Show me the money!!!
 
Where are you profitable guys making the most of your profit at?
Multi table games, SNG, limit cash games, NL cash games?

I make most of my money at NL cash games. I play 2 tables at once, try to see flops for cheap and play the hell out of made hands. Its amazing to see some of the calls that are made.

limit cash games, probably just because this is what i play the most.

when i can play nl, i like to, but i cant play it too much. i just dont have the stomach for the swings. i find that i can generally win big in those games, but the converse is also true.

6 of one, half dozen of the other
 
My 2/4 game at Party is very reliable. If I sit and play smart at the end of the night I should be up 1 - 2 BB an hour. I rarely lose more than 25% of my buy-in, especially if I'm willing to extend the session long enough for things to turn back around if I go down early.

The $25 NL games can be much more profitable. There have been nights when I tripled up in one hand. But losing most if not all of my buy-in happens more often than it should.

The $10 SNGs are fun, but not as profitable as the ring games for me.

Most Profitable a tie between the NL cash games and
the limit $4/8 on UB (the annie duke table with the cheap blinds).

Lately I have lowered myself down to the $.10/.25 NL on Stars, or the
$.25/.50 NL on Party.... Less stress, less thinking.... Wait for Nuts, push all-in collect..... wait for nuts, push all-in, collect.... boring as hell, but it pays off.

Somebody already mentioned it, but geeze I can't believe some of the crap people will call you down with. I hold Ah-Xh Flop Kh-Jh-4h Turn 2h I push all-in after he decides to raise quite a bit and he calls. River 8c
He flips up Jc-3s or some crap like that..... What the hell are they thinking????
I must be a charity case or something, they just give me money.

I make most of my profit in home games and then lose it all online

To be honest, I play at UB, I always make sure I got plenty of Bonus $s, and I'll simply join a table first or second. Those ultimate points add up quickly, especially with a loose table, so even when I fold (the points give me extra incentive to play tight), I still earn points to convert my bonus $s. Very often, I'll fold an entire orbit and earn more in bonus $s than my antes were.

Limit Cash. That's where I play most of the time. On the positive side there. Losing money in NL cash games and a few sngs (I rope them together in my records). Making enough in limit to overcome that. Trying to improve.

Short handed (6 or less) no limit or limit play. Period. The key being short handed.
