Ok...well like I said it depends on how long it takes him to get to the level of winning he is at at 5/10...if he spends 100 hours playing until he gets to break even...then thats -$2000, and then it takes him another 100 hours to get to the winning level he is at in 5/10, which would be 2*$100, or $200/hours, but since it is a slow curve of growth over those 100 hours after the break even point, so thats $100/hour for 100 hours, or +$10,000.

So trying 10/20 for 200 hours netted him -$2000 + $10000 = $8000
whereas at 5/10 he made $100/hour for 200 hours or $20k, so there is a difference of $12k which is significant, but what if you did it over a 400 hour period?

5/10: 400*$100= $40k
learning 10/20 = 100*-$20 + 100*$100 + 200*$200 = $48k

So in the long run....

Of course it all depends on being able to beat the 10/20NL like he beats the 5/10NL
