What next after 2p/4p?

edited February 2011 in The Poker Clinic
I,ve played up to 15p/30p levels with mixed results over the last year, but since I started playing cash I have concentrated mainly on 2p/4p and after a steady regular profit for a few months think its time to knock it on the head and concentrate on  a higher level as its getting boring now and i,m certainly not going to improve my game at this level

I,m undedcided whether to  just play 4p/8p with a max buy in  of £8 or go to 5p/10p and just play with £10 as i,ve been doing quite well at this level as well over a cpl of  weeks, but my BR won,t allow me to put £20 down w/o playing with scared money. I also play 2 tables

I,m quite careful about table selection but was wondering what ppl think the main differences are between players at 4p/8p and 5p/10p (the standard of play - if any )

If playing approx 4-5 days for about 4 hours, over what period of time should i consider moving up presuming I can bt these levels on a regular basis?

cheers
Paul

    I think you're taking all of this bankroll management a little seriously. I think most people do. The experts on here will shoot me for this, but so what.

    If you're bored playing at 2p/4p, then move up. Playing at 2/4 you're obviously not doing it for a living, more of a hobby. If you're bored with this hobby, then get a new one (e.g. playing £2 SnGs could be fun). Life really is too short.

    Go nl10, sure ive seen u there anyway, so u must know the level of play. as for buy in for 20, it shouldnt bother u too much, just play your game u have 100 bigs.

    People go on about it like they've never played on a table where a few ppl have doubled up.

    The buy in for NL10 will be changing to 100bb sometime in the next couple of weeks (or so I'm told!).

    IMO, I really don't think there's any real noticable difference between NL8 & NL10 but like pod says, just try one of each & see how you go.

    You probably have seen me there Norbit

    Must have been a good day or table selection as there are some ppl I will step up to play

    As for the buy in its still £20 but hopefully  Bob   is right and it will be changing soon
