So, what to do? I think the best route for me is to continue beating the games that I beat, and when I see a bigger game that looks real good and I'm upswinging in my current game, then take a shot at the bigger game. This is unfortunate because as I mentioned my bankroll and skill sets can support the game, but unfortunately my mind can't. Now, put me in a 10/20 no limit game with $2000 or $2500 and suddenly I become afraid of the money and don't play well. If I'm in a 2/5 no limit game or a 5/10 no limit game and have $1000 in front of me I don't think about the money at all. The one big issue I've faced when moving up is that my mind can't handle the swings of the bigger games. While my bankroll and skillset are ready to rock and roll, my mind isn't quite ready for the journey. I think my skill set is there to move up. I try hard not to fall into that trap and always try to be realistic. As poker players we all seem to think we're better than we really are. Well, after a good summer at the WSOP and cutting down on my spending habits, my bankroll is in good shape and very sufficiently rolled to move on up to a bigger game. There are a few factors that come into play when I'm deciding. I have dabbled at the higher buy in No Limit games and had mixed results. Recently I've been struggling with the idea of moving up in stakes.
