First off, any and all input is welcome. Over the last 3 years or so I pretty much completely switched to playing only 6max holdem online after like 5 years of just playing full ring. At first it was quite a struggle with a long period of adjustment where I was pretty much just breaking even forever and eventually started showing some decent yet never great (>2bb/100) over a lot of hands. I play mostly 2/4 and 3/6 limit but just feel I may be too tight to move up but am really struggling on how to loosen up any more. I don't read 4 as much as I did back in the day before it came a douche infested site but started looking around at a lot of PT stat type posts. I guess from the sound of it you need to be playing with a vpip of over 30 to be near optimal which just really seems unfathomable to me. Over a large sample of 4-6 tabling I ran at 26/18/2.5 in 2/4 and 27/20/2.4 in 3/6. Do these stats seem way too tight? I obv understand that the higher you play the more your game will likely just naturally loosen up somewhat due to more steal opps/having to defend spots but I think I'm pretty high in some of that already too with 40% attempt to steal and and 38% Fold BB to steal and going to showdown 40%. I guess I just found it somewhat shocking that these stats are considered a nit these days and looking for advice on whether or not I need to open up my game even more. I try to get to like 32/24 some nights as I'm playing and I just feel like I've gone on monkey tilt doing so.

Here's a topic that I think a lot of people may think differently than I do but I wanted to bring it up for discussion because I've taken quite a bit of shit over the years for my view on this and have even been called a slowroller once which was actually pretty ridiculous. You call someone down on the river or call an all in on an earlier street and when it comes time to show hands the bettor just sits there saying he missed or whatever holding on to his cards waiting for you to show so he can then muck. Most of the time the guy who called will then show his hand, the bettor mucks and the caller takes the pot down but the bettor never had to show his hand unless someone asks to. I on the other hand will sit there and keep letting the guy say he missed or whatever until he either throws his hand into the muck (which I then put a tip on top of my cards and hand them to the dealer without showing as well)or turns it up. Sometimes I fall on my standard here and just turn up my hand after too much delay but I really hate it. I feel like I paid for the right to see my opponents hand and gain any information I can from doing so, especially if it's a deeper NL or PL game where I may have had to make a really tough call on the end. Am I in the wrong for taking this approach because I know it seems to irritate people a bit? To be fair whenever I'm on the other end of this I always either turn my hand face up or straight into the muck without really hesitating one bit regardless of my hand.

My buddy is currently on like his 3rd xbox in the last year, for whatever reason they keep going bad on him. He keeps returning them and getting a new one but he seems to be getting fed up with it. Has anyone else had the problem that it seems to slowly get worse and worse where the console won't read the disc? Is this common with the unit or is he just unluckiest person around on this?

People who spoke with TODAY'S TMJ4 said they earned money for themselves. But, police say they fined a man for running a ring of water-bottle-selling kids last summer.

Obv brought the family with him.
