Moving from $1/2 to $2/4
Although you have the Bankroll you may not decide to move up just quite yet, which is more than understandable. However,
there are two reasons in doing so:
First: The players play just as bad at $2/4 as they do in $1/2. In essence, the same quality play will net you twice as much money.
Second: The number of raked hands drops by nearly 14%. You get more of your own money that you make, and not the Poker Site Itself.
It is time to say farewell to PokerRoom, although the $1/2 games were easy to beat, they have very limited $2/4 table selection.
It is now time to make your first appearance at
('s are still profitable, just not as much as
's Tables).
Party Poker actually has 6 different poker sites that are affiliated with it. This means you can actually have 6
different accounts at the same time. There are two options to follow:
1. You can deposit money into all of them at different times and pick up their $100 deposit bonuses,
giving you a free $600 when everything is all said and done. Or,
2. You can find a rakeback program through an FTR (you must contact an Admin), this is especially important as you increase in limits.
The amount of rake that you generate as you go higher in limits far exceeds that of a deposit bonus so getting a percentage of
that back is far more important than not doing so. Plus, you can still get a rakeback program AND get the deposit bonus at the
same. Thus, there is no reason for you to not get a rakeback program.
The $2/4 tables at Party are very easy to beat, just as easy as the $1/2 tables at PokerRoom. Again, if you feel uncomfortable,
play a couple sessions of $2/4 at
to get used to the betting.
You don't have to deposit your entire $1200+ into the Party Poker account, in fact I recommend you don't.
Perhaps just deposit $600 at once in each site and continue to play $1/2 while you bonus whore. There is NOTHING wrong
with playing at lower limits while you try to increase your bankroll. There are literally dozens upon dozens of Poker Sites
out there giving away free money for you to play on. Examples include the 100% monthly
bonus and
's 35% bonus package.
And, as the time passes
offers occasional reload bonuses as does PokerRoom. It is always nice to have money aside for those as well.
By the time you are ready to move up from $2/4, you will have at least $3000 for your bankroll,
and you've probably been playing for less than 6 months.
