Default Re: Playing 2/4... breaking even

[ QUOTE ]
What is the rake structure in the cardroom you play at? Many B&M 2/4 games are exceedingly difficult to beat simply because of the rake, and if that's the case here then you're doing quite well just to be breaking even. Although yes, 15 live sessions is a ludicrously small sample.

I usually play at the standard AC rake of 10% with a max of $4.

Thanks for your replies. Loose is the key word in these games, and it seems like if you have the cards, you win, if you don't, you don't win. Seems basic, but its annoying. Its more about betting the hands you have and how many people try to outdraw you. I had KK once to a flop of Kd8h2c...and I bet (a big $2) and, everyone (8 other players) called. People chased runner-runner of two clubs to outdraw me, and I feel like if I could've plopped down $25, no one would have chased.

The bigger Q is...since theres been so many times I want to steal a pot and can't with the size of the bet, is NL a better bet to learn and stay away from limit? (I've played NL twice and lost like $40).
