Is there any reason to move down other than to build confidence? I mean, if I can't beat 2/4, I can't play poker for a living. And if I'm a losing player making bad decisions, the only thing that 1/2 will do for me is cut my loss rate in half.

move down imo

[/ QUOTE ]bad 3 barrel spot (really bad, dan, dunno why youd make this move in this spot...) but i dont think this hand in a nutshell is a "move down you are not worthy of playing this high" type hand.

heh ive only played like 30 hands w/ddubois and this is the only big pot we've played, so ofc im gonna post it when he starts all self-hating and crap for doing bad at 2/4
