 I've been playing 1/2 since late october, and i've done pretty well, at least I think so. My stats are:

11,986 Total Hands
14.17 VP$IP
342 BB Won
2.85 BB/100
7.09 PFR
2.51 Agg

Total Bankroll = $2539 (600 BB @ 2/4)

Total Bonuses to clear = 560

...I guess its pretty much a no brainer. I'm just a 'lil timid.

EDIT: Mike asked about my Standard Deviation numbers....they are VERY high:

SD per Hr - 23.4
SD per 100 - 29

I have no idea

I've always moved up by mixing in one table of the higher limit until I felt comfortable. The key is not to be too results-oriented. It's always hard if you run cold and lose at twice your previous rate.

move up?
You could skip 2/4 going to 3/6 or even possibly even 5/10 on a semi-short BR.


Without a doubt I'd go to 2/4..

Well I have a > 3500 bankroll and I still am always chillin at the 25NL and 50cent/100cent limit tables recently so u arent the only one playing far below your bankroll support. I am also timid I suppose. My logic is money is so easy why leave a good thing. I know I know to make more money and I will when I get some more time - christmas break like elipsejeff possibly. ha
