Default Re: 101 PokerStars SNGs Progress ($10+1)

I think you can safely move up. Your sample size isn't large enough to give you a correct idea of your real ROI, but 100 games is enough to know if you are beating the $11 level, IMHO.

Give the $22s a shot, and just be willing to move back down if it isn't working out.

I think the better players are usually striving to get into bigger games, and this can often involve 'taking a shot', or even moving up without any hard long term data to know if they can win at that limit or even if their bankroll is a bit short.

This may seem to contradict the usual advice you might find on this forum - make sure you have a deep bankroll, and put in a lot of hours to know where your win rate is at, etc. However, the good players who take these chances are always willing to Immediately move down if it doesn't appear favorable (and that could mean after 1 session, though with SNGs you will probably want to play at least 15-20 at the higher level).

Then again, maybe it is best to play it safe. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]
