About 7-8 months ago I moved from the 1/2 NL Tables to the 2/4 tables... and something VERY strange began happening. I was CRUSHING the tables...I dabbed into some 3/6 as well with similiar results. I was pulling 300-900 a night 3 nights and having 1 losing session on the fourth night 500-600 or so. I was on fire for 6-8 weeks or so, probably made close to 10k. I cooled off and took a terrible run (and when playing NL you'll have these swings). I backed down to the 1/2 Tables and began playing more tournaments... which is now where I am usually at (simply because my live game has increased and a lot of my "roll" isn't online anymore) The players at 2/4 and up are much better than 1/2 and down... but that in turn cuts down on the beats, and allows you to play more aggressively and make more moves, as players show more respect on these tables (which I think was the reason for my huge rush)

In my live game I play mostly 1/2 NL but it plays like a much higher blind structure. The average pre flop raise is 12-20, the max buy in 300.

I also occassionally play in 2/5 and 5/5 games.
