Movin' up!

Todays results: +$25 at PS and +14e at MG.

My BR on PokerStars has reached $303 and I’m going to move up to 0,5/1 tomorrow!

What have improved my game and allowed me to profit at 0,25/0,5:
-Playing SOLID abc poker without any flashy plays or bluffs.
-Knowing my pre-flop play. “The Price is Right” is awesome for this.
-Valuebetting relentlessly. “Passing the Torch” is good for learning how to vb properly.
-Playing after Pot odds. Again “Passing the Torch” is very good for learning pot odds.
-Knowing when to fold. Most of the time when you get raised on turn or river it’s not a bluff (at least not on these stakes), when players do this they almost always beat top pair.
-Tilt control. Recognize when you are on tilt and either stop playing, or reduce the amount of tables you play until you are in control again.
-Adapting to the game. It’s important to adjust to the table, for example if you always get called when you cbet with air, maybe you should start cbetting less. And when you do cbet you double barrel instead.

Hopefully someone will get something out of that little list =)

Sounds like we are in the same boat :)
I have just made the move to .50/1 LHE as well. I too have not that long ago had things click for me .25/.50 and can see exactly how to beat the game.

Best of luck with the move, hope to see you at the tables :)
