The lower I play, the worse are my results.
 

I just cant gear down after moving down, and usually run worst at the lowest stakes I play. Make alot of bad calls with any hand, multitable liberally which makes my game alot worse.

Oh and noticed I am immune to tilt if I play 2 tables or less and very easily tilt while playing 4+. Is it common?

Somehow I just cannot play the mid-stakes. Aynone else also thinks that 5-10 or 10-20 is the hardest limit and then it only gets easier no matter what direction you are moving?

Maybe b/c trying to multi is hard work and your mind is trying to do so many things at once makes it easier to stress/tilt.
I have heard alot of people on here say that the intermediate levels are often the hardest. Even at the casino I play most people say 6-12, and 8-16 hold em is hardest.

Can't speak for those particular games/limits, but I hate having to move down, because I also play my worst when I do. I find it very hard to go from PL $100 max to $25 max. I always think people are playing back at me more than they really are, and I try to play too many tables because I don't see winning $10 as a decent pot. I also lose more because of tilt, but I wouldn't say it's because I tilt worse. It's just that I don't recognize it as easily if I'm only playing two tables.

I had the same problem, which I attributed to (1) not respecting my opponents at the lower levels and (2) impatience over winning less money and much more willingly committing my stack in bad spots in poor attempts to accelerate the $.

I don't have enough respect or concern for my money when I play lower and it makes me play quite poorly, to be honest. Very spewy.

The same holds true if I play too high, it's just that, at these limits, I'm playing too cautiously. Bottom line, I'm not being/playing myslef and it's very hard to do well when you're not in your element.

Gotta play at a limit where you can still make "all the moves" that make you, YOU, but at the same time, the bets have to hurt a little bit, too. Not a lot, just enough to keep you properly focused and ready for war. That's my take on it anyway.
