Default Re: Step up to $2/$4?

cappy made a good point. You have to be comfortable at the new level. Naturally it can be intimidating when playing for more money. One way to avoid feeling uncomfortable is by "taking a shot" set aside 50BB (or 100, or 75 or whatever) and treat it as lost money. Then move to 2/4 and play until you a) lose it all
b) realize you're not ready and move down
c) make 2/4 your main game

You MUST be mentally willing to lose it all in order to play comfortably and maximize your success.
