when to move up
Played my first B&M on Monday for 7 hours had a blast and learned a lot and only lost $60. Went back on thurs. and played for 7 hours and won 220. How should I approach the subject of moving up in stakes? I currently play 3-6. I'm trying not to get to excited but I had so much fun applying the limit skills that I have learned from 2+2's books and this forum. After playing in a limit card game I can see that it is nothing like no-limit. So given the facts when should I consider moving up? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: when to move up
The short answer is not for a long time. Wait until you're consistently beating the game and you have your 300 BBs for the next level.

Re: when to move up
I'm going to go a different route here. In many casinos, there is little difference between the levels. For example, the 3/6 will play more or less equally to the 2/4 and 6/12 (or 4/8, whatever).
The differences are table to table, not limit to limit. As such, if you see a juicy 6/12 game, and your bankroll is large enough that you can afford a loss, feel free to hop into the game. Table selection is the most important part.

Re: when to move up
Play at the level you can afford to play. If your bankroll can sustain/justify a higher limit, then cut your teeth at that limit.
FWIW, 2 sessions in B&M games is absolutely nothing.
