Curious why it matters what game I consider my main game to be important. I'll typically sit where I think my win rate will be best. If there's a soft 2/5 I'm there. If the 2/5 seat is at a strong table and there's a fishy 1/3 I would sit there instead. I have been obliterating 1/2 for the last 6 months as well and I'm kind of curious how long I can continue to post insane win rates at 1/2 against much easier Villains.
Its not unusual for players at 5/10 to willfully intimidate lower-stakes players, especially if they are playing short in a deep-stacked game.
Its a much smaller gap from 2/5 to 5/10, because you see much more deep stack play in 2/5.
If you still think of yourself as a 1/2 player i think that is a bad mentality to bring into 5/10 or higher.
65/hr winrate is fantastic, though less important than your overall mental awareness of how well you are playing and skill differentials vs other players. Being able to review a session and understand what hands you made a mistake is super important, as is recognizing the best decisions you made in challenging/marginal spots.
