Default The hardest level to play in $33s and below on Party?

I think my play at one of the levels is a little rough and am curious to see what other people think.

I voted 50/100, but 25/50 isn't all that far behind.

Preflop: 25/50. Don't know when to push/call/fold yet..
Postflop: 10/15 and 15/30, but maybe because I still suck at NL. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

50/100 is the toughest for me. however, when hoping for a good run of cards, I always want it on 25/50, so that I can build a bit of a stack for the upcoming blind increases.

my vote is 25/50. At this level you likely have the chips to raise 3 or 4xbb. However, if you are called and the flop doesn't hit you or someone comes over the top pre-flop or for whatever reason you need to fold the hand you are in really bad shape. I guess what I am saying is that it becomes easy to get married to a hand or pot at this level and that makes it tough. On the other hand, at the 50/100 the choices are easier (at least when you are short or med. stacked) as you make them all pre-flop: Push or fold!

Just my thoughts,

Ryan

Yes exactly.


Is it ever ok to limp with a small pocket pair in early position with 650 to 700 chips with 25/50 blinds(with 800 chips at the start as 30 dollar SNG on party)? I have usually either folded or raised depending on the number of players left and my position.

Another question:Say you raise from the CO/button and one of the blinds goes all in, how big a pocket pair do you need to call with no special reads on your opponent?
