Everyone please stay out of the 10/20, it's already bad enough.

FWIW back in the day when I played 5/10 I won way more at 3/6 than 5/10. I'm pretty sure I ran horrendously in the 5/10 but I am also pretty sure the 3/6 was way softer.

TBH if you guys are playing the 5/10 online and plan on doing so for a little while you should get money on a few sites. I used to never do this and i hate myself for it.

why? i'd say this should more likely be applied to people who play higher than 10/20 since there are far fewer games going at any given point.

Yeah I think everyone at 5/10 should go to 10/20.

man that game we were in the other day was tough [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

but it does seem to vary a lot, sometimes I can't find a decent table and sometimes I'm like a kid in a candy shop.

Tell me about it, I think I'm averaging 2.6 other 2p2 at my tables for the week, and that's with decent game selection.

On the other hand, the lineup for the 10/20 table where I ran goot last night (brag) was like:

60/30/1
50/10/2
50/10/2
40/5/.7
30/10/1

i don't think you COULD play 10/20+ without doing so. But if you table select as much as people on this forum say they do I don't know how you couldn't have money on a few sites and actually play a session every time you wanted to.

The Pokerstars bonus is luring a lot of good players to move down and multi-table to get the fpps (I think.) I KNOW the games are much, much tougher this week and I'm thrilled to find one weakie at a table which has mostly TAG's. Once the promotion ends they will likely diffuse to their old sites. This must be what WPEX is like all the time.

Sometimes there are better games at 10/20 but the variance is a beeeahtch and I need to steer clear of those for now.

The key is to find the TAGs that suck. Like me for instance.

The key is to find the TAGs that run abysmally. Like me for instance.

10-20 is usually much better but after dropping 600 bets this week 5-10 I cant even think of trying 10-20.

Wow!! I thought my 500 BB bankroll would ensure I never went broke playing 6 player tables........Are other good poker players having 600 BB swings?? [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

However, I only play 1 table at a time.
