Movin' on up

[JB25163]

Alright, so now that I'm bankrolled for 100NL, its time to move up. Here's my question: How is the play at 100NL compared to 25NL/50NL. I don't remember seeing any differences between 25NL and 50NL. As far as where I play, I was at Party Poker until the ban and I've been at Stars since. Thanks.

Not much diff. Use the same approach and you'll do fine. I find it easier to make money at 100 then at 50 NL.

try not to freak when you lose your first 100BB stack. i got crushed my first time in a $200 pot by getting 1-outtered on the river. just try to think of the money as buyins like always, play the same game that got you there, and you'll do fine.

It is natural that the play gets slightly tighter as you move up levels. Some will say that there are no differences between 50 and 100, but you can quickly look at the avg pot sizes and see that there is a difference (although its not huge). Nonetheless, your old game will probably work just fine.

If my memory serves me correctly, the biggest diff b/w 50 and 100 is that at 50 you get way more limping into pots. Overall though, postflop play and the kind of play that will win you money is still the same.

I have noticed 100NL being somewhat tighter preflop than 50NL. It's not the same as 25NL like a bunch say, but yes, you can still do just fine playing the same game that beats 25NL/50NL.
