Hey y’all,
So I took a shot at 1000nl on Bovada today. I mainly play 100nl and have been dabbling in 200nl. I thought I’d join a 1000nl table and fold a bunch just to see the level of play. After about an hour, I ended up +$40 which I would call break even given the stakes. Here is what i noticed:
-Every player was buying back to 1k as soon as they dipped below.
-Preflop, these guys are animals. Rarely was preflop not 3 or 4 bet.
-Level of play was heaps above 200nl.
-Practically no tanking. I’d say 90% of decisions were made within 5 seconds
-Blinds were defending religiously. Not as much stealing as I was expecting.
It didn’t take me long to know I did not belong at that table. Back to 100 and 200nl for me!
Curious if anyone here is a winning player at those stakes online?
