Default Pokerstars 5-10 games are terrible

Wow, took a few months off and jumped back on this week and these games are awful. 22% to the flop every table! What happened?

Time of day? I have noticed that a lot of people in this forum play that game and when I check out the games I recognize a few names on ever table. I can't imagine playing that game as my regular game unless I was trying to win via the VIP club.

Just playing during the day Pacific Time, might not be the ideal playing time.

To be honest, at this point, I think that playing 3/6 during the week and 5/T on the weekends might be +EV. And is it me, or does 10/20 often look juicier than the 5/T?

10-20 looks much better. But much more expensive.

10-20 is usually much better but after dropping 600 bets this week 5-10 I cant even think of trying 10-20.

Everyone please stay out of the 10/20, it's already bad enough.

FWIW back in the day when I played 5/10 I won way more at 3/6 than 5/10. I'm pretty sure I ran horrendously in the 5/10 but I am also pretty sure the 3/6 was way softer.

TBH if you guys are playing the 5/10 online and plan on doing so for a little while you should get money on a few sites. I used to never do this and i hate myself for it.

why? i'd say this should more likely be applied to people who play higher than 10/20 since there are far fewer games going at any given point.

i don't think you COULD play 10/20+ without doing so. But if you table select as much as people on this forum say they do I don't know how you couldn't have money on a few sites and actually play a session every time you wanted to.
