True, there is an experience factor that you would be given up. As I moved through the 1/2 limits to 3/6 there were subtle changes in the quality of players and the play.

That is exactly why I haven't budged from 1/2. I find the players just dead-money and I see no reason to move up and play better players when I know profit may be marginally higher at best or worst case I may start losing.

Are you talking about O8?

I think you should know Mr. Lawyer .

Yes, most of the players that play O8 are beginners who try their luck at low-limits, as in .25/.50 (I remember grinding these tables), .50/1.00 (these were boring as well), and now I have found the perfect balance at 1/2. Some players are good, most are bad, and the mix is just right to allow some steady growth to my bankroll.

In January I had stated that my goal was to profit $3000 this year, and I am already up around $1600, and it is only early April. My new aim is $5K, and who knows if I start focusing more on MTTs.
