Any advice?

My current winrate is 3.55/100 at .5/1 after 12000 hands. After 3500 hands at 1/2 my winrate is (2.89)BB/100.

Is there something fundementally different that I am missing at 1/2? I understand 3500 is not much but thats over 100BB's down. Is that something I should just expect to happen as part of the game?

If you're playing *EXACTLY* the same at 1/2 as you were at .5/1, you can expect your winrate to go down overall (not this dramatic -- that looks much more like variance). There are differences, and if you can't tell what those differences are, you should go back to .5/1 for a while and pay more attention to what's going on.

1/2 is a lot different than .5/1. If you are still winning, stay in 1/2 and try to figure out what you are doing wrong.

It's a bit tighter and slightly more aggressive. Less able to limp with marginal hands. Statistically I am tighter by a few percent so far. PFR is over 8%. I am hoping it's just a bad run.

One leak I have noticed is calling down a little too often at 1/2. At .5/1 it pays off to do it, doesn't look like it does at 1/2.
