Re: 100 NL 6max vs. 50 NL 6max
It has been my experience that 50NL is a tougher game than 100NL. Take that for what it's worth, as it is based on feel and observation. I don't have enough hands at 50NL to make it statistically valid.

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] but basically zero full time pros who arent students. [/ QUOTE ] this is wrong [/ QUOTE ] and they havent moved up because...? [/ QUOTE ] to me, moving up when poker is your sole source of income seems like the scariest thing imaginable. Especially if you went pro at the low end of the spectrum (100NL) and you need every penny to pay the bills. Maybe not the smartest long term decision, but professional poker probably isn't either. Just playing devil's advocate here... I haven't seen anyone at 100NL that i could point at and say "that guy is definately doing this to pay the rent". But i HAVE seen a couple guys that could, and for all i know might be doing just that. [/ QUOTE ] if they need every penny to pay the rent, they need to play more hands/week, period. then when they move up they can play less hands and make more money. anyone smart enough to make a living is going to be smart enough to build a bankroll when moving up even one level (from 100 to 200) can drastically improve their $/hr.

Re: 100 NL 6max vs. 50 NL 6max
In terms of making the most money per week I find that NL 50 is far easier than NL25 and NL200 is far easier than NL100. Aside from obvious reasoning, this is because people are looser at NL200 and NL50. NL 50 is comparable to NL100 IMO just with bigger stacks.

[/ QUOTE ] this is pretty much true. putting money in your bankroll if youre a winning player is one of the best investments you can possibly make.

So you are actually saying that you think $200NL is easier than $50NL?

[/ QUOTE ] That's quite interesting observation although pretty bold. What's your sample size? I do think 100s is a lot tighter these days for my taste.

[ QUOTE ] and they havent moved up because...? [/ QUOTE ] bankroll requirements? [/ QUOTE ] ok well like i said if theyve been there longer than a couple weeks they need to either find a way spend less or play more, because the opportunity cost of staying at nl100 vs moving up is huge. i expect a pro to know this, which is why i expect very few pros at nl100, and virtually zero who are there long-term.
