yes, in theory, those type of players would jump at the chance. but the reason that they're not already making more is that these players simply aren't good enough, for various reasons (not just skill alone) to beat bigger levels. tilt, expenses, poor emotional control, etc and so on. if they had the means to play higher, they'd get eaten up by the already small player pool of very tough players playing 5/10 and 10/20 and 25/50nl.

FWIW, there is definitely a pretty biggish group of players playing crushing NL100-NL400 that could presumably do pretty well or even very well at 5/10 or 10/20 or whatever.

I agree with you that many of them may have trouble playing with larger amounts of money, and obviously it would be a total logistical nightmare to weed them out. Plus, like I said before, I think it's really hard for even good poker players to identify other good poker players without a good amount of information.
