Default Folding the $11s and Pushing the $22s

Weird title, I know..

What the biggest difference when making the transition from the $11s on party to the $22s?

Anything else I should know??

Thanks!!

You might find yourself making more money.

There aren't any other tangible differences.

How odd, I'm moving from the 6's to the 11's and you're moving from the 11's to the 22's.

If there is no tangible difference maybe I should skip the 11's and go right to the 215's. [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

Seriously.

What should I expect?
Are there the same amount of suicide players?
Morons? Donks?

Thanks!!

There are fewer suicide players, yes. But everyone's just as bad level 4 and after. You'll still see people limp/call off their 12 BB stack with KQ sooted. You'll still see people limp/fold to a raise with their 4 BB stack.

In essence: they still suck.

But yeah, you'll occasionally be at tables that are 8-9 handed in level 5 or whatever, but you'll still be way better than everyone when the blinds get big.

There are no tangible differences between the 11s and 22s. There are VERY tangible differences between the 22s and 33s and 55s. I can't remember the last time I got a walk in a 33 or 55.

Slighty less morons, more 2+2ers and the play is slightly less awful overall.

Don't worry about 'apapting', just move up and get the much better hourly rate.

11s and 6s are the same...

22s are slightly harder but plenty of donks...if you can beat the 10s you should be fine.

I find sometimes I have a little more fold equity in the 22s than the 11s, but sometimes not.
