Well, I am taking a shot at 5/10 after doing well at 2/4 and also 3/6. My general impression of 5/10 after 2k hands (+1.1BB/100) is that the good players a much better than their counterparts below, yet the bad players are worse! Does anyone else share this opinion or is it just sample size? The good players are still out playing me. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

This winning 3/6 player would love to hear any and all comments from players making the jump to 5/10 from 3/6.

Frankly, it appears terrifying to me. Paradise doesn't have a 4/8 game, so to go from .5/1 to 1/2 to 2/4 to 3/6, but then to 5/10 ... well, that's a disproportionately bigger jump than the previous levels.

I switched last month to exclusively 5/10 from 3/6 and found that 5/10 6max is really tough, but full ring is pretty easy. You have to learn to count pots in terms of big bets. Count losses and winnings in terms of big bets. It's not money anymore. It's bets /images/graemlins/smile.gif
