How easy is foxwoods 5/10?

Oh ok, this is more what I thought the situation was, except I thought that the blinds got increased too for the round.

I don't really feel comfortable messing around with a game like that, so I'm going to just play the 4/8 and hopefully kill it for a few hundred.

the structure of the game is great for solid players, especially on kill pots...i dont see a reason why you wouldn't sit based on your actual experience online...the 5/10 game is very easy, but can suck if you're not hitting, but i believe it's very much worth the risk

You said you were doing well playing 2/4 or 3/6 online, I would suggest giving 10/20 a shot. Just play your game and adjust accordingly. It will surely build your confidence. And if it goes sour and you drop $250 - $300 to extreme suckouts, then go to 5/10 or 4/8.

I know where I play, the folks who play 10/20 will play 5/10 regularly as well, and I can destroy them in the 5/10... I don't have near the bankroll to start playing the 10/20, but I hope to within 2 months.

Eh well I went, played 4/8, and lost 10bb an hour for 3 hours before I finally said screw it and left :/

And the downswing continues.

Thanks for the advice guys

I was playing 5/10 at Foxwoods over the X-mas break and i lost $100 so i decided to play in the 1/2 NL game and won like $600. I was going to go back and play 5/10 but i was so deep on the 1/2 $100 restricted buy in game I decided to stay and i won another $300. I have won alot playing in the 5/10 game but if you are at a bad table u can lose alot also.
