Default What\'s the main reason you\'re not playing one limit higher?

Maybe this should go in the psychology forum. Should make for interesting results. I realize that for most of you more than one answer applies, just pick the best one. (sorry if this has caused bad memories/flashbacks from college multiple choice exams)

It's all the swings. I have no doubt I could beat the Party 15-30 for 2/100, but I just couldn't stand to lose 3k on a downswing, even though I have a 20k BR. It would just make me a lil' too crazy I think.

I plan to get to Party 15/30, just need to put in the hands at each level along the way and obviously earn a good rate at each one along the way. This is so I make sure to get enough experience, improve along the way, and more slowly accustom myself to the size of the swings.

I'm playing 10/20 6-max now and though I theoretically have a large enough bankroll for 15/30, I want a pretty large cushion before I move up so I'm comfortable. I probably won't make the move until I have at least 600 BB's for it in my BR.

Havent played much more than 20K hands at any limit and with the swings in 6max, I´d like a bit more before moving up. I´m also making too many mistakes that I realize right after, need to stop that first.

I'm a micro player primarily, 1/2, but with a little 2/4 here and there. I'd like to beat 1/2 for 300 BBs before I move up, because I hear it's good to learn to wade through these tighter games. it has been so far.
