Default ABC Poker Still Effective?

What's the highest level that a 6 man NL player could play "ABC" poker and still make at least 3 bb/100?

Assumptions:

1. Online--American sites
2. You don't tilt or tilt very little
3. You have expert bankroll management
4. You can handle variance

So basically if you are mentally stronger than your opponents, but play basic ABC poker, how high could you play effectively before your opponents figure you out and exploit you?

I'd say no higher than NL100 and probably NL50.

There's a perfect place for ABC poker.

It's called full ring.

I agree with slugger, not over NL100

It depends what you think ABC poker is. If it's putting in money when you think your hand range is ahead of your opponent's hand range, then it beats every game there is.

I believe this is a good definition of ABC poker, and it won't win past small stakes.

Maybe it's just FullTilt, but ABC poker works fine for me at NL200.

[/ QUOTE ]Ok: You bet when you think it has positive equity against your opponent's hand range. However you want to word the definition so that it includes betting when you know you are/may be behind.

There's plenty of ways to play "ABC poker" and still be making money at any level. Unless you're a total nit that is.
