Stats: $1/2 (1/13/2007)

Less than a month has passed and I've already cleared the second stage of the challenge. It took only about 40% as many sessions to make it as it did the first stage, which I attribute to good and bad variance. Anyway, I'll go through a quick analysis of my stats for this stage.

Even though I've only had about 2000 hands at this level, that's enough to indicate a couple trends. First of all, I'm playing tighter than I did at $.50/1. I don't believe that this is only variance, as I'm quite sure that the preflop raising at $1/2 is more frequent than at $.50/1, which means I get to limp in less with 4-5 handed pots and I don't get to steal quite as often (since someone is beating me to it). However, 22/15 stats are still pretty solid, even if not as loose as they could be. If I played better, I could probably get away with a few more 3-bets preflop, which would bump me up to something like 25/20, but I'm content with things as they are now.

I'm curious to see how the $2/4 game will be different. Although I have no direct knowledge to back this up, I've always been under the impression that the $2/4 and $3/6 games are basically the same as $1/2, and perhaps even softer. I don't know why this is, but I'm pretty sure that when I was playing $2/4 full ring, that game was fairly tough compared to things I heard about at $3/6 and even $5/10. So perhaps there's just a little anomaly there.

I also want to point out that to get to $3/6, I only need to have a $600 bankroll, which is only a $200 jump from what I have at $2/4. So it might go by fast.
