Poker: Raising the roof

So I took the plunge today and sat down at $1/$2 and ended up +21/BB. I didn't find the game too much tougher than $.50/$1 but with only one 45 minute session under my belt I'm not going to make too many assumptions right now. I found a good game and was sad to leave it but duty called.

I'm still struggling with $.50/$1. Last night was a bad night finishing -20/BB for the session on UB. The game was tough and while at one point I was +15/BB, there were a few hands where I suspected I was beat on the turn but couldn't let go. The lesson learned here is to tighten up just a little because in review of my play, I had played some pretty questionable hands and to pay a little more attention to how others are playing/betting because I missed some pretty obvious signals to get out based on the things I had seen those players play in the past.

So last night I was the fish, and this morning I was shark :)
