The BB/100 rate for the $20NL level isn't very accurate due to lack of hands and a recent downswing.

Winrates over 2,000 hands aren't accurate anyway.

This is a dangerous way of thinking, though. Downswings are part of the game like anything else. They are factored into everybody's winrate.

i'm not that ignorant of poker player, lack of hands plus current downswing would make for a inacurrate BB/100 rating.... Why is that a dangerous way to think? It's so inacurrate that if i had one good day, my rate would be substantially better.

anyway, all i really want to know is how much i should deviate from my tight/passive-passive mouse status when moving from one level to another.

I agree that I need more information. With deep stacks, I will limp with any pocket pair from any position. I will raise with jacks up from any position. Midpairs and lower I vary when I raise them in later positions (depending on how many limpers there are, possibility of reraises, etc.)

At a really passive table, I will limp with a lot of the hands you have listed. But normally, I would fold most of those.
