Default Move up in level?

I've played 30K hands at 1/2, average win rate of 2 BB/100.
Is this good enough to move up in level? Say to 2/4 or 3/6?

What is a good target BB/100 win rate for any level?

Basically, I'm not sure if my rate is good, avg., or poor for someone playing on a regular basis and using SSHE principles.

Thanx in advance for any feedback.

Without any other information, you should be able to do fine at 2/4. 3/6 is tougher, especially of late, I think. If you're bankroll > $1200, I'd say definitely go for 2/4.

yea I mean even if your winrate gets cut in half which proboly wont happen you will still be making more than you were at 1/2, go for it, 2/4 is supposed to be juicier than 1/2 from what i've heard.

30K hands is not enough to confidently determine your winrate. You could still be a breakeven, losing, or winning player in the long run. But 30K hands should be enough to confidently determine that you are ready for the next level.

yes, i agree 30K isn't enough. I look forward to getting alot more in at 2/4, hopefully move up from there before too long! :-)

What is a "good" low limit (say up to 5/10) win rate for someone who has logged a couple hundred thousand hands?

It is highly unlikely that after 30k hands at 2BB/100 you are a losing player...but break even or around there is still possible: you can't even come close to determining your true win rate.
