Yeah man go for it. You could try out NL50 or NL100 for a while. You will be surprised how little the difference is in skill. There are still fish and nits at every level. Real solid graph man, keep up the good work!

Maybe you should try going up to NL50 and playing the same way you are now. IMO NL100 is when the skill level really begins to increase. NL25 and NL50 have never really felt that different to me. If you move up to NL50 and play the same way you are now, you might find yourself making twice as much money right away.

Yea,try 50nl as above poster said i find skill level really improves at 100,200nl.I just moved from 20nl to 50nl on cake and i actually think at even 10nl and 20nl without good table selection theres players there good enough to play 50nl,gl on the felt keep us informed. As ive had to move back down now im back but im a BR nit also.You will need to cbet more often and even fire 2 barrels on a wet board.

Hi,
I couldnt see your graph. But based on the first response it sounds solid. You have plenty of buy ins for 50nl. So take a shot. What I would do is cut the number of tables you play in 1/2 and go for it. Have a stop loss of 5 buy ins. If you lose 5 bi go back to 25 nl and get back to 3k bank roll then take another shot. As you get comfortable add more tables.

Definitely move up to $100 or even $200. I started out from day one playing at $200 three years ago and played very tight: nothing sophisticated or fancy, just the occasional bluff and it worked very well. Since then I've moved up to nl $400 and there's not really much difference in standard: still lots of impatient players keen to make stupid decisions. The only thing really to look out for are the very few skilled regulars at your new level, who probably will be a bit better than you at first. If you steer clear of them I reckon you'll do fine.....

I mean when people are calling more cbets should prob cbet less and check behind more. i assume u play 6max btw.
Or start double/tripple barreling more to push them off later. And if they are floating and checkraising you like crazy on the turn rejamming air or overjamming river more frequently will show massive profits.
Basically if u wanna achieve anything u have to get more creative at some point and willing to adapt to circumstances, tendencies and levels.
You cant take ur standard TAG style up to 10/20 and expecting it to work nowadays.

Higher levels arent necessary harder, but u have to get more creative. So it is harder for a typical TAG/2+2member to play his standard cbet then give up/never 4 bet bluff shoving to show a profit thats true.
Variance will be higher because of this obv. so i would def play 50 nl and start to open up more playing like 33/20 is fine i think and should show at first a small profit or small loss but after a bit u can handle it and play your hands profitable.
Sure at NL50 u could still continue your 18/15 TAG style and still show a massive profit 8-12 tabling and so on, but u will never manouver yourself in difficult or marginal spots where you have to get creative and by that developing as a player .
