Default Re: what games do you guys play?

I had built up my PokerStars account from $12 to around $300 playing various games, but the last $100 or so of it was from $.25/$.50 limit holdem. Then, about a week and a half ago I got an email from Party Poker that they had deposited a $75 bonus into my account which had been dormant for about 2 years. I checked the balance and sure enough I had about $85 in there (my forgotten $10 from 2 years ago + their bonus). I've been playing the $0.50/$1 full ring limit holdem games on Party and they have been SWEET. I play much higher stakes live, but I have a policy of never, ever, under any circumstances putting additional external funds into my poker bankrolls, and I am keeping my live & online bankrolls separate. So, I will be posting in the micro limits for the forseeable future.

just cleared a pokerroom bonus at 1/2 5-max on a super big upswing. Also $5 S&G's. I have cashed $1K of my bankroll out for vegas. I am looking at 2/4 & 3/6 live. Should be pretty straightforward.

You might want to check out the Brick & Mortar forum. A while back I posted the question 3/6 online = 3/6 B&M? and the consensus was No, 3/6 online is more like 15/30 B&M if you have the bankroll. I'd be curious as to your experience. I'm planning a trip to Vegas in January.

that is true. I just have minimal experience with live games, and am a big wuss as such. Also a bit crutchy from PT/GT+. Deciding whether to get Caro's book.

I think this is pretty true. When I played 3/6 online I would play 9-18 to 15/30 live.

My first Live game was 4/8 at the commerce.

It didn't compare to ANY limit I've ever played online. I started online at .5/1 and currently play 2/4. When playing live, I found it hard to keep track of the pot, usually I just look at the number next to where it says POT: , but unfortunately live tables don't have that stat.

I didn't matter much though, the pots were so huge I almost always had proper odds. 7 to the flop, wasn't rare, even when it was 3-bet or capped.

I can't wait to go back.

Bonus whoring on as many sites as I have time to clear.

When whoring usually 1/2 6max but I just started taking stabs at 2/4 FR.

Started with +50BB in my first 466 hands too [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
