nice post BL. I have played like shit this month and decided to move down from $1/2 to $0.5/1 to work on my postflop game. I think you are absolutely correct in this regard, TAG preflop and active, contesting every pot, postflop. The only thing I would add is that those folks that are used to making withdraws from their poker account on a monthly schedule should be playing with a 50 buyin minimun.
Part of my problem this month was that I was for a few months I have been maintaining a 30-40 buyin BR. With that little BR coverage I just didn't feel comfortable playing the style I knew I should at $1/2. I couldn't help but be results orientated on every hand. So I made a larger than normal withdraw today (the best cure for when you are feeling bad about your game) and won't move back up to $1/2 until I get back to a 50 buyin BR.
I guess this is a long way of saying that I think BR management the foundation that allows you to play correctly.
