I'm pretty sure it's going to get worse too, the dollar has been overvalued for a while thanks to the size of the defecit. Good job Bush, I have lost $1k in the past week alone thanks to you.

Can we sue the US president?

Will it get better any time soon? I have too much dollars online (I'm Dutch). Thank god I had a $13k downswing at the end of the month! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Good timing!

I expect not, the way I see it is that the defecit in the US is still there, and it's getting worse. That's one of the big forces that is weakening the dollar, and people have been expecting it to fall for a while.

I'm not an expert on this kind of thing though, but as I have another decent reason for moving down (more fun), I'm going to cash out and do so, and hopefully it'll save me some money from depreciation too.

because 2/4 = more monies + less variance?

[/ QUOTE ]

Not if you're as good as straate. Less variance sure but more money? A solid winner at 10/20 makes a ton more cash than the biggest winner at the pokerstars 2/4 nl game, which straate may be.

id be interested in hearing other peoples opinions on this

if he is the biggest winner, if he can beat 10/20, at what point it's better to play 2/4 than 10/20 depending on winrates and variance, or if i'm a pokergod?

Engrish?

Obviously your winrate at 10/20 only needs to be 20% of that at 2/4 to make the same monies. So if straate can sustain 10ptbb/100 at 2/4 he'd only need to make 2ptbb/100 at 10/20 to match it, but the variance would be way higher. I think if you could do 3ptbb/100 at 10/20 that would be the point at which it's better than 2/4. But 3/6 or 5/10 might be more suitable obviously

Maybe, still it's foolish to say 2/4 = more monies than 10/20
