The 2/3 is a knitting fest. It has it's moments since they can spread as many as 5 tables. The 2/2 is by far the best value player looseness wise. The 5-5 can be tough in the day time, and even at night. Usually better to play the 8-16 limit then the 5-5 blind ... unless you see a good game. Here, Caro's law of poker applies, the 2nd highest limit game is usually the best and thats the 20-40 limit hold'em,

If you're solid, now when to slip and slide, the 10-10 NL 2k buyin can be lucrative ... just watch out for the local pro's Ya know, the ones wearing Tommy Bahama shirts.
