You choose:

1 - table the $5 in rake for every 30 minute session in the game 10$-20$ limit hold'em with a Pro
2 - table of 10$ rake per hand against weak opponents

Be honest with your answers.

I choose 2 - for this table the chances of me much more to win.
I pay more rake, but lose in the end less.

Well I don't play limit holdem so I would choose table 2. But if I were a winning player at $10-$20 limit holdem than table 1 is the better table. The majority of the players playing at table 2 would be losing players so this would give me the best chance at beating the game. So many nl holdem players underestimate the differences between nl and limit, and overestimate their ability in the limit game.

I don't want to spoil, so I'll wrap it up...

I don't know who is the best player of all times, probably Bobby Baldwin. He'd lose fast and easily on table 2. I don't want to imagine my loses, since I'm way weaker than Bobby. Since the difference between you and me is probably much bigger than between me and Bobby, I don't want even to think about your loses...
