I think the burning question is why you're taking a whuppin at the $25NL tables. Are they bad beats? Are you calling when you shouldn't? Are your big hands just not getting paid off? Just variance?

You seemed to be doing okay when I was at your table.

I've only been on Paradise a couple of weeks but I'm running at 15ptbb/100 so far, that's just over $100 in 1k hands and I know I'm not playing that well. Now it seems that I've had a good run of cards, but I don't think that's the whole story... the games at Paradise are very soft.

If you're feeling uncomfortable at Paradise then switching's probably okay; but if there's a leak it's worth fixing it, not just going in search of fishier opponents.

BTW, yeah get Neteller (US$), it's great.
