Sneaked in a sng yesterday while a dodgy Tagalog soap opera played. Somehow managed to sign up for a limit game. With poker office keeping track of stats and some soap opera action catching my attention I fold and fold. I check in the big blind and its checked around. I decide to bet half pot and take it down. I'm surprised that the blinds are so high and there are 10 players left but some more soap opera action distracts. After 25 minutes of play and still 8 people left I'm in danger of getting blinded out and I decide to raise a marginal hand when its folded to me on the button. I can't work out where the box to type bets in has gone and end up clicking min-raise button and its folded to me.
Finally it dawns on me for the past thirty minutes I've been playing Limit! I end up chip I end up chip leader and start to apply pressure on the medium stacks when we are on the bubble. I end up with half of the tables chips in front of me at one stage. I end up going too far and pressuring second stack without a hand and this time it seems like he is willing to go to showdown and I have to fold giving up a pile of chips. I wait for the bubble to burst. Next hand I raise with AQ. Check raise when a queen hits. Check raise again on the turn to get it allin. He has 72 giving him a pair of 2's but hits another 2 on the river to knock me out.
Still pretty dull compared to NL but good for a change.

That's not bad - good going to not realise, but still a reasonable result. I just checked my stats on Poker Edge and I'm officially a fish on Full tilt. I'm LAG pre flop and passive post flop. I think this is due to all the HU games I've played where everybody gets very tricky trappy post flop, or maybe I'm just crap?
heads up on full tilt it is then Deadly3
Just as I planned.....
Yeah I'm a bit wary of the red-fish ranking on Poker-edge. If you are playing heads-up mostly if you weren't given the classification loose I'd be worrying. Calling in position in headsup can be scarier than raising I guess. The Poker Edge red-fish is one I'm not giving too much heed to. A lot of players will be bombs in one site and red-fish in another.
Also unless you subscribe you get all games bunched together so you don't know if the person is usually playing tourneys, HU, FR or SH.
I watched the demo for the first time and it shows you a bunch of hands by the player. Taking the example of trips or flush draw if you found they always played them the same that would save a lot of money. I'm sure it would save money but not sure how much.
