Are Party 100s actualy tougher than we think ?
I only ask this because I have just read another post by a respected poster about hitting their first major losing streak after moving up to the 100s.
I didnt realy know what it was to take a beating till I moved upto the 1OOs, having worked my way up the SNG ladder from 10s over a year and half. Im not sure if the 100s are much tougher, its just that I keep reading these horror stories, and cant help thinking if there is some causal factor. |

Not really. There's a jump from 50 to 100, but the significant jump is from 100 to 200. I have a theory on this I'll expand on later.

Have you made both of these jumps before you make this comment? The jump between the 50s and the 100s is way bigger then any other jump. In fact the 200s might just be easier then the 100s they aren't all that much harder in any case.

I've moved up similarly, from the $5 tourneys to the $50s and now dabbling in the $100s. They are tougher IMO, but - Knock on wood -I've been doing ok in them. Maybe I've just been lucky with the tables I've been on.

I play in the 100s a lot. The games are much tighter than the lower limits in my opinion. Often times towards level 5 and 6, there are 5+ players left, which turns it into a crapshoot.

Re: Are Party 100s actualy tougher than we think ?
I don't know, because I can't play enough of them to find out. After a month of rebuilding my bankroll from my last attempt at moving up, I finaly got enough to try again. I played 4 $109's last night and finished OOTM all 4. That's the third time in a row I've tried to move up, and gone either 0 for 4 or 0 for 8.
My ITM/ROI numbers are good enough at the 55's for me to be inclined to think that I just keep getting unlucky. What would be helpful is if somebody could respond to this thread with results from 500+ SNGs at both the 55's and 109's, so I can see an example of the magnitude of difference between the two.

I've played 1000+ 55s and 200+ 109s. My long-term ROI in the 55s is about 35%. My ROI in the $109s is 2%. YMMV.

Are you serious? I haven't heard anything like that before... I need to rethink my whole plan if that's the case.
