so i started out on the nevada wsop site and managed to turn $10 into 1k from grinding .05/.10 and $6 deepstack mtts. im to the point that i think i could move up. but the site rarely has 10/20 and .25/.50 is just barely what im rolled for and idk if thats a good idea. my tournament results are better than my cash result but both are positive. wjats the best thing to do? step up the stakes in the mtts?

play in a few higher spots that look good to you to get a feel for it and if comfortable go for it.

Depends on how much you have in your life roll because it's not very smart to have big chunks of your net worth in online poker. If you're doing well at a job and have lots of money in the bank then I say go for it. Me? I'd cash out 80% and play with 20%.

if you know you are a winning player then its plenty as long as the bankroll isnt your life one. meaning you can still make money outside poker and replenish it.

Take a 3 BI shot at 25/50. Worst case scenario, you lose it and can still make it back in lower stakes. Rinse and repeat
