This is another one of those traditional thoughts. I'm usually playing even as low as $2/4 with about 4-5 regulars at the table who are all very solid players, some of them 2p2-ers. The 5/10 crowd has moved down to include these limits in their table selection because of the poor state of the games. Sure, there are still some idiots, and the regulars fight like starved dogs over the bones they throw.

It always bothers me when someone says something like, "We are all bad players, else we wouldn't be playing here at the $3/6." Hello, wake-up call, you're probably playing with some of the site's finest right now. Just because they don't have a bankroll to play $30/60 doesn't mean they are poor players. Just look at the type of plays that are made; in the old days I was never re-isolation 3-bet by a marginal hand...

Great post, Bob. I completely agree.
