mathman1115

I moved down in levels to work on my game. After just 2500 hands i am already down 60BB because no one knows how to use a fold button. I raise with two high cards and get 4 callers and can't hit a flop. I flop a set and lose to a gutshot. AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
Below is just 1 of many exciting hands i've been a part of. Critique if you like, i'll take any advice at this point.
Needless to say i am just very frustrated right now.

That's limit. They don't think about what their hand is, they just look at how much they have to call. You CANNOT move people off a hand in limit at that level...

That's rough. You lost to pretty hearts.

I think the key to winning at LLHE is to win big pots with high suited connectors. One pair doesn't win many pots in no-foldem holdem. JTs, QJs and KQs win bigger pots than premium pairs, and lose smaller pots. Suited A's and K's play well too.
