This might not even be a shot if you can beat 1/2 online.

was thinking the same thing

skillwise you can beat it, i think the problem comes in the higher variance thats tough to handle

Yeah, in all seriousness, I think "shot-taking" mode should be 300BB, and actual moving up limits is 400-500BB. This has been discussed before and it really comes down to a matter of personal comfort.

As far as live play goes, people usually play higher than they do online.

I agree. I am actually rolled for 20/40, but the psychological factors and the fear that I secretly suck and won't find out till I lose all my BR plagues me. The swings at higher limits are more severe and that took a small toll on my play for that session.

FWIW, I will be beating the game in 6 months. The players were not that good, and I believe with a little study and some focused play at 3/6 6 max, my game should dominate them soon.

I think my next step as a player is to learn how to deal with swings. Until I do this, I do not think I will have the balls to play well at high limits.
