aba,

I respect the fact that you moved up quickly and took some shots. It was a slight risk but it definitely paid off for you. Im just curious when you decided to move to the big games, ie over 2knl, and how you did at the begining against good players.

First I hate party and I really liked fulltilt. So I began palying some at tilt when I was playing 3/6. Even though there were far fewer games to choose from and much harder opponents I fel tthat it was worth it not to have to deal with party. I then built a siable roll on tilt until I had a enoguh to take on the 25/50 game. At that time the 25/50 on tilt didn't run nearly as often as it does now. It seems liek there is always a game going now. As I got more and more comforatable with the 10/20 games at tilt I realized that it was mainly the same game as teh 25/50. So when I had ~80Kish I gave the 25/50 on tilt a shot and didn't ahve a problem. By that time I had also moved some money to UB and was playing 10/25 there and then made the jump to 25/50 and didn't have any major problems.

I have a really big roll for 1knl and a pretty big roll for 2knl yet I mainly play 1knl becuase on party the 6 max games are full of EM2, Samo, BldSwttrs, lolo, Tizerd and such players. I feel like it would be a little silly to move up just so I can play those guys on 6 tables every day. Do you think I should stay at 1k, move off of party, or play some other games on other sites. I feel like a giant vagina after reading your story becuase we were in the same place in february, and while im very proud and happy with my results, I see you and think that I could be doing more. This was a little rambly, but any ramblings or feelings you have on the subject would be interesting.

I am probalby not the best person to ask about these games, but I played like 400 hands at party 10/20 last month and I was amazed how good the games are. I mean multitabling 10/20 on party is like printing money. Players are very weak and exploitable. I defenitly think you should move up and if you are worried about the party regs, and I woudlnt' be since there are so many games at party you can mainly avoid them, you should consider moving to UB, tilt, or stars. Remeber tho there will be better players overall at these sites so you have to deciede if it is worth leaving party. Aslo if you never push yourself and play against good opponents you will never be able to be a really sucsessful poker player.
