Default Re: Question about Moving up--Hypothetical

[ QUOTE ]
Question:
You have a player who almost always plays limit 100% of the time and is a very good $2/$4(8tables)..$3/$6(4tables) player who is an average to solid 5/10 player(1table).

His bankroll has grown to easily be big enough for the 15/30 limit tables(note he only plays Party and skins with PT and PV and rakeback).
He's an average(decent) player at NL50,NL100 but currently too timid for the higher limits-due to lack of exp/knowledge.

Q#1Would you say it is more profitable for him with his bankroll to:
A play $3/$6 and move to 8 tables
B play $5/$10 with up to 4 tables
C jump to $15/$30 and work up to 4 tabling.
D get better at NL play NL200/400/600 on 4 tables.

Q#2 If the player did want to move up..which would be the better option and why?
APlay $15/$30 working up to 4 or 8 tables.
BGet better at NL and play NL200,NL400,or NL600 with 4 to 8 tables.

Note...the player being described is a solid limit player who is just an average NL player more due to lack of play, knowledge, and aggresion then anything else.

This person isn't me..

Was curious about the reponses because I've seen so many discussions about "moving up"..."my 1 year plan" etc in both the NL and Limit forums.

And I've heard a lot of comments from NL players about how nuts the up and down swings can be at $15/$30 limit compared to say 200NL/400NL etc. While I've heard from the $15/$30 limit players how nuts the swings can be at $400,$600,$1000 NL tables are.

Does playing one of the higher limit tables($15/$30etc) hold distinct advantages over playing the higher NL tables($200/$400etc) or vice versa?

Anyways just thought it might be interesting to hear the different opinions on this. Wasn't 100% sure which forum to post in but figured I'de cross post it in High Limit and High NL.

Later,
DEAD

For that particular person, Id suggest to start 2 tabling, then 3 tabling 5/10... and to try 15/30 w/ very very good game selection....

i dont know why he'd want to switch to NL.
