Playing different stakes at the same time?

[samircyber9]

I am staked for 02/05. Is it a bad idea to multi table and play say two of 05 and two of 02? Will this hurt my game? The way I see it the players here pretty much play the same.

is not a bad idea, you can play normally. GL.

If you play with regards to blinds, it should be fine?

 

[Tigroslav]

Should be fine just dont think about the value difference and focus on playing your best game.

I do not think, that playing tables with different limits is a problem, so just go ahead.

It will fukk with a weak mind and stress you out if your "Run Good" happens at the lower limits while you "Run Bad" happens at the higher stakes.

Thats completely fine especially on a site like ACR, where you can make all stacks show up in BB rather than $. By doing so there is no risk of getting confused about stack sizes, which is otherwise the main drawback of mixing up limits.

I don't think that it should be a problem. It's actually much easier to handle than to play several Tournaments with different structure at the same time.

Exactly. If a tournament player can handle to be in a 5,5$ turbo, 11$ PKO regular speed, 3,3$ R+A and a satellite at the same time, then it should certainly also be possible for a cash game player to handle being on some 5NL and 10NL tables at the same time.

Do it all the time playing different stakes from freerolls for example as they are pure +EV simultaneously with $100+ buy ins tables as smaller percentage of rake taken by the house over a $100 entry compared to the smaller buy ins.
Compare the different poker sites and buy in levels for rake is a good idea but see no problem in mixing up your levels once your comfortably bank rolled for them in cash games good luck.

The first two limits can be mixed

 

[thesternburglar]

Switch your bankroll to show BB instead of you chip dollar amount. It helps quite a bit to think in those terms.

I don't think it's an absurd difference in the players' level. I'm sure it won't affect your game much. But the recommended thing is to always play the same levels, even to avoid your brain having to adapt to each situation because they are different levels.

 

[Vilgeoforc]

It's not bad to play at adjacent limits. I think it's a must when you're leveling up but aren't quite confident in your game yet.

 

[YuriDitz]

I try to play only one limit at a time because the players are still different. For example on NL2 now there is a total trash and NL 5 is more understandable to me.

 

[Subel007]

Sometimes i play like that and it is not making sense

different rates

I play micro-limits and freerolls because I don't see the point in raising!!
