I'm sure this is explained in articles and here

is NL section of this forum.


i'm not a sss not a bss i'm somewhere on the middle i think not sure where to look


As has been said elsewhere in the forums, don't play a mix of SSS and BSS, it's suicide!

I'd advise to go with SSS to begin with, as it's fairly simple to play compared to BSS. Stick with the SHC (Starting Hands Chart) given in the NL SSS Article and you should do fine. They don't play any hands from 22-88 because it's not profitable enough, and even 88-TT is only profitable in certain situations.

If you have the BR for it, you can try the BSS, which is slightly more complicated, and involves all pairs (I think.. I haven't looked at the articles yet) for some strategy.

Always read the articles though, and stick with one or the other

I'm not NL player but I advise you to follow PokerStrategy's articles.
This is reason why you are here, right?

So choose and stick to the SSS or BSS.


well from 100 hands i play about 10 and win 8 but the 2 i loose it's because small pairs and often i lose alout on them

That's nothing :)
100 hands is not a sample size at all. You can do 100 hands in 15 minutes.
10k is relatively enough big sample size to talk about loses and stuff.

Just stick to SSS and BBB articles and you'll do fine.
