Trying to decide what would be more profitable: 4 tabling $50 NL or single table at $200 NL. Obviously competition is stiffer at $200 but then again you can focus much more on your opponents, etc. Any thoughts?

More hands in a timeframe, less variance. Bigger bonuses. Probably 4xNL50 for a smallish sample

You dont really want to one table.

4x 50 ainec - and this is from someone who prefers playing less tables.

The games are much harder at 200NL. A higher winrate at 50NL just by itself means your hourly will be higher with less negative periods (assuming you are a winning player of course).

You want to play the maximum number of tables you can play while maximizing your win rate. The limit you play should be determined by your bankroll and your ability to beat said limit.

Question. What bankroll are you playing with?

Yo, honestly not trying to be a dick or anything but just read some of your other posts and I gotta say don't do either. 50nl is hard. take it from me, I won like 5k luckboxing tourneys underage and got absolutely raped at 50nl when I jumped in with no practice. Trust me, start lower, you will make **** moeny but hopefully you enjoy playing poker and maybe one day you'll be able to play 50nl. Post hh in the micro forum and read the stickies there. Start at 2nl/5nl and build.
Again, I'm not trying to be a dick, just trying to help.

I would play 5/10 cap because it is much easier to win because you have alot of reads on opponents.
