Why Can't I Move Up?

[Subfallen]

i think you would be wise to reconsider if you really want to continue your time investment in poker...

i say this because even as low as 10/20, losing $1k in a hour is super-standard. if the notion of dropping $300 at 3/6 makes you queasy, i'm not sure that you're cut out for this game.

of course you know best if you will be able to conquer this risk-aversion; but grinding through a prolonged stint at microlimits only to find that 10/20+ are just too stressful for you to play...that would blow.
