Default Re: Getting ready to move up.

Play more hands. 4500 hands is really not that much. I thought that I was ready after 10K hands, but learned so much more during the next 10k hands that I thought I had learned poker all over again.

1/2 is a much different game then .50/1. You can make huge mistakes in .50/1 but still have winning sessions because the pots you win will more then make up for the bets you lose by being a donk. As you move up, you will find less and less palyers that will be in pots till the river, therefore sometimes half the pot is money you put into it.

If you want to move up, go for it. You may be a much better player then I was at the time. All I am saying is that 4500 hands says almost nothing about whether you are beating the game or not.
