Default 2 1/2 Days

So..I took a shot at the 15/30 full game.

It lasted 2 1/2 days. It's over now.

The first day I went on a 6bb/100 rush. The second day and this morning, I lost that, then lost that again, and was working on losing it again.

Horrible streak.

Among my biggest losers were:

AQs
AA
QJs
KQs
AQo
JJ
AJs
AJo

What makes this so frustrating is that the games are wonderful, better than most games at 2/4. Plenty of fish. If I couldn't beat that game for over 1.5/100, I have no business playing cards. But....my roll will not substantiate going any further. Hope I'm back there someday.

Blah.

Are you serious? Just looking at most of the sites %'s it looks like the games get tighter the higher you go.

Don't sweat it. The games will still be there when you get back. Maybe. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I'm dead serious.

It's a different breed of fish, but there are more in every game.

This is a very common game. I have found games like this at any time of the day.

Tip

Why the jump from 2/4 to 15/30, instead of something intermediate?

From another thread...

Wow, did you move up through limits one by one or just right up to mid'ish limits? Seems so unorthodox

I have played quite a bit of 3/6 and a fair amount of 5/10. I'm looking to stay at Party at the time though, and I play during the day. I love full ring. So...full ring games at 3/6, 5/10 and 10/20 are sparse during the day.

I have been sweating QTip for much of this trial and I can attest that I have not seen this many tables this good at 2/4-5/10 during the day at any site I frequent. They are a very aggressive breed of bad player, but they are just horrible never-the-less.

I feel for QTip and wish him well and speedy recovery.

I don't know what QTip is talking about. The games suck you should be playing 10/20 or 20/40 and also I think he photoshopped that table image.
