Final decision on moving up

[livinitup0]

Ive had a few posts in the past couple of days that have sparked some debae over stats, table selection, and other related topics.

I "crushed" .50/1 for a while. (search my moving up post a week ago for stats) I moved up and now I keep hearing in the back of my head: "If you can't find a fish, you are probably it" every night. Im not comfortable with 1/2 and I'm feeling overwhelmed. I have no idea what I need to change up in my game since I have no real sample size.
What major changes do I need to make in 1/2? Ive moved up 3-4 times back and forth from .50/1 and 1/2 and I get killed each time. This may spark that "skip PP 1/2 full debate" but seriously am I throwing money away at this limit? I can sit for about a month or so with bonuses at .50/1 and make enough to start 2/4 in mid sept. To me this sounds like suicide, but I've heard it quite a bit lately.
If not, how do I work on my game from .50/1 to 1/2 without ripping my hair out each time? If 1/2 is hard, then heck what is 2/4 going to be like?

Any sugestions, critisism and other ramblings would be appreciated!

Do you know why you "crushed" $.50/1? If you were to sit down with a string of 100 consecutive hands at a single table, could you identify the mistakes that your opponents are making and how you've maximized on them? Can you identify your own mistakes?

It's possible that you can beat $.50/1 on your intuition alone, but that $1/2 is above your intuition. And if it's above your intuition, then you're going to need to work to beat it. A good way to measure where your intuition drops off is to see if you can actually analyze the value of your plays.

Wow, didnt think about it that way. So maybe I just go back to .50/1 bonuses, and start pulling old hand histories out for a while? Or maybe pull some 1/2 and see what Im doing wrong there?

Move to 1/2, getting in on table 41424 right now

if you can't beat 1/2 you likely can't beat 2/4 so skipping 1/2 is a bad idea
