Ok, I started out on UB playing the .1/.25 blind games over the past month and have just moved to Empire for bonus whoring etc. All I have to say is wow. UB games are soooooo much tighter than Empire. At UB it's not uncommon to have about 35% of people seeing the flop, empire it's more like 60%. Anyone else played at UB/Empire notice this too?

I guess this leads me to my next problem. I'm just seeing a lot more suck outs/bad beats now which has me questioning my game after making $40 at the .5/1 game last night to basically losing it all today. I also just moved up to the .5/1 limit too so maybe I just need to get used to it. I like to believe my game is fairly solid so I guess I just gotta keep playing my game.

40BB swings are normal. looser games just means more money and more variance.

I started at UB and found it much tighter than Empire/Party, with way fewer fish.

Hyper is right, .....bigger swings at looser games
Gone golfing ..see ya in the Fall of 2006
PS. What did the snail on the turtle's back say?
