What do you feel is the biggest diff between 1/2-2/4, my current online game, and 5/10? 30/60?
<font color="blue"> Aggression and second level thinking. At low stakes when you miss a flop and your opponent misses the flop, you will win if you were the last aggressor. At higher stakes, you will have to fight for that pot. Your opponent is thinking you missed it too and you have to beat him by using his over-optimism against him. The ways to do this are not nearly as clear as the ways to beat a "fit or fold" player.</font>
I've played as high as 30/60 live and to me there was very little diference outside of aggression between that game and my normal 8/16 game. Did I just find some good games, or is 30/60 live just as horrible (pretty sure I alreadt know the answer)? The NorCal and Vegas games always seem juicy...
<font color="blue"> Sounds about right but you are understating the aggression IMO. I would venture a guess that you ran well in the 30/60 game you played and so the aggression didn't bother you so much because you always had a hand. When you don't have a hand the aggression ranges from annoying to very dangerous. </font>
At what point/limit, do you think online games become glaringly more difficult to beat if any? Live?

Online games are way more difficult at micro and small stakes than equivalent live games. I mean a 4/8 game at the Bellagio plays like a 10c/20c game online probably. The high high stakes games live are difficult because there are no equivalents online, but I'd say at 100/200 and above the games are fairly equivalent.
