I moved up from .50/1 limit to 1/2 and didnt find much difference, I am $300 away from having a bankroll sufficient for 2/4. I want to start maybe by April 15th, May at most, but I don't want to cross over until Im beating 1/2 for 2x bb/100...Im thinking that maybe in15k or 20k hands I might be able to move up a notch, but is 2/4 much different than 1/2? should I be playing more hands and beating 1/2 for more BB/100 before I move up a level?

yes. you should also budget yourself with more than 1200 as the aggression is a marked difference. YOu also won't come across as many multiway pots and you'll come across good players more. You'll need a few more tools then you would to beat 1/2. It'll take a littel adjustment and the swings will be a bit more brutal, but you can make good money at it, You'll be able toput people on hands more. Definetly get in about 20-30K hands at 1/2 before you make the jump. Good luck

Nah. I caugh the Deer Creek, Alpine, Hampton and Camden show was my last. I was crying listening tot he simulcast on my xm radio. It tore m up that they were hurting so bad on stage while they played their last show together. i hope they come back but I fear Trey may be too proud to go back on his word of Phish being over. Guess there is always TAB shows now.

I was real pissed that I couldn't go to alpine. I hadn't missed an alpine set since 98. Camden was rough. Coventry was fun but also rough as trye just didn't have it, and the mud sucked ass. The whole lawn area was a bog and would've been real nice if all of the rain had messed it up. But it was a great time. I hadn't been to a festival and made sure I made this one since I was supposed to go to IT, but didn't

IT was sick. That was their best show post-hiatus. I thought they played some really strong sets in that little run before Coventry. in particular, the Saratoga shows were very strong, and the Deer Creek shows were brilliant. The Camden show had a really strong 1st set IMO. Hampton was a bit of a let down compared to some of the past shows there. The 1st set was raging, but the 2nd set seemed way off. Not sure what happened. But yeah, Trey seemed pretty zonked out at Coventry. He was definitely on some "medication" that 2nd night. Wowzers.

yeah I downloaded IT and was so mad at myself for coming up with the reason that I did(I had school work that I never did :doh: ). Missing out on Meatstick is the biggest Phish regret of my life. Yeah that second set at Camden left a little to be desired. I really enjoyed the unniondale show in the Feb run last year and the Philly show in the nov run was a real fun one, not neccessarily great but real fun
