What's your 5/10 winrate?

Through 12K hands I am at 1.2 BB/100, which is a considerable amount less than my 3/6 number. I know it is a small sample size but I still feel that the 5/10 game is much harder than 3/6. I was just wondering for comparision sake what everyone's numbers are.

i can't help you since i don't play 5/10 yet. but i wonder what your 3/6 winrate was and over how many hands.

My last 10K hands I had a WR of 4.29 BB/100 which is obviously very high. But before that I had another 20K between 2.5 and 3 BB/100, which also was probably alittle on the high side. I think that 2.5 is very sustainable for a solid but not spectacular player. All this was also multitabling between 4 and 8 tables.

Are you playing full or 6 max? If your playing 6 max you might want to check out the HUSH forums as thats where most the 5/10 6 max players are.

full I just can't adjust to 6-max, even though I really should learn.

i hope it was just bad luck, especially because i am going to play 5/10 myself as soon as my bankroll allows it. hopefully some more experienced player have anything to say in this matter.

I have now done two stints at 5/10 and have had trouble. I am now through with 5/10 and am going to move on to 15/30 where I have had alot of sucsess through my first 5K hands. I found the 5/10 game to be very dificult. The players are very tight and aggressive. Be prepared to lose $1000 in a sitting, the swings are large.

I somehow doubt that 15/30 is going to be any better especially in the swings area.

I know it sounds crazy but I am playing in two 15/30 games that have V$PIP of 35 and 38%. These two games are as soft as they come. I don't know if this is common or not but these games are great.

I haven't played 15/30 before, but from what I've read, the big difference is that many of the "bad" players are actually much better postflop than the bad players at 5/10. Table VP$IP shouldn't be the only factor in judging how good a table is.
