Re: Thinking of moving to PartyPoker 1/2
[ QUOTE ]
(I'm at $475 and change between both sites.) ... (I've only played about 8k hands online up to this point) ... 1. I can afford to blow this entire bankroll if that's the way it plays out. [/ QUOTE ] I am making this move myself now. I have a bigger BR, and 20K hands behind me. I took a beating in my first 5000 hands, but things are looking better now. There is no doubt your poker game will improve as a result of this move. So you have to figure out what your goal really is. 1. Improve you poker skills as rapidly as possible, regardless of losses. 2. Maximize your earn from online poker. 3. Have fun, improve your game, but keep playing with other peoples money. Number 1? No brainer go dump 150-200 BB at 1/2 and see if you can crack it. Number 2 or 3? Get 50K more hands at .5/1 and play a few 1/2 tables to get a feel for it and keep you focused on improving. Some tips for 1/2: When defending blinds, most people are not stealing at 1/2. They have a 10% or better PF hand when they raise. Domination is not fun. K6o is worse defense hand than 98s. There are more decent players here, but plenty of bad ones. Worry less about table VP$IP than getting position on the bad players and not playing out of position to a TAG. The bets are doubled, so one bad night could easily take out 1/4-1/2 of your online cash. You might be able to afford a $100 reload every 2 week, but do you really want to? Variance will make you her bitch whenever she wants. And with as few hands as you have, I would say you aren't prepared to for what it's like. I sure wasn't. GL -D P.S. Please don't pwn me too much when you see me at 1/2. |
