I charted my last 100 sit&gos on 'stars with the following results:

1st: 21 (22.5*21= 472)
2nd: 15 (13.5*15= 202.5)
3rd: 12 (9*12= 108)
4th: 11
5th: 15
6th-9th: 27

472+202.5+108=782.5-550=232.5/550=.4227

48% in the money
42% roi

in my 6-9 place finishes, after a quick glance over stats, im usually calling a draw allin, walking into a set, or losing with an overpair, and a few coin flips. maybe i should take less risks early? i usually consider myself a tight player early only playing AK/AQ/PP, atleast for the first 2 rounds (when the blinds become 25/50). (with the exception of the 2+2 sng because i was aware that the players i was playing were tighter.)

i also had 26 4-5th place finishes. alot of these tend to come from lost coin flips, or from pushing an ace hard short handed and walking into a medium/high pair. i play especially aggressive when its 4 handed, but i do bring up my aggression level when there are 5 players. either i grab alot of chips or i lose a pot and fall into allin mode. standard casuality of play, or over aggression?

more 3rds than i would like. these usually occur after my stack takes a hit, and i eventually push and get called by a big stack. im going in with the favored hand, and dying to the 78% rule. not often busting on a huge favorite this late though. alot of A high/small pairs.

my headsup play is improving, although i feel my 1st:2nd ratio is fair, i still hope to pull more 1sts in the future.


moving to the 10+1 level.

my bankroll is about 500, i cashed out 100 leaving 400 online. this is plenty for a 10$ level, and after 100 tournaments showing better than a 40% roi i think im ready to move up to the next level.

i expect at the 10$ level there will be twice as many tight players but still huge amounts of errors, huge amounts of maniacs, and people who still wont release their losing hands. i dont expect the 10$ level to be 100% harder than the 5$. any comments?
