Default TOW7 needs toilet paper.

Alright i know most of you wipe your ass with 100$ bills, I.E. Irieguy, Skip, Limpin, Dali, Curtains, Voltron ect, But I need to decide if I should play for 10X my normal buy-in.

Why would a tool play in a over his head? I believe this is +EV. I will be playing against guys who dont give a [censored] about pot odds, have no clue how to play fourth and fifth street, and who play tight agressive with big hands but are otherwise weak. Also, playing in this big game will refresh my desire to be a skilled player. This leads to the -EV part of my equation. My biggest flaw is my lack of live table experience. I haven't played a home game for more than five dollars, which leads me to think I'll break under presure and cry to skipperbob. [img]/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img] [censored] it, one can't be a great poker player without balls. Gotta do it!

My objective are,
1. Place ITM.
2. Win uncontested pots as and play looser like I do in UB or FTP.
3. Try not to turn into a statue eveytime I try to steal a pot. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I need some advice on how an internet/party player can adjust his game to a live game? Comment, Flames, and Ideas!

I was thinking about this variable but I don't see how a bunch of poker newbies could have a edge by cheating here. It's not like their the "Matador". [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
