Default Which poker table would be more likely to have good players?

a low stakes no limit table or a medium stakes fixed/pot limit table? a medium stakes no limit table or a high stakes fixed/pot limit table?

Default Better players

Generally the higher stakes should have better players.

The less played the game, the easier it tends to be. These days, the limit games - especially away from Stars/FT - tend to be significantly softer than the equivalent buyin NL at a given site.

True, but a lot of high stakes players would get crushed at low stakes due to call stations and there style of play is not best at beating these dudes that play the low stakes games online and especially live.

Default i think that the lower stakes

in Absolute Poker for example.. when people play for fun to money they go from playing a 9 man table to a 6 man table. in this case, ur going to be the bb faster therefor if you dont pick up the cards you need you need to have a little more skill.. naturally i think some people are just blessed with money so they will player a higher stakes game, however people with lower money a lot of people have earned there way there. through freeroles or just depositing. but even if they deposit, its their money (which they will be concervative with) and therefor they will be more likely to play overly concervative.

The higher players are definately having an easier job, for example. you are playing 1 villain. so obviously bluffetology is going to come into effect a lot. and plus pairing a highcard on the flop with that is pretty much a money winner. so to me, i'd definately say that people who play lower stakes definately have more of a better playing ethic then one whos rich.

dont take me the wrong way, there are several players out there who have pt. and have a lot of money and have developed into a pretty big dog on the field. know your limits and have good judgement.

I run into a lot of problems on micro limits as well. I dont play super high or anything, but in 50/1 and 1/2 no limit up to 2/4 limit im a fairly consistent winner, but lower limits i seem to get slapped around. Its strange

I recently had an 11 buyin downswing and also sold some $$ online for cash so I had to drop back down in stakes to 50NL. I have to say, 50NL is whiffleball compared to 100NL. You rarely get 3bet and the biggest plays made on you are floats. It's so much more of a straight forward game than even one limit higher.
