Hey guys
I played Nl25 from 490$ to ~685$+50$ bonus.
I should probably play at Nl25 awhile longer but... When do you guys think i should move up a limit to Nl50 ?
30BIs or something, or just take a shot and go down if i lose 3 BIs or something ?

Thanks guys !
PS. I was really unlucky one period by loosing JJJ vs QQQ KK vs J10 got rivered and stuffs but this is how it looked over the course of my sessions.
I dont remember all of my badbeats over the course but here is some of them, but i think i can win in the long run though.
491$
611$
702$
678$-Lost topset +QQ vs KK pre(got trapped)+Flopped straight against rivered flush.
653$
675$
621$-------Lost KK vs J10 rivered (all in on flop)
658$ ------Lost JJJ vs QQQ 70$ pot
651$
701$
683$+50$ bonus

Play nl$25 until you have 35 buyins for nl$50 then give it a 5bi shot.

So $1,750 at least.

weren't you playing 10nl like a week ago? Not being a dick or anything but i wouldnt be moving up until you've proved you can beat 25nl over a big sample.

Changed strategy by reading much and working my way up, have been crushing Nl25 lately even though i have been badbeaten really much + gotten "coolers" with set over set.
But yeah.. i think ill stay until i got like 1750$ like the previous poster said.

Can you quantify what you mean by "crushing nl25"? What's your win rate per 100?

I dont know how to calculate that but i won like 9 BIs in one day like 200$
and then i ran really bad with my luck but anyway stayed either a small winner or a small looser due to loosing set vs sets and stuffs which i know was impossible to get away from. I wasn´t even on tilt because i knew that some was pure coolers and the others was just unlucky getting rivered and stuffs.

Thing is you probably didnt run as bad as you think, its totally standard to go up and down as much as 9 bi's day to day. You probably ran really good when you made 9 bi's in a day (even when you get AA aipf against a fishes AJ you should be losing occasionally). Do you not use pokertracker or HEM for a HUD? do you know what a hud is? If you're playing hudless and not tracking your results i would get that sorted if you really want to beat the games, theres no disadvantage in using a hud and id say 98% of regular players at 25nl will also be using them.

Winning 9BI in one day is not crushing a level, it's a heater. Crushing a limit is beating it consistently for 5BB/100+ over a decent sample of 25K hands+ imo.

Saw you at my table the other day btw. Not much action vs you but I did 4bet you with AA, and you folded. Good fold :D

I would wait until you have at least 30BI for 50nl before taking shots.
