As you could read in my previus post I made my 30BI to play NL5 (I am going to buy-in for 100bb).
I plan to start 8-12 table today and tomorrow to get used to the weird bet sizes (2c SB FREEEAAAKKY) and to see how many regs there are and to get some starting stats on them.
But then I will start 4 tabling as usual and open my range to about 16/13 (I plan to play wayy more hands from LP now) so my questions to all you grinders who started from the bottom on Stars:
How much is NL5 different from NL2?
What is the difference between playing 100bb deep and 250bb, I kinda got used to the higher number.
Are there enough not too nitty regs which would justify close following and extensive attempts at reads of all my tables?
(So far I focused only on my game and correct play of hands, and just was paying close attention to PF and C/bet behavior)
How 'Logical' the limit is compared to retarded NL2, do people play more rationally?

Oh And Also Should I lower my PF bet sizing to 3BB+XBB, or just leave it the same. How does it change from how deep I am and how loose I play? |

Dude, just play poker there
srsly, nl5 and even nl10 is piece of cake if you actually know anything about the game.
dont think too much about stats etc, you will develop your playstyle anyway...
learn from mistakes, analyze pots that were important, post hands, you will improve and move
I actually admire you because im too bored and im looking for stake to get started coz i had to cashout my roll to cover my car crash repairs.. |

NL5 is 200bb deep on stars, not 100bb. So it actually isnt muuuuuuch different to NL2, where its 250bb.
I advise you to play same style that worked for you on NL2, you will make good profit there, game is a piece of cake, veryyyyy easy to beat. |

Yeah you guys are right it seems. Tables are much more nitty but There are still complete retards all over the place and I have just run to 2 Multitablers so far (There is around 10-15 regs on NL2).
Blind steals and C/bets are deadly succesfull so far, people are bunch of pussies and I saw 5 villains betting 1/3rd of the pot with KK lolz
but anyway Which limit starts to be worthy of trying to start playing advanced read based Poker? NL25 NL50 ? More? |

i played nl2 and 5 on stars and they play very very similarly. nl5 is great bcuz the ppl are just as bad as at nl2 but you make more money from them. |

you should play 200bb deep, if you aren't already planning to
overbet your big hands
don't stack off with draws /marginal hands for 200bb. but you will find most of them buy in for <$5 |
