been pwning the .05/.10 for a month now, and went ahead with some.25/.50 even though I'm not quite properly bankrolled for it. Same basic results.

Notes/Questions:
-Haven't had a losing session in 2 weeks. yeah, this is a bit of streak. Still ... about 700 BB of profit is tough to undo.
-I really want to stay at .25/.50, even though Ii've only got 150BB in stars. Can I? The BR climbs SO MUCH faster at that stake.
-My next investment was going to be TGC, but Fnord keeps saying the .5/$1 game at party is as soft as the .05/.10 at stars. Gosh I'd like to pull 13 BB/hr at .5/$1 hehe...

Throw in rakeback + bonuses and it's not even close in terms of skill vs profit. Once you have a clue how to not suck too badly you should play the Party .5/1 or move to Pacific (and just deal with the shitty software because the 2/4 often plays like the Party .5/1 game) ASAP.

My guess as to difficulty

Clueless:
Nickel games anywhere

Trained monkey:
Party .5/1
Pacific up to 2/4

Rode the short bus ta skool:
Party 2/4
Pacific 3/6 & 5/10

They often try really hard:
Party 3/6 & 5/10

Weak/Tight:
Party 1/2 ???
Stars, UB, Paradice .5/1 - 5/10

TurboAggro:
Party 10/20 and 15/30

LeFou: If you have the BR go to PP .5/1, I played there last night for the first time. They aren't much better than the nickle and dime games. Fnord is completely right, then again, when is he not?

Look, it's not rocket science despite what many on this site turn it out to be. On vcpoker, I play $1-2 up to $3-6 if the game is good, and it is not as difficult as you'd think.

For 2 hours of play at $3-6 I made at least $100+, and only won maybe 3 pots. I camped for AA KK and AK/AQ, and played cheap flops when I could,.... sure its boring but poker isn't about fun its about money

Well since I plan to play for more than 2 hours I'll probably just get the bankroll in place and then I won't have to camp.
