Default 5-10 NL in AC whats the game look like.

Heres the deal. I am very succesful at the 1-2 NL game down in AC. Which really says absolutly nothing as the games at that level are absolutly terrible. If you read on book and stick to it you shouild be consistently crushing the games. My bankroll is starting to get to the level where i could play the 5-10. Just curious to those who play it how if plays? I heard from mnay its the same fish with more money? Just cuirous how much harder this games play. I need to move up soon because i want to improve. Its just hard to leave the 1-2 game since it is the closest you get to free money in this world. Its almost 0 risk.

Why are you skipping the 2/5 NL game?

I played the 2-5 in new york and crushed it too. Also the 2-5 in AC barly exists there are more 5-10 games going thats why i plan on skipping. Evrey time i sign up for the 2-5 game the waits are unbearable which leads me to play table games which is the biggest leak in my game. But thats another story.

Your first sentence and your second sentence dont go together. How can the wait times be unbearable for a game that barely exists?

There are plenty of 2-5NL games for you to play in AC.

I was going to say, my sample size may be small, but when I've been to AC I've only played 2/5 NL. Granted I've only played at the The Borgata and the Taj. However from now on unless I play in a tournament I will be only playing at The Borgata which always has a 2/5 game going.

ya the 2-5 NL game is clearly the next step for you. And from what i've noticed the wait on a 2/5 table is typically shorter than that of the 1/2 game. I think you are leaping to the wrong level if you play 5/10 NL from 1/2 NL.

Here's an idea...Put ur name on the 2/5 list, play at 1/2 and build a stack there...Get called to 2/5 take your stack there and see what you can do...Jumping that much is idiotic and your variance will go through the roof

The 5/10 at the borg sucks, the 2/5 though is incredible. Play that.

Please discuss why you say this? Why does the 5-10 suck?

Also like i said i play 2-5 in NYC quite a lot so it wouldnt be a huge jump . And i wont like i prob will play the 2 5 a few times in AC before moving up but what does the 5-10 play like? Please discuss thanks.

cut out table games unless we've got dragons at the table worth playing with.

if you want to play nl 5/10 play it online first. its clearly tricker online so that would be a good place to start and the casino would be a great place to clean house
