Stars 25NL easier than Stars 10NL?



Posted Sun Oct 08, 2006 3:30 am GMT by BBQSquirrel
I have been playing mostly NL 10 before I decided to try more NL25 on stars......doubling up, doubling up, 1.5 times and tripling up my last few buyins. I also look at the table data for NL25 and find that the players/flop and relative pot size are quite more favorable than those for their 10NL counterparts (can't find any table with players/flop >40%). In my last 10-15 10NL tables I am only up $2 to $3 on average.

Does anyone here feel the same as I do? I'm not complaining about winning, but I feel much more comfortable with a $10 buyin because of my bankroll.

I have noticed similar results. My win rate at NL 10 was a dismal 5BB/hr, while at NL 25 it is about 12BB/hr. If you have success at NL 25 and you can play without feeling youre playing with 'sacred money', then i say stick with it. If your bankroll starts taking a hit, move back down to a more comfortable buy in.
