Anyone ever successfully skipped a limit?

It seems like all you want to hear is that you can skip ahead to 15/30.

So I will tell you. Yes, it's allright. Report back with results later.

As tongni said, learning to play 10-20 6 max is crucial if you'd like to ever play above 30-60. It's probably most players first real introduction to playing against opponents that can occassionally be extremely aggressive and this kind of aggression is usually common at the higher limits.

Do you ask your gf what shirt you should wear, don't be a pansy, make your own decisions.

Actually, a negative answer would be completely reasonable and even expected.

However, I would appreciate a coherent, thought out explanation, like

"I tried something similar and felt I was being outplayed and would not recommend it"

or

"I would not recommend such a move because I think 10-20 6-max is an important limit in learning how to handle unpredictable aggression"

not

"Sample size too small. Report back with a graph after 1.5 million hands."

It almost seems in this forum as the "sample size is too small" argument has become a replacement for actual analytical thought.

Yes, the sample size in my original post (and 99% of all other posts) is too small, and yes we are all aware of that. Now lets move beyond this apparency and try to contribute something useful.

read my post, it contains a valuable life lesson.

Thank you for wasting 15 seconds of my life directing me to that useless post (and the 30 seconds it is taking me to write this reply). Now I have to go do something highly productive to make up for it.

i wouldnt do it. i got in at LEAST 15K hands at each limit.

Sample size too small. Are you sure you're beating 10/20?

i skipped 10/20 cause i started off on a 100BBish downswing and just said the hell with it. worked out well for me but i wouldnt recommend that you do that. your hand sizes mean nothing.
