Re: some observations about the split
hey Dids,
I agree with you. I check out SSHUSH multiple times a day. MrWookie and StellarWind have just been made mods there too which will help as well. But honestly, i'm not going to reply to Joe Schmoe's 0.50/1 preflop post - there's a whole community building there that is taking care of it wonderfully. I will, however, open up a post from a regular and see if I have any advice to offer. Surf |

Re: some observations about the split
I have been at 5-10 since Feb. I have played 165k hands there. My first 80k hands were at a rate of .69BB/100. My last 80k hands are 1.03BB/100. I also 8 table so thats at least half the reason my winrate is nothing goregous.
I have the bankroll for 10-20, I am just scared of the swings. I have taken some shots at 10-20 (only 2-3 tabling) and at 3.84BB/100 over 9k hands. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Come December 1st, I am gonna make the jump full-time to 10-20 and just commence my naive 8 tabling ways and pray I dont get crushed. The biggest reason for this is because of the forum split. I feel if I can learn more in a more signal less noise ratio, I'll be ok. The new SHUSH makes me want to jump ship from there and actually try and get better. After reading SHUSH for the last couple of days, I feel out of place there. It makes me sad I am still where I am at in my career. I look forward to the dozens of flames my hand posts will garner as they will be played poorly. I hope you are all ready to take B00T's L00T. I think honestly, I am looking for a reason to stay at 5-10. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] |

Re: some observations about the split
i think the split is awesome.
no more sifting through .5/1 threads. no more weekly "need a preflop chart" threads. |

Re: some observations about the split
I agree. I understand that the split is great for 10/20 and higher stakes players but for 5/10$ players it's terrible.

Re: some observations about the split
When this split was first discussed I played 5/10. Now I have played 100K 10/20 and have no plans to ever move down again. The same could be true for you experienced 5/10 players in a few months. Really the difference is more a bankroll issue than anything else, no matter what some say... |

Re: some observations about the split
You could just post your 5/10 hands here replacing the "5/10" text with "10/20". [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

[img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [/ QUOTE ] Back in the "glory days" of HUSH (yes, that is what I will call them hereforth), in one of the countless posts on the split, I suggested doing just that: but some killjoy pointed out that I might get inaccurate advice, more appropriate for 10/20 than 5/10. If I really wanted to pull this off, I'd have to start posting only well-played hands, so as to lend some plausibility to the claim that I'd actually have moved up; I'm not sure I can find enough well-played hands to make that claim stand up. |
