Trips/top kicker vs. limp-reraiser

[DasBusen]

Actually, the question to me regarding why I play 1-2 usd is not a subject for this thread. But I shall answer it just because I assume there are some readers in this low stakes forum who are quite new to poker and have some ideas to make a living from it.

The swing when multitabling 1-2 is for me around 200-300 usd, earning around 20usd/hour. I do most money from the promotion system.

If I multitabling 5-10, my swing would probably not be less than 3000 usd. I would have to pay more attention to the game, probably multitabling less and face more skillfull opponents. My earning would also be more insecure and rely more from the game than from promotions. I would also have to consider the question of collusion and cheating more serious when the stakes are higher.

Temporarily I play up to 3-6 (few times 5-10) at AP and so far I did not have any problem to beat the game. But my experience from the 2-4 and 3-6 games are limited so I can't say that I would beat the game in the long run. But probably I would, like I also did beat the live game I played for years at 15-30 stakes.

So there are no obvious reason to move up in stakes. I am a grinder who shall secure food at the table and money for the bills. To play 1-2 at AP is for me like a sure bet. If you have poker as your income, you never take any risks. If poker is the game who shall make you rich and famous, forget what I say.
