Someone once (I forgot who) gave a great tip: due to the payout structure (and I am assuming UB and Party are the same) be willing to give up second places to get more first places.

I believe it was Bozeman...and I've really used that tip to my advantage, in that it really got me thinking about how I play once I get to 4th and 3rd place. I still advocate playing tightly on the bubble, but once you get into the money, you really need to try to position yourself to win the thing, and get more aggressive.

I would echo the sentiments that you can jump, provided you have the bankroll (20 - 25 buyins or 220 - 275 bucks) to make the jump. It is not unlikely to have a dry spell of 10-15 tournaments out of the money, even when playing reasonably well. Just make sure you can weather that run.
