Let's do it again

6. Table Selection. How could I forget this one? I think this goes hand-in-hand with playing fewer tables. If you're only playing one or two tables you can take the time to pick the best. And if a table seems to be drying up, make the effort to find a better one.

At times I find myself saying "I have to figure out how to beat the regs if I want to move up." But do I?
Is it ok to rely on bum hunting? I don't know, I guess it depends on your goal. My goal is to move up to the next level, and the next. If bum-hunting gets the job done then why not.

Do it. And if you can find fish reliably, spend more time table selecting (and even seat selecting) and less time multi-bot-tabling. A great way to make money at poker is to play tons of hands with players worse than your current skill level. I think the next couple of levels will have enough fish: you can target them and dodge anyone with half a clue. By the time you get to 25nl or 50nl, you'll have to deal with the regs (or some of them), but you'll have the game for it, too.
