Guys I need some advice on moving up and BR management, I feel this is a specific case and I'd rather not be directed to the BR management essay as I have read it numerous times.
I am using 600BB/level for my Bankroll.
I am currently at .10/.20 LHE 3tabling 6max.
My BR is right at $150 (started with a free $50 from Titan) which I have grown through .02/.04 and .05/.10 LHE Full Ring
My winrate in these games has been off the charts b/c the players are extra fishy and I do understand these games quite well.
My first question: What winrate can I expect as the levels increase. At .10/.20 the players seem as poor as the mircolimit games. As I move to .25/.50 and on I know the play will certainly improve and my winrate will drop dramatically. So, what does a good player make at 1/2, 2/4, and so on. Am I looking at 3BB/100 or more like 1.5BB/100.
My second question: Can someone move up too quickly? I have crunched the number and believe I can win 6BB/100 at this fishy .10/.20 game, this would only leave me less than two weeks to get to .25/.50, even less if I can play more than I have scheduled to play. If I can win 4BB/100 at .25/.50 I can move up in just under 3 Weeks. If I can win 3BB/100 at .5/1 then I can move up in just under a month. Is this moving up too quickly, would you suggest a specific number of hands to play? Looks like at 3BB/100 it will take me 10K hands to move up, that seems like plenty to me. Just to let you know, I have budgeted myself 2 Hrs each day to play. If I can keep my focus I plan on playing as long as I can each day. 2 Hrs is only 420 hands or so each day, Id like to double that if at all possible. That means I could be moving fairly quickly through these levels if all goes to plan. Somewhere around 1 month to move up 3 levels, is this too quick?
I know nothing is exact in poker and these numbers can change very easily, but I have dedicated myself to learning the game and I believe I can succeed at it. All in all, I am not trying to make a living off of poker, I just would like to make some nice change. I wouldnt mind grinding it out at 3/6 or 5/10 playing 1K hands a day at 1.5BB/100. I have a lot of work to get there but I feel I can do it.

just move up.
.25/.50 will be just as bad as what you're playing now. There really isn't that big a jump until you hit 3/6 where some people are pros
