    Default Move Up to 10NL?

    I'm thinking of moving up to 10NL. I've been playing 3 tables at once in 5NL and seem to being doing well. Three tables is just enough to keep me from getting bored and playing with crap. I just completed 40k hands and my BR is at about $220. BR management says 15-30 buyins so I'm fairly close. Usually after about 6k hands I start losing again but it hasn't happened. I was thinking of playing 10NL unless my BR gets to 15 Buyins and then drop back down.

    Comments?

    No luck for you.

    Good Skill sir.

    Congrats.

    nh, looks like your winrate improved dramatically near the end, it's a great feeling right before you move up when you just "get it" and crush your current level.

    I don't understand what you mean.

    I didn't start 3 tabling until 30k hands. That's actually when I really started playing better because I wasn't getting bored and playing crap. Before that I was 1 or 2 tabling (and getting bored).

    We can also move the line of the graph up to $150 now.

    when i started out at a limit, i started with 4 tables, moved to 6, and then kept adding two up to a max of around 10. i can't stand focusing on specific tables at the microstakes because i think we have so much edge that sheer volume will increase our overall winnings

    I'm pretty sure you get better faster when you play less tables
    I had the best winrate at NL25 with 6 tables
