I don't get it. WTF could I possibly doing so wrong?

It's not a down streak. It's not bad beats. It's a statistical problem. The following numbers are close. Not exact. But close.

Last ~5000 $20/$30 tournaments, ROI ~= 24%

Last ~3000 $50 tournaments, ROI ~=6%

And those last 2000 on the $50s have been brutal.

Now, can this big a range be variance?

Highly unlikely.

Perhaps you are not properly adjusting for 1k chips.

i think that has a large impact on your results. more than likely, yer playing yer standard uber tight early game and pushbot late game. it doesnt work NEARLY as well as in the 800 chip games. try opening up a teeny bit early game. i think you will like the results. holla

open up your range more in late position, especially in level 2-3.

May I ask why? I'm not at the 55s yet, but I'm guessing that you can pick up the blinds more often in unopened pots, or is there another reason?

[Eihli]

Anything over 17% ROI in the 30's is highly unlikely.

The real reason is that with 1000 chips you are getting more implied odds which means it's correct to be playing more hands in the early levels. Not lots more but some.
