Reached $400 today. Moving up to NL20 tommorow or maybe even later today.

I realized that at these tables... My worst enemy and toughest opponent is - ME.

Things don't go perfectly for a while and I'll suddenly attribute that to my opponents being uber players. I start changing styles, experimenting when in fact all I'm fighting against is variance. And the way to fight variance isn't to change your style, it's to stick to doing what you know is best.
It can be tough to realize whether it really is only variance tho...

Anyway, once I fixed the mess in my head, and fixed the 'fear of success' of actually moving up, I started cruising steadily, just allowing the money to come to me.

Let's see how NL20 works out, I'm excited about it!

Cheers!

I'm far from being able to reason anything.

I found players at NL10 being more likely to fold to Cbet than those at NL20.

I guess the bigger percentage of pots won, the bigger the rake. If you play many pots, win many small ones, your rake will be bigger than if you play less hands and win a couple of big ones. my opinion.
