Default Re: Moving from 1/2 to 2/4 back to 1/2 how it helps

I actually play better when I move up, as every chip IS more important to me.

At $1/2, I'm subject to call a river raise 'just to see what he's got.'

It's only a couple of bucks. However, the same raise in $2/4 would make me fold if I thought I had little hope of winning the hand (which is usually the case).

In summary, $2/4 helped my $1/2 game, but only because it made me make better marginal decisions. Now, when I drop down and play more tables of 1/2, I try to carry that same mentality to that game. Be aggressive with winners, but don't be scared to drop losers like a hot potato.
