I know this book a guy wrote where he talks quite a bit about people's changing ability levels over time. A player was telling me recently about a game where he cashed out nine racks after a tortuous 36 hour session. He told me that he had to quit when he saw horns growing out of his neighbors head. Sounds like a pretty good stop-loss to me. david aka potmo This assumes that a game is not a dynamic entity wherein your skill level relative to your opponents is constantly changing.

Can you elaborate on all stakes from micro-limit to high-stakes?" Traditionally, when a new player pool opens up, it starts out soft and gets gradually tougher. This happens on every scale, whether it's a three-table brick-and-mortar casino, or a continental internet poker surge. So in a sense, games are always getting tougher, except when there are gushes of new players and availability. No one knows what the future will bring. That's why I think it's a really good idea to play your best today. :) Tommy Hi Kien,

Online, I have noticed that the games are getting tougher. I understand that poker goes through cycles. When do you think the games are going to get softer and more available? Can you elaborate on all stakes from micro-limit to high-stakes? Thanks Tommy. You the man!
