GGpoker Myths and Legends
Hello!
Been:
- playing 100z (mainly) and reg tables at PokerStars with a very good results
- PIOsolver 'grinder'
Heard that:
- GGpoker 'rush and cash' is almost unbeatable due to rake
Now:
- switched to GGpoker but still PokerStars enthusiast
- been grinding 50nl, now moved to 100nl
- verified GGpoker games 'what they say'. And again 'you will never know till you try'
I know this is '**** sample'. I spewed a bunch at 50nl rnc and don't think I hit my 'run good' though this definetely wasn't the worst one. I still have to 'learn' this pokersite.
Thoughts:
- should have been at least 5bbEV winner at this sample (If I exactly knew what to expect which is impossible - 'try on you own')
- soft pools and good traffic 24/7
- high rake BUT decent rewards/promos
Expectations:
- 5bbEV winrate at 100nl rnc
- grinding solid volume (100k hands +/month)
What do you think about expectations? Maybe these are delusions?
Life:
- recently been an enthusiast of self-improvement in every area:
a) physically - lost 25kgs and reached my wanted weight
b) professional - grinding PIOsolver and catching 'AHA moments"
c) psychological - in general - what makes one to do something/think about sth in a specific way
d) spiritual - big fan of David Hawkins
Till the next time good fellas!

I have no proof, but of the main sites that are still relevant, GG has the nittiest pool, or that is my impression playing there, on stars and bodog. I think it is as nitty as Party was the months I played there. High rake, preflop exploits being less profitable due to the preflop rake, and an overall nitty pool makes it harder to turn a profit.
That PlayItSmart guy, which seems to be a very good player, managed to get 4 bb/100 at 200nl rnc if I'm not mistaken, and he's very exploit oriented, so if you aren't, 5 bb ev, even though at the immediate lower stakes, might be delusional. But GL, I hope you do it and prove me wrong.
Sorry, apparently he did 8 bb/100, forget my logic above 😀
