i really don't feel like i'm playing scared. i don't really intend to skip 50nl, but I figured I'd start taking shots at it when i hit ~25 buyins for it, well right now i've got about 35 but every shot i've taken has ended with me dropping a few buyins. i don't feel like the game is different, but the little setbacks i get every time i take a shot are trying my patience.
also i finally figured out the best way to play 87s:
