    hi guys

    i have been playing cash games for about a year. Working my bankroll up from zilch.

    went through 10/25 fairly easily, got a bit stuck at 25/50 (until i worked out how to play multitabling w ankers waiting for rockets, ).

    i eventually had enough BR for 50/1 but thought there would be some tough opposition,

    how wrong could i be, i can't believe how bad the players are at this level.

    in 2000 hands i have made more at 50/1 than 30,000 at 25/50. (i know 2000 is a small sample).

    WHY OH WHY DIDN'T I DO THIS BEFORE,

    THE MISSUS MIGHT HAVE GOT A XMAS PRESENT!

    at what levels do you have proper play?

    "proper play"

    bit of a lazy statement
    (was rushing to finish post before wife saw me on lap top again!)

    in 50/1 where a guy calls to the river for all his stack with middle pair!
    where a guy calls a pre flop raise (10xbb) with 75 off and calls pot bet on 8JK flop .

    AND THERES MORE

    Would a PFR of 10XBB constitute "proper play"?

    I played .5/1 nl for a while earlier this summer after taking a break from poker for a month - my usual game range b4 this was anything from $1-2 to $5-10nl - I think the single biggest 1 level gap I've seen in online poker is from the .5-1 nl to the $1-$2 game - I couldn't believe how easy it was to beat the .5-1 nl game was, saying that, though the standard rises considerably once u move up from .5/1 you must remember there will always b weak players at every level, some people would just found it 2 boring to play below a certain level even if they can't beat the level they play at - people who just have lots of money, people on a lucky run or just crazy gamblers etc.
