Re: 1/2 Help Needed.. Who\'s Succeeded? What Changes Are Needed?
 

This is all excellent advice. The only thing I'd add is Isura's advice to only play 1 or 2 tables. For almost anyone, you're going to make more money in terms of bb/100 or $/hr playing at .5/1, 1/2(6-max), or 2/4. 1/2 is considered a good stop for development because it forces you to learn certain parts of your game. This involves focus and really thinking about reading/classifying your opponents. You simply can't do this while 4-tabling or more.

It's cool if you want to play lots of tables, just put 2 .5/1 tables on autopilot in the background and focus heavily on the 1/2 tables you're playing. But this level is for improving your game, rather than profit imo.

Oh, and time of day makes a MASSIVE difference at this level, I think, hence European players saying it's all but unbeatable and California players saying it's just like .5/1, etc. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
