I fail to find consistently full ring games that are 80-160 or higher. the 100 game at PS is always short handed. Ub's 80 games are the same way.

anyone know of the best high stakes limit games online? perhaps i'm checking at bad times.

if you wanna play high stakes, you better wanna play at the very most 6 handed a majority of the time.

Your question referred to online games.

i realize that, what i meant to infer (perhaps i should have been more clear), is that i play those limits regularly, and enjoy them b&m. they are always full ring games. not clear to me why if im going to play these limits, a player would want them to be 6handed max??? what am i missing?

from experience, 80/160 and up go short handed (6 or less)85% of the time online.

The new Party games should be perpetually full at least for awhile.

Cryptologic (betfair, willhill etc) often get their 150/300 pounds game going. That's a bit over $250/$500..... high enough ? /images/graemlins/grin.gif

It's running now (8pm EST), 2 tables, one 6-handed, one 9-handed....

Be forewarned though: the online 100/200 games (or whatever) are nothing like their B&M counterparts. They play MUCH tougher. If you're just a small winner at the Vegas 80/160 games, expect to lose online.

i would agree.

your loss would probably be a result of not calling enough. guys are extremely agro and good hand readers.

so let me throw out this question:
What are the main differences between 30/60 b&m vs. online, and how do these discrepancies differ from a 100 b&m vs. online

My general observations: online players at this stake will bluff or semibluff-raise hands they generally would call/fold with b&m. but as far as i see, i don't see a big difference in the type of play the 30 game vs. 100 game. The biggest difference is that its nearly impossible to find a full ring 80 or 100 game (as someone earlier pointed out)
