Is it time for me to move up?

I've played about 20k $25NL full ring hands.

I'm playing short stack strategy with minimal buyin. Thus my starting bankroll was $100.

I've made about $500 to date. My biggest swing was -$100 and then +$200 the next day.

Is it time for me to move up to the next limit?

Hi, read an great post a while ago written by fimbulwinter namely LINK this one. It's about the skills and bankroll you need for taking shots at higher levels.

Honestly, if you are up to $500 I would start buying in full at the $25 tables (you have 20 buy-ins) and learn how play with 100BB stacks. Are you honestly going to continue with the short-stacked startegy as you continue to move up stakes? People that only play with a short-stack are just costing themselves money IMO.

I think min buy in is 20% or $5 right, you lost 100 in one day?

yes to everything in your *question*

[yvesaint]

you should NOT be moving up, you should be buying in FULL at 25 NL so you can actualy learn what to do on turns/rivers

depends on how many short buy-in tables he can play versus max buy-in for 100bb's.

You will lose your BR at 50NL playing your shortstack strategy. Buyin full at the 25NL tables and learn how to play real poker.
