Advice for move from Paradise .10/.20 to .25/.50

jubeirm · #1 05-05-2005, 06:48 PM

I've been playing .10/.20 for a while now and have been consitantly winning. I'm contemplating the move up to .25/.50 and am wondering what advice people would have to offer. I've watched these tables for two weeks now a couple nights a week for 15-30 minutes. My impression is that the .25/.50 is a bit tighter and way more passive. I have seen very little pfr'ing and people fold quickly on later streets to any aggression.

For those who have made the move what has been your experience and what advice to do you have? Thanks.

For those who are tempted to side track this post [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]: I'm working off my bonus and have every intention of going fishing over at the party pond as soon as possible.

Just do it! I have made a ton at paradise .25/.50. I didn't see any difference between that one dimes.(except the pots are bigger [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]) Sometimes it seems like that is the only game I can beat consistently. You will be pleasantly suprized how nice those games are. Enjoy the table coaches too. They seem to be on every table.

Good luck,
Ben

Both Nike and Reebok offer good advice. Just do it! Life is short, play hard.

About moving to Party: I would stay at Paradise until you have $500. This is the magic number for bonus whoring. The .5/1 game at Paradise is almost as soft as the .5/1 game at Party.

k, whew. My screen name at paradise has a shoe manufacturer part to it. For the golf, not the shoes. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Go for it - .25/.5 Paradise players are bad, as are .5/1

on a semi-related note, a couple times when I've been playing 1/2 6max I've seen usernames that look very similar to people that post here, but the player is a super-donk and terrible .. it makes me wonder sometimes

I never played .1/.2 at Paradise, only on Pacific and Prima, but in my experience, .25/.50 was a slightly tougher game. Basically, position is a little more important and players won't always call down every pot. Just make sure you have a large enough bankroll for it, and you should be able to beat it though.
