Re: When do I know if I\'m ready to increase play levels?
This may or may not answer the question, but here's what I'm doing. I'm playing in the 2-table 5+.50 SnGs at Poker Stars. When I've made enough money for 30 buy ins at the 10+1 level, I'll move up. It's a slow process, but will help me gain experience at the lower levels before moving up.
Analyze your play. WHY are you finishing 4th? Is it because you're too tight when people start busting out and you're resigned to moving all in on the bubble? Or is it because you build a good chip lead and squander it away on misguided blind steals you can't get away from when played back at? (This would be me).
I enjoy the 2-table game more because there's a progression from full table to shorthanded table back to full table and to shorthanded table again if you last that long. Very good experience for me.
