Default Re: Are the $33s getting tougher?

Is the consensus here that the $30s should be avoided? Anyone disagree with this?

Me too. Beat the $33s then worry about the $55s.

33's are a cake walk. I wish i knew how to code cuz i could write a bot to beat them.

Play tight early. Go crazy on the blinds at lvl 5. Push every hand HU.

Follow that and you're ROI will be at least 10. Read shadow's list and you'll hit 15+.

I agree generally about the 33s. This advice is missing something though. You have to get to level 5 with enough chips to go crazy. You have to accumulate some chips in levels 1-4 or your FE will be gone by the time level 5 rolls around. You don't need a ton, but you have to pick up a few blinds or small pots here and there or else you are just going to have to get lucky and double up later.

Any strategy guide that fits in one line is obviously over-simplistic, but the point was that they are still plenty easy to beat.

My newest tricks picking up pots early are 'The PVS' and 'The Gamboholic' (pushing LVL 1 or 2 when too many ppl limped).
