Why am I struggling at 2nl but not so much at 5nl?

Yea well I'll correct it and say, if you are rolled for 20 buyins at 5nl you are rolled for 20 buyins at 10nl. If you play the 50-100 bb tables.

This makes no sense. 100bb at 5nl = $5. 100bb at 10nl = $10. $5 != $10.

in fact, $5 < $10

On pokerstars at 5nl tables you can buy in for up to $12.50, but at the 10nl tables you can buyin for up to $10. So I just figured that because the buyins work out about the same price, you have the same number of buyins for both stakes. So a $200 bankroll would get you 20 buyins at either of these 5nl or 10nl tables.

Does that make sense lol?

oh i get where you're messing up. When people say buy in they're referring to a 100bb BI, not a maximum by in. So if you have 20BIs for 5nl then you only have $100. Whereas when you have 20BIs for 10nl you have $200.

i'm glad we sorted that out!

ah I see, that makes more sense lol.

thanks!

Couldn't you just filter your sessions by time, sort hands by amt won smallest to largest, click on the those hands and copy & paste those HH's into a word document?

fwiw this might be easier
