[BobboFitos]

boykee is playing 5/10 fr now? Well, that's my laugh of the day!

[Pasterbator]

i didnt play poker for the last 12 days of last month.


I still had my best month ever.

I would like to repeat last month's success.

I think i want some high stakes coaching.

If anyone has interest in working with me, hit me up! I'm bored of 5/10 and stuff.

10/20 is high stakes, 5/10 is mid stakes.

[/ QUOTE ]

I consider myself a midstakes player and I play $5/10 & $10/20. I'd consider $25/50+ to be high stakes.

There is no hard and fast rule for what is what obviously.
