Default Does this look like someone who is competent?

Ok, so I took a shot at 100NL 6max, and it went well. Then I hit a pretty bad downswing that continued with bad play and trying to recoop losses. Then, just as I was getting my confidence back, I had another bad session today. About 20% of it can be attributed to tilt, but still.... Does this look like I am a winning player? Or is it time to throw it in and step back to 50NL 6max?

Well since your crushing the $50 NL game, moving up seems realistic. When on a bad run, however, go back to the 50. Rebuild and work your way back up.

Not playing on tilt also helps!

10k is too small a sample size for us to realistically say he is "crushing" the $50 game. Likewise, it is too small a sample size to say he is playing badly at the $100 (although his comments about tilt, etc. lead me to believe he is).

Oops, fixed the pictures...






Anyone else have any advice? Should I stick with it? Or grind the 50s for a little longer?

Not to be an a-hole, but please spare me the sample size stuff.(Jman, this is not directed at you, I was going to say it in my first post, but forgot.) I realize that the sample size isn't big enough, but I can't just make up 200,000 hands. This is what I have. As said many times on here, poker is a game of incomplete information. Please help me make the best decision based on the information I have. Thanks.

50NL is 34.7/10.3/1.8

100NL is 32.2/9.6/2.2

So, not a whole lot. I think I might be getting too aggressive when I'm already beat in 100NL because fewer people chase draws in 100NL.

i don't know anything about no limit, but if i could make 9bb/100 at 50/100 limit or 1.25 at 100/200, i would play 30/60. decide for yourself, it's not that hard.
