre-flop caller, check/SHIP IT!

Seems complicated? Maybe an example will help!
