JudasHero asked: 1. When you start playing at a table online or at a casino, you’re in the red. After all, you have to pay the blinds. So how long does it usually take you to get in the black (have more money than you started with)? How long does it take you to double your money? The speed of online rooms and casinos is different, so let me know which one you’re talking about.
2. I just started poker about a month ago, so I’ve been playing very low limit or even micro limit tables. However, sometimes I look at my profits and think “Damn, if I had been playing at a higher stakes table I’d have 10x more money right now.” But I’m wary of doing that because I assume that the higher the stakes, the higher the level. How much different is there between the different stakes tables? If I were to go from, say, a $1/$2 table to a $2/$4 table, would it change much? How about from a micro limit to a low limit, or a low limit table to a middle limit table?
3. When you play, what’s your main objective: to play well, or to make money? I mean, would you prefer to play well but only make a 50% profit due to some bad beats, or would you prefer to play marginally well, get lucky a few times and make a 200% profit?
Yup, talking about hold em! But I also enjoy 7 card stud and 5 card draw, so any advice in regards to those games I’d appreciate!
