I also wouldn't make sweeping generalizations about a particular stake. Just like 10k hands is not a sufficient sample to determine skill or winrate, popping into a table and playing a few rotations is not a good representation of how a particular stake plays. I can say that you will find less bad players on 10 as opposed to 5, naturally, and so on up the stakes, but that doesn't mean that there isn't soft money if you are willing to carefully table select. also : table select, table select, table select. 2 tables with position on deep loose players is better than 4 tables full of 11/8 nits
My own advice would be to play 30k hands at 5nl before moving up to 10 to get a feel for your average winrate. If you are raking in 6bb+/100 I would say start taking some shots. Also track your ev bb/100 throughout your sessions to make sure that variance isn't just in your corner.
Very helpful, thank you.
