Losing at low limit or step it up to high?

[Bill King]

I have been playing B&M low NL games that are full of complete donks. 6 players per flop, a total messy game. No matter how i play i cant consistently win and i believe i am a decent player, and am a winning player when playing against solid players. I have just had trouble keeping a solid bankroll while being in college with bills and such. I am a student of the game and work very hard at it.

my question would be: should i wait and build up a bankroll, or keep playing the low games that are pretty much a crapshoot?

ive scouted the 20/40 limit games well and believe i could do well at that game.

You are inevitably going to get responses telling you to "move up so people will respect your raises." They are joking. Do not do this. If you are interested in playing limit, you need to get SSH. You should pay special attention to pages 16-18, "Where the Money Comes From." I can't really provide any recommendations for NL books since I play limit, but if you can't beat the low limit games, you won't be able to beat the higher games either. Grind it out and work your way up. There's something to learn at each level.

If you are good you should kill donk games. Its nl, you have no excusses. If they call with bad odds, then you did your job. Another option is to raise more.

I have been playing high school basketball games that are full of complete donks. 3 players not boxing out for rebounds, a total messy game. No matter how I play I can't consistently get to the ball, and I believe I am a decent player, and am a winning player when playing against solid players. I have just had trouble keeping a solid dribble and jumpshot while being in college with actual defenders and such. I am a student of the game and work very hard at it.

my question would be: should I wait and actually learn the game, or keep playing the high school games that are pretty much a crapshoot?

I've scouted the NBA games well and believe I could do well at that game.

Try some critical thinking and logic. Then get back to us.

The table is full of idiots at 20/40...go higher still.

Move up so people will respect your raises.

I hear at 100/200 they respect some raises but not all.

If you can't beat the 3-6, don't go to 20-40.

We didn't have a pot below 15 bets for the two hours I was at one 20-40 table.

So picture your 'crapshoot' but instead of calling, everyone's raising.
