Is there a difference between 10NL and 25NL??

[Cloodie]

I started off beating 25nl for about 3.5BB but then went through a bad spell (bad beats, tilt, more bad beats etc). Thankfully I got through this but now, after 14,000 hands I find that I only really break even and my BB/100 is now only 0.52.

Whenever I get to a certain number of buyins I drop down to 10NL and I'm beating it for 5BB/100.

As far as I can see the play looks pretty similar and I certainly play the same way on each lever (according to my PT stats), so is there a difference in the games that I'm missing?

I just think 25Nl players have a little more understanding of some NL concepts. I see a lot more slowplaying at 25NL which I have misunderstood for weak passive play. I only have like 3K hands at the limit though so maybe someone can better answer your question.

There are a few 25nl players who play constantly (for a living?) and alot more regulars. In general the play is slighty better, but not alot better.

It doesn't make sense. If you can crush 25NL, why the hell wouldn't you play higher and make way more money?

Also, I haven't played 25NL in forever, but IIRC, the rake is insane there.

3.5-4 ptbb/100 is the rake. Too lazy to figure the exact.
