I was scanning through an old thread I started way back last Oct over on neverbeg, where I took 300 and decided to have a go at 5/10. I was playing like a manic but it seem to work.
http://forum.neverbeg.com/showthread...i+nl+adventure
Check out some of those hands I posted, and tell me if it's really like this at 5/10 or did I just find good tables with good fish? Or did I just run goot?

Part of me wonders if your question is sincere, or if you just want us to shower you with praise like your friends at the other forum did.
That is, everyone except this guy:

Taken from urbandictionary.com, written by Sklansky himself
4. level
Verb or noun. A joke or comment not meant to be taken seriously, but presented in a serious manner.
Thought of as a "cool" thing to do on various websites; the level also functions as a get out of jail free card when your comment is decisively shown to be silly or misinformed because you can claim you were "just levelling".
The term originates from the question of whether you take the comment seriously depending on the "level" you are thinking. In a game of poker, the levels of thinking are:
level 0 = thinking about the cards you're holding
level 1 = thinking about the cards your opponent is holding
level 2 = thinking about what your opponent thinks you are holding
level 3 = thinking about what your opponent thinks you think he his holding
etc
Person 1 - Generic ridiculous stupid comment.
Person 2 - I really hope you are levelling here.
Person 1 - No I'm serious.
Person 3 - Haha you're stupid, you should have left it as a level.

Yes 5/10 is this easy and no different from 1/2 or even .05/.10. Meaning stop now because you are getting incredibly lucky and should save what you made and play .25/.50.

That was almost a year ago, and he's back to a $500 bankroll.
