moving up 100nl -> 200nl

[meleader2]

i'm ready to make the move. my bankroll has recently become a roll and not a life roll as well, therefore i've been able to "save up" and follow the rules keeping 20 buy ins.

I play full ring. I play on whatever site has RB and bonuses.

I've been playing like this, with my 40 hour a week job, since 6/11.



I dabbled in 200nl during this time, and am down 4 buyins from it. I've been playing scared. I know what I have to do, that is play less tables. I play 9 on ultimate bet, but should be playing 3 at a time to keep my numbers highish. I got pushed off hands easily, but even with 20 buyins i think i'd be playing with scared money. i'm sure, as i'm going to be told, that it's just cuz i'm not used to it.

i bluff heavily on 100nl and don't think anything of 1 buy in. with time, i will not think much of it with 200nl, but i'm highly interested in what others have to say about moving up to a level like this, where i was easily able to cont. bet and take pots down easily but now if i cont. bet it's snapped off like taking candy from a baby.

UB i realize is tougher than PP, but not as much as you guys think, trust me on that one.


just for [censored] and giggles, my stats from 6/11 to present, 100nl was 50k hands, 1.52 ptbb/100 (with bonuses puts me ~4k). no pic, i'm at work. i'll check this later/answer questions after i get some time.


i seriously appreciate any input, even if it is YSSCKY. TWP, that's your cue. thanks.
