Ahh, now that depends on your skill level. I think nl50 is a tricky place to be as it still has a good mix of donks and sharks, i found it easyier and quicker building my bankroll on lower tables and basically jumped nl50, i dont advise this just something i choose to do. But NL100 still has its fair share of hit and run players, crazy sometimes i can find a table with 4-6 ppl sat with less than 50bb, some enter with 20.

In my opinion on 25nl and higher its easyer to count on your reads and have succesfull semibluffs, on lower limits you'll just get called with everything. For me it is harder to make proffit when move down in limits than when i move up. I never played higher than 50NL so i don't know how i do on higher limits.

It is difficult to say. I stayed a lot of time in the nl10, to star the growing of my account. I went to the next limit, and honestly i didnt notice any difference, in the nl50 i notice some difference, the players are better, but it is better playing there! less donkeys

Well it is really hard for me to say which one is more risky. I am confused with myself. But i have something in my mind. And i think NL25->NL50 is more risky. That's what i think.

You dont have too many donks playing in 25-50 because their bonus is just not enough for that, thats why the player quality is considerably higher and you notice the level is higher, better and more complex. Thats where the game begins to be interesting, and where people start to talk more about skill and techniques and less about luck!

Posted by kevinnivek: what level do you think is more nototrious the different skill levels?
for me im trying to go up to NL100 from NL50 on full tilt and it seems too hard comparing one to another.
not the same impact of NL25 To NL 50
still i'm positive on nl100 but my winrate is lower than nl50
Be careful the higher you go the more people you encounter with tracking software since there aren't that many people playing NL100 since you need at least 2000$ to play this limit
NL25-50 is a nice level to play at. Good amount of money to be made. I played at those limits with maybe $200 in my roll. I know that's a little low to be playing those limits, but I didn't do too too bad, but eventually went back down to NL10-25. What size of bankroll do you guys require yourselves to have to play 25-50??

Well, I haven't really played in a lot of "higher" limits.. But I must say nl25 to nl50 seems significant, I think NL25 still appeals to a lot of freeroll/no deposit/etc players with small bankroll but will to buy-in with the whole amount, nl50 requires a bit more of a roll, at least to be seen on the table more than once.. I've tried a few NL100 games, and certainly more 'advanced' than nl50 generally, but I think there's a lot of people with small rolls who go into them for an instant chip-up and hence lower the overall standard.. So i dont think nl50 to nl100 in my experience is as extreme than 25 to 50

Yeah it's gotta be NL25 to NL50, especially at FullTilt.
My styles of play between the two limits changes drastically, as I reckon TAG @ NL25 is the only way but can be boring after a while, I can open up my play at NL50 and above and tend to enjoy it a lot more.
