Re: Why small stakes players should move up in limit as soon as possible.
Almost 2BB per hundred hands isn't "bad" it's impossible for average players to overcom. I hear what you're saying but 2/4 isn't really profitable with a rake that big unless you can beat much higher limits, and if you just stay in 2/4 you will never learn the concepts that higher limits require. Sooner or later you will have to learn them IMHO it might as well be sooner than spending forever trying to build a 400BB bankroll out of a 100 bucks when you're paying $7 per 100 hands just to play.
You can start off playing tighter than usual and reduce your variance by not raising in more marginal situations.
