The higher limits you play, the easier it gets.

If you think it's easier to win at 2/4 and 3/6 you should try 15/30 or 30/60. They bascially give you money there.

If you get bored here, you can play something like 50/100 or 150/300 at UB. You can play these heads up, which is even better, b/c then any two cards can win. So, now you can suck out on the other players!

..It's just something I noticed. If you're playing tight aggressive against loose/passive players, you take a lot of bad beats on long shot draws. Have you noticed that before?

Nope. Never happens to me.. maybe you play too tight?

Since I play .5/1 on Empire, I'll comment with a real reply.
The suckouts are brutal, and if your prone to tilting then .5/1 is sucide. You see guys cold call 3 bets with 35s, and catch a runner runner straight, beating Pocket Aces.
Annoying as hell and beats like that happen frequently. However, if you play solid poker you will win a few BB/100 no problem. If your having a downswing don't worry, the money will come back. Just don't tilt, that will ruin things.

I couldnt agree with PokerCat more...I also play quite a bit at .50/$1 on a number of different sites. Its when I tilt from a bad beat that I lose my money there. One has to realize that with 3-4 people going to the river on many tables that bad beats are going to happen. Cant tell you the number of times Ive seen miracle cards hit folks when they shouldnt have been in the hand in the first place. That's the nature of .50/$1, adjust your game accordingly.

Oh, and get some rakeback and whore those bonuses..... [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I have cleared at least 20K at low limits not including bonuses and rake kickbacks(if you include that it's closer to 30K) and I for the life of me can't beat those scrubs at .5/1 for much in real dollars or BB. I just don't adjust to playing 4 clueless retards at once. The suckouts you get are strange beyond belief......... [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]
