I've been pretty much owning the 50nl game on Party, after 4k hands my ptbb/100 is at 26. I know that I'm on a heater (so nobody needs to remind me), but I do think I could realistically beat the 50nl game on PP for 10-15ptbbs/100 easily. Anyways I'm planning on moving up within a day or two and would like anybody who has made the move to let me know what I should watch out for or any differences between the 50nl/100nl 6 max game on pp. Thanks.

The blinds are a little higher.

Other than that, not much difference really.

Over 100K hands? no. 7-8 is more realistic. Also, if you played 100K more 50NL hands, your win rate would drop to around 10

Renton will become famous soon enough
I don't know about 6 max but there was a very noticeable difference in skill in moving from Party 50nl full ring to 100nl full ring.

The players are better at realizing when to fold/when to call to your bluffs/value bets. They are slightly more aggressive (though still fairly passive). 100 NL 6-max is not much harder than 50 NL 6-max. 200 NL 6-max is WAY harder than 100 NL 6-max though heh
BR now: $106900
Playing now: $10/10/20 - $20/40 NL live, $10/20 NL full ring online, $10/20 NL 6-max online, $20/40 FL 6-max online, $100/200 FL live
Goal: $125000 for $25/50 NL live

no such thing as good players until you get to 1k NL

I'm going for 200NL 6max this week. I've been on B2B for the last two months so I have to play 100NL on Party for a day or two more to get a baseline before switching. Not playing for bonus or r@keback, so I should get an accurate picture. So far, I noticed at 100NL on Party:
1. People will still limp QQ+.
2. People will raise only 1BB.
3. Short stacks will push the flop if they miss, yet value bet when they hit.
4. Once you figure out who will fold and who will call down, it's not hard.
5. People are either overly passive or overly aggressive and exploitable.

If that sounds hard, stay at 50NL.

Sorry, I missed this from a few days ago.

I never experienced NL50 6-max, but I jumped right into NL100 6-max and was an immediate winner. I ran super hot at first and won a ton, but then came crashing back down to reality over a week and a half period and was barely break-even after 3k hands. I analyzed my play, changed some things up, and then the money came right back to me and then some...

I moved up to NL200 and didn't notice much of a difference. There are a few more "floaters" but you really just have to figure out how each person at your table is playing, and then use that against them to get the most value out of your good (and sometimes even not-so-good) hands.

I have recently taken a few stabs at NL400 6-max and honestly haven't found much of a difference there yet. I have a *very* small sample size so who knows what my first 10k hands will be like when I play there.

To be honest, I've always heard that NL600 is where you start to see the men seperate from the boys, and that 1k is really, really tough. But don't take my word for it as I haven't played those stakes yet.
