When does it become poker?

[Jimmy P]

when does it become poker and not no fold em hold em? 2-4? 3-6? 5-10? 10-20? how high? just wondering.

It's always poker. This kind of question pops up quite often on 2+2.

I'll summarize most of the responses you are going to receive:

If you can't beat small-stakes "no fold'em hold'em", you're not going to be able to beat the larger games.

Welcome to the forums.

you forgot to add "most people who say this are losers at lower limits and think that the upper limits actually get easier"

It's only poker if the balls touch.

You've got a LOT to learn. Get "small stakes hold em" and "Theory of Poker".

Your question needs translating. What you're really asking is "At what level do people start playing the way I think they should instead of the way they think they should?"

If you can't adjust to different styles of play, stick to TTH and save yourself some money.

I play and played alot of poker every day 7 days a week.now mabe iam use to the 10-20 table and the way that flows but, when iam waiting for a table and play 2-4 I suck!!! now you cant say, if you cant beat low limit you wont beat high limit thats just bull@#%$. I do very well at upper limit games and horrible at lower limit games. mabe its me.but i will stick to my higher limit games.
