Default What is consider High Stakes?

I think there should be a clarification or something because i don't know where to post what.

For example, is 10/20 NL cash online high stakes or mid stakes?

It is high stakes. 2/4nl up is mid stakes.

i eould say 5-10 and up is probably a " high stakes game" online. def a 10-20 game. live i would say 8-16 up, but people may consider that to be lowish

buyins for 8-16 is like 300 bucks, its a smaller game than 1-3 NL, which is the smallest game allowed at my casino.

i can imagine who thought 8/16 is a good idea. I bet you lose 4 hands an hour while dealers make change.
