aspoker,

dont jump into 400nl 6m. i did that last year, way overrolled for 200nl full ring, convinced myself i needed to move up, also convinced myself that 6 max was EZ and i should play.

I promptly lost 8k. Start at a lower limit, unless you have prior good results obv.

All,

Body Man D hooked me up with a 3k transfer. I still need another 2k in Stars money. I have FTP. Don't pm me unless you're a respected regular with good rep and good poker results.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm basically a 6m player who is playing full ring so i can 12-16 table and get to supernova quickly.

I usually 6 table 6m, so that isnt really helping me make supernova.

I've had really good results at 100NL 6m, then 200NL 6m, then solid results playing only like 10k hands of 400NL 6m. I basically switched to full ring right after moving up to 400NL because I was so set on getting to supernova (i'm probably being irrational/stupid in my supernova chasing, but whatever).

I might start back up at 200 6m, but I don't think it would be a horrible decision for me to start at 400 either. Who knows.
