what limit do ring games get hard?

General question for the vets out there =)

If you've followed my posts I've moved from $10 NL to $25 NL and just recently to $50 NL


I don't have enough $50 hands under my belt to make much of an analysis but my first impressions are that people in general are more aggressive and bluff more. Still plenty of idiots running around though.

So the thing thus far that sticks out to me the most is as I've progressed up I seem to be seeing less calling station type players.


So what do those of you think who have spent alot of time playing rings and especially if you have progressed through lower limits up through $50 or $100 or higher. All thoughts welcome though.

NL 200 to NL 600 yes there lot more smart people in higher stakes. micro and low cash games donks there
high stakes NL 200 up to NL 600 no donking there read poker math book like the one bill chen reads. it hard you
you get the hang of it takes practice.keep on building

That made my head hurt.... but good advice

It changes from site to site. I have played on Stars at 25nl, 50nl and 100nl. The standard at Stars is quite high imo, even at these stakes. Yes there are still fish around, but there are a lot of multi tabling regs even at 50nl. I have played at 100nl but not enough to make a valid comment on.

Now at Party, well the standard of play really doesn't vary that much from 25nl upto 100nl, it really is donk citaaaaaay. I have only played a couple of thousand hands at 100nl but at every table I open up there at least 3 players there with stats at 40/10 or worse and that at 6max. So definately a big difference across sites.
