stupid question. i guess i should learn to read people better so i can muck full houses and nut flushes when i know their beat.

Hey man relax, it can happen to all of us. I'm steaming right now having just lost 40 big bets in my 5-10 game. However I have another 360 at home to fall back on. These swings happen, which is why you need to have a 400 BB bankroll at least if you wanna play this game seriously. Forget about 20-40 or even 10-20 until you have 400 big bets at those levels.
You can be the best player in the world but if you can't manage your bankroll properly you WILL go bust.

my reasoning for moving up in limits is that it seems that i win smaller pots against better players and lose bigger pots against weak players.i truly believe if i played against better players during my last break session,although i probably would have had a losing session,i would not have gone broke, maybe even won a little.im i wrong for thinking this?

Yes. It was a stupid question. This is a stupid thread. It belongs here.

It's your money. Just send Hobbs a PM before you take a shot at the 20 game.

Read, then ask questions. Not go broke, then ask questions.
