Re: Am I ready for the jump? 35k stat check up.
Wow, thanks for all the comments!
My vpip was higher and I have worked hard to lower it just a point. I need to work on post flop skills and agression. I hope 1/2 or 2/4 will force the issues. One thing that has held me at this limit so long is multitabling to clear bonuses at a level I'm comfortable playing. Time to throw the baby bottle away! I'm going to break out the sippy cup!!!! Thanks again J72

Re: Am I ready for the jump? 35k stat check up.
vpip: Pretty good. Just over optimal IMO. Not too high to be a leak IMO. I think the optimal vpip is probably ~21-22 for .5/1. 24 is not ridiculous.
pfr: Should be higher. I could go for 10-12 range. Not a huge leak, but as you move up yr pfr should approach yr vpip (the gap should lessen). Aggression factor postflop: I think this is where you need to work on yr game. More betting and raising and reraising. Don't go nuts though -- do it selectively. Don't spew. Be smart.

I doubt if a lot of ppl can make more money over the same number of hands playing 1/2 party full ring. [/ QUOTE ] There are plenty of people with at least 2BB/100 in 1/2 full ring over this many hands.

[ QUOTE ] You're a tad loose-passive. [/ QUOTE ] Would it really be more optimal to have a very high AF and a low VPIP in loose-passive 0.5/1 games? When you have the odds to limp with a less premium hand PF combined with the fact that your opponents play very bad post flop. When you have the odds to call more post-flop. When raising to protect your hand is ineffective. (It does work better on the turn though) When you have no idea if you are beaten on the river with your TPTK by the calling station with pairs of 7 and 3. [/ QUOTE ] Your statement doesn't make a ton of sense to me.

for those who say he's too loose prelfop, it wouldn't surprise me at all if 23 is close to ideal (i don't have a significant sample size at .50/1.00) and it wouldn't suprise me if he could get away with EVEN more than 23. my main gripe is for such a high vpip, your pfr looks low and your aggression is low too. but clearly you can move up and readjust your game there. the problem with playing at one level too long (and crushing it) is that you can get lulled into a sense of compatency and have bad habits stick with you for too long simply because "it worked" at the level you've played at for so long. [/ QUOTE ] In theory, I agree. But in practice a very good postflop game is needed in order to play so many hands up front. The OP's PF and postflop aggression factors indicate to me that thier postflop game probably still needs work. In this case, I'd still recommend tightening up a good bit while studying postflop play. Sorry, but that's my opinion.

But I found the games extremely tight and thus it would be hard for most of the ppl to sustain a >2 BB/100 win rate.

[ QUOTE ] I have about 180k hands of .5/1! [/ QUOTE ] Seriously? [/ QUOTE ] They go fast if you play enough tables, 700hands/hr gets you to 180k pretty fast. 12-tabling .5/1 makes me $28/hr, and if I'm clearing bonuses, that can be $80-$100/hr easy. I can't achieve that at any other limit, so that's where I play mostly.
