Actually, i don't think 200nl is any harder than 100nl, at least for Full Tilt. It might be for PS as regs who chase SNE tend to play 200nl.

I remember a post from you a few months back where you said you ran much better on Stars than in FT, I guess that's changed?

At stars, I'd say the skill level doesnt increase greatly at 200NL, theres just a TON more regs and less fish. At FT it seems theres still a good amount of fish at 200NL.

So is the best way in your opinions at 200NL to play across sites and table select to take advantage of the fish that are around.

Like Zach is doing?

I do run a little better at PS than FTP at 100nl. 6 or 7BB/100 at PS instead of a little less than 4 at FTP, iirc. But i only have something like 10k hands at that level at PS, so it's not really relevant, could just be i run hot there.

95% of my 200nl I have played at FTP. Not entirely confortable moving up to 200nl at PS, mostly because not having any hands on the regs sucks. But the tables do look a lot less appealing there from their general stats. Also, I love the deep tables at FTP.

I never have any trouble finding 8 juicy 200nl tables at FTP, tbh. I think table selecting between sites becomes more relevant at 400nl+.

 

[icemonkey9]

The general consensus having asked a few regs between the sites is that the 100nl+ tables are juicer because there's no SNE grinders bogging down the tables at Full Tilt. Interesting to think about.

And I want my money back for pokerazor lol (It's free) ... I plugged in my tragic last hand from last night and it said at the turn (when I stacked) that "My hand is best 100% of the time" with top set on a 4-7-J-8 board (I had JJ). Villain showed 56o. lol, so yeah that's poker ...

Anyways ... the Full Tilt vs Pokerstars debate is kind of interesting. I mean late at night when I play (say midnight PST) the table VPIPs are *lucky* to be over 17 at full ring. Which to me is super nitty. Not sure what FTP tables run at.

I posted this earlier, but basically, if you compare the top winners for 100nl and 200nl

http://www.pokertableratings.com/topwinners.php?site=&structure=1&stakes=2&timeframe=year

you get mostly PS players for 100nl and FTP players for 200nl in the top positions. I do believe it means 100nl is softer at PS and 200nl softer at FTP.

u guys are neglecting the fact that 1/2 is rigged, whereas the other limits are not

Normally I'd have a nice comeback to Vanquish in these spots, but this time he's right so there's nothing I can do but agree.

not a problem when they rig it so that i win, imo.

Grind till you're rolled for 400nl BW

lol that's actually not a half bad idea Enty, I think BW should look into that.

BTW that EV graph is full of crap. Don't even look into it, it's hardly a meter for how bad/good you're running.

lol you just figured this out ?

 

[kleitches]

FFS can you guys update your goddamn blogs? What's the point of having one if you update it once every six years. I want to read about people's poker progress when I'm on the shitter and the last update I see is from June 17, 1974. I'm talking to you Zach, Jagsti, Vanq, and others you know who you are.

YSY he moved to a deep table, bought in for 200bbs and I was already on the list of that table so now I'm in #1

Thought it was Kayne West who liked fishsticks and R. Kelly who loved 15 year-old girls (and golden showers).
