Default Re: Party 5/10 vs. 10/20: 2K game easier?

does anyone have anything to comment on stars games? i see a lot of the same donks that play 400 NL play 5/10 full-ring, yet i kick their butts repeatedly at 400 NL

wish i had the roll for 5/10 though

ive also been obsing the 10/20 full-ring games on stars, it seems like a lot of the same people with maybe 1-3 fish at each table ... though im sure a lot of those "same people" are losers in the long run

Deleted, posted some hands from you in my DB but someone told me that was in poor taste, so PM me if you want to know what they were(or if you want me to post them and others can chime in as well).

Default Re: This is probably why

For a long time I played 5/10 6 max on Party successfully, I then took a long run of bad beats that nearly killed my bankroll. I have many observations and PT info that says that the 3/6 and 5/10 nl 6 max are easier and looser games than the 2/4 nl on party, which i think consists of primarily nutsetters. If the 10/20 nl on party is weaker than the 5/10 it is for one important reason: Many fish with lots of money want to play the absolute highest stakes possible, that is why this summer the weakest game on the net (with high stakes) was the Party 5/10 nl, which has perhaps migrated to the 10/20 nl, just because the higher the stakes attract the bigger fish, becuase many people are looking for the highest nl games. This is similar to watching the chumps on the high limit games... people with huge bankrolls and money to gamble will play the highest stakes possible. That's my explanation.

For what it is worth, I believe the 5/10 NL full ring on PP is much softer than the 10/20 NL full ring.

It is weird how this works, you would expect them to be similar, but they are not.

Unfortunately there are usually only 1 or 2 games going of 5/10 full ring.

Maybe you are better at full table vs. six max? I don't think there's a big enough difference in competition to make up for a difference in skill in playing full table versus short handed.

The 2K game is much tougher-far fewer fish of the "spew all their chips with nothing" variety and far more players capable of changing gears, calling to steal, 3-barrel bluffing, etc.
