Friend Destroying $11s, should he move up?
Right now my friend is beating the Party $10+1s for 41% ROI with an ITM of about 52%. He 4-tables as well. His bankroll is a little over $8,000. Would you recommend that he move up? What level should he be playing?
Thanks in advance.

This is so obviously a joke, but I REALLY don't want it to be.
If this isn't a joke, you made my WEEK.

He should play the Step 5s and turn his 8k into 80k! [/ QUOTE ] I disagree, I think he should step down and play the 6s. I wouldn't want to play with anything less than a 1200 buy-in bankroll. He should definitely quit his job, though.

Sadly, this is not a joke. My friend is a very talented poker player, but is probably the most risk averse inidividual on the planet. I made this post in the hopes that he would realize how ridiculous he is.

[ QUOTE ] ...but is probably the most risk averse inidividual on the planet. [/ QUOTE ] He shouldn't be playing poker, then. [/ QUOTE ] Stupid reply and sadly so typical for the whole 2+2 forum. I'm also a pretty risk averse player and I've made more than 5 figures on 10's and 20's so far this year. I 12-table and play an average of 60 sngs a day (11s and 22s). With rakeback I make an average of 5$/sng. Each month thats $5000+ with pretty low variance which in Sweden is more than the figures a doctor makes, and I can pick my own hours etc better. Sure, it's very possible that if I had an more aggressive (or normal for that matter) bankroll strategy that I might be making $15k+ a month by now but it's also possible I would make way less than 5000$ if I constantly had to move up and down because of variance and the fact that I'm maybe not a winning multitabling player in the 100s and 200s during the hours I play the most (3am - 7am, 2pm - 4pm EST) So tell me again, why should'nt I play poker?
