So I'm pretty sure I'm just going to play 10nl until I'm rolled for 50nl ($1k or $1250 not sure yet). I understand how people play at 25nl and I'm not having trouble playing against them so to speak but I just think the 10nl crowd is much more exploitable. I'm confident I can maintain a 10ptbb/100 winrate at 10nl whereas at 25nl I'm not sure but I would not count on 4ptbb/100 which is what I would have to make to equal my expected 10nl rate monetarily. Also, I run so bad at 25nl that I think I'm completely mindfucked and pretty much insta-life tilt as soon as I sit down at a $25 table, which I know is terrible but what can you do. I have consistently beat 50nl in the past, so I'm not worried that I have ran into my poker ceiling, just for some reason Stars 25nl is cursed for me and I'm over it. Kinda strange I guess but I'm serious about the winrates so I really think it's more profitable for me to just do this. I don't know if anyone has any thoughts about this plan or any advice, I'll definitely listen but my mind is pretty made up so it would take a pretty compelling argument to change my mind.

wait some time and take another shot at nl25 man, its really random and unhealthy to go up twice in limits for no apparent reason, if you're frustrated at nl25 imagine what happens if you run bad for double the stakes at nl50.. really really hope you dont do what you are saying, if you want long term success you'll have to get used to the idea of shots failing and retaking them
(and yeah, i dont say this "out of experience" as a sick baller cause im not, im just trying to talk out of pure logic thats all) |

Where is everyone playing nl10? I always hear everyone crushing it and people going allin with middle pair but after playing nl100 for 2k hands I saw no difference whatsoever between the two limits both had atleast 3 regulars on each table just more money was on the line the higher it went, I also watched nl1000 and someone was calling a 4k bet with 36 suited with JUST a flush draw bleh.. if someone seriously makes over 6bb/100 on nl10 they're a witch or running like jesus on fire imo

this is a waste of your time and skill imo. Just move to 25NL and get the good mindset to beat it. Its all in your mind, get over it |

nl25 and nl50 are so similar that you wont really have a problem in terms of a huge skill jump or anything,
but if you cant beat nl25 you arnt going to suddenly beat nl50 and the swings will just be twice as big |

plus the mindfuck will be massive,
moving up from nl10-nl50 is pretty fucking huge, you can easily drop 3 buyins in 100 hands playing nl50 which wud equate to losing 15 buyins at nl10 heh |

it was when I was in school, I played 50nl instead of delivering pizzas and it went to rent/food/beer
the thing is if I can beat 10nl for 10ptbb/100 then I have to make 4 at 25nl but only 2 at 50nl to equal the monetary winrate, so obv it makes more sense to play 50nl once I am rolled for it, I am in this for the money and nothing else so if the money is at 10nl that's where I'm staying and in my experience it is, swings dont bother me (well not more than a normal person) what bothers me is scraping out $0.35 a hand waiting for some faggot to pick up KK vs my AA when I know I can have money thrown at me if I swallow my pride and take a step down |

I mean it makes sense if you think about it its just not what most people do, all I will have to do is make sure I am maintaining that sick winrate at 10nl because if it falls to like 6-7-8 I'll have to think about taking another shot |

I love street_hooker's comments, they're always so ridiculous.
good luck with whatever you do dude. I've been getting buttfucked everytime I goto nl25 too, but I also could be playing better when I do play there, so I dunno. |
