Default It\'s Official... $20 to anyone if I fail....

As of today I am no longer playing another hand of 2-4 or 3-6 again. I have been 8 and 12 tabling these limits on autopilot for to long and I do not want to stunt my growth. I am now going to make my way to the 15-30 and higher games. Last week I hit my 800,000 hand of 2-4 and I have decided enough is enough.

I have been in my comfort zone for to long and it is time to move on. The reason I have stayed at these limits for so long is because the competition is so soft and I have not needed to really work on my game to have a good winrate.
Very rarely am I ever put in a tough spot and it is time to say goodbye to ABC poker. For some reason I have no problem hopping into a game of 15-30 at a live casino but online all I ever want to do is 2-4 and 3-6.


I am going to start at the 5-10 4 tabling and move up to the next limit after I have hit 100K hands at that limit and have a winrate I am happy with.

I will not stop playing the 5-10 until I have hit 100K hands, it doesn't matter if I am winning at 2BB/100 or losing at -2bb/100 Once I have hit the 100K mark I will re-evaluate at that point. I figure this should take me 2 1/2 months to accomplish playing 4 tables.

Good luck man. I won't catch you on a 2/4 but moving up is a good thing.

Go get em.

Good luck, I'm a cheap bastard so I'll take 30 seconds when there is a potential $20 in it for me. This is Party I'm assuming?

mind sharing your bb/100 over those 800k hands?
id say that is a sufficient sample size.

You've done 800k so far, why not make it a round million?

I'm in.

dude...800K hands...

That's so much!!!

I mean, I'm not saying you're a nit, or anything,

but





800K!!!!! Playing 50K hands a month, which is probably the most I can see anyone playing, means you've been playing for 16 months...




That's 5 times as long as my poker career.



On another note, your bankroll is big enough for 15/30 now, so if you think you can handle it,


and I think you can,



You should take a shot.


Be warned though, that I took a shot with 10K, and lost 1.2K after a few thousand hands and quit.


Good luck to you.
