Message: [QUOTE="tenbob, post: 354274, member: 3651"] Ok this weekend was my first foray into $1-$2 and a little €2-€4 at pokerstars. I was initally very nervous about the whole thing and was wondering about the quality of play that i would be facing. I deposied €100 at stars just for this to see how i would get on. Sat at a 6 player table initially €1-€2 with 80bucks, played very tight for the first few orbits and literally was astounded by the quality of play. There was 4 players to every flop raised or not. So i decided to wait for premium hands and play as hard as i could. ABC poker for about two hours, and moved my €80 to €210. I found the quality of play very poor (maybe it was just the table) and not far ahead of the micro-limit games. Then i decided id have a go at €2-€4. Shorted handed table again, this time i brought €120. Now this was a different animal to the €1-€2 game, the quality of play was a lot better but the bloody deck went cold on me for a good 45 mins, here is the first hand i played that i won, and after this i spotted that these players actually respected raises and could tell if your hand was strong, i put in a few moves (not many) and left the table with €184. Overall i was happy with my play and the bankroll i have i should be playing €2-€4, but for the time being i think that ill be happy with the muppets at the€1-€2 games.
