Default Time to move up?

I've only recently started playing SSNL full-ring tables as I'm trying to transition from a sit-n-go player to a ring game baller. I decided to take some advice from a previous post on 2p2 in that I would play 20K hands at 50NL and I had set a goal for myself of 4BB/100. I've played about 10K hands and am at just over 9BB/100. I feel that I'm good enough to move up and I've got 20 buy-ins for 100NL in my bankroll. However, I feel that the players at 50NL are for the most part a lot of donkeys. How different will the skill level of my opponents be at 100NL as opposed to 50NL? Time to move-up, or should I play another 10K hands at 50NL to guarantee that I'm crushing these tables before moving up?

Players are only slightly better postflop; Preflop ALOT more aggressive.

Tip: Try playing tight, 15/12 poker for your first 5k hands to get a feel. If you drop more than 4 BI, head back to 50NL.

You will never know until you move up. The fact that you are posting here asking for "permission" to move up says to me that you still have some doubt. If you have doubt that wait till you are ready.

Move up. 100NL is a bit a harder but not much. If you can beat 50NL for 9bb you can definatly beat 100NL.
