i get ur point. but seriously, u think cuz ive lost $ overall in a Very tough and high variance game it means its a very simple decision to continue playing 5/10 and not 10/20?

Ya, I'm a overall loser at 10/20, but i dont think it means much. Give me a year and I'd bet by then I'm a significant Winner at 10/20. Like Fungus said, right now in the short term, ya its costing me $. But i dont care about the short term, I'd much rather lose a few thousand playing 10/20 now and improve to be able to beat the game eventually. Seems much better than grinding at 5/10 with no plan to move up. Also, I beleive sessions at 10/20 make my 5/10 game seem much easier.

I know ur trying to make a point, but is this serious? I mean this just doesnt really apply to poker or this situation at all. I have the ability to improve, its not like i get a fixed salary of -20/hr if i play 10/20.

In both cases you are making points for, the logic you are describing would be that I never should have even moved up from 1/2 NL , cuz when i first started 2/4 I got killed. So I really dont agree with what ur saying at all.
