STAT: Moving up to 5/10, ok?

VikingSW · #1 03-12-2006, 01:39 PM

Hi,
Started to play SH about 3 months ago, which I really enjoy compared to fullring. I have been playing 3/6 lately and has had a good run with the cards and will now take a shot at 5/10. I have the BR, but not that many hands on 3/6 so I am posting my stats, which are 50% 5-handed and 50% 6-handed, for your comments on what I need to change moving to 5/10. (I know that the number of hands are few...). I am planning to spend max 100BB on 5/10 before backing down again.

Seriously play more hands before you move up. You may just be running hot though your stats are damn sexy. Aggression factor is a bit high though

You are most likely running good but imo you are still ready.

take a shot w/ a set stop loss, theres nothing wrong with that.

I disagree with this statement completely. He's gonna need it for the stupid aggression that happens at 5/10.

OP, though you don't have many hands in, I say give it a go while u are running hot. You might as well pump up the BR during this time so that when the inevitable downswing happens, you will have a big roll for it

I may be wrong about the AF factor since I play 1/2.

About the pumping the bankroll while you are hot, he still does have a chance of getting roadkilled in 5/10. He's bound for a downswing somewhere sometime. I wouldn't be suprised if it happens when he moves up

Exactly what I was thinking. I don't have enough hands to know if I can even play poker at these levels, but at least I have the confidence and the BR to give it a try.

Yeah... sounds like he read one too many books by Ken Warren.
