Moving up the PP Steps

[docknet]

The past week or so I've been moving up the PP Steps and am now at Step 4. So far it has been fairly routine. In fact, I have found it somewhat easier than placing or winning a $10 or $10 2-Table SnG.

One reason for that is, of course, that you only have to hold on until 4th (or 6th in Step 3) to achieve your goal--moving up.

Anyway, I'm wondering if I will run into superior players (superior to what I've seen so far) in the next two steps. I keep reading here about some of you are skipping the first 3 or 4 steps to pick off the novices who moved up through the ranks...

I'm assuming that selective-agressive play can still win the day. And, of course, staying out of traps.
