I tried this. I ended up with a -30% ROI over 50 tournaments and concluded that your idea sucks.

And kyros post was any better? Seriously just take a shot, as citanul said to me awhile ago, what's the worst that could happen?

***sigh***

The correct answer to this post is to just do one of two thinigs.

1) Follow bankroll management guidelines
2) Set aside an amount of money you're willing to lose at the higher level. If you run out, you move down.

Anyhow, this concept, thought process is all part of bankroll management. If you don't understand bankroll management yet, my opinion is that you might have some pain in the future, unless you're a good weak tightie with your money (like me [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]).

You will notice very little difference between the 109's and the 55's.

I play both - table selection is a little tougher at the 109's, since there is about half the amount of games running

My ROI at the 109's is about 2/3rds what it is at the 55's

more $$$ hour - but more variance - this is expected

Default multitabling...

Didn't feel like starting a new topic. If all that worried me was whether the ROI drop between the 55s and 109s would be small enough to make it worthwhile for me, then I'd just take a shot at them.

What concerns me more is how well you can effectively multitable them. With the ROI drop I expect, I feel it'll only be wortwhile if I can 12table there like I do the 55s. If 10tabling them is more realistic, the move up wouldn't be worthwhile.

I'm expecting the ROI drop will be enough that I make roughly the same per sng at the $109s as $55s, and only when you add rakeback is it more profitable. I dunno, maybe I'm overestimating the ROI drop, probally not though.

Why would this be an issue? Maybe you'd want to reduce the number of tables at first, but if you can X-table the 55s and make good decisions, you can X-table the 109s and make good decisions.

In other words, you'll have less of an edge (for example, because you'll get your good hands paid off less often), but the actual decisions themselves will be virtually identical.

my roi is about half in the 109s what it is in the 55s, and thats over 6k on each. however.. its been a while since ive played hardcore, and in the last couple days ive been hittin the 109s a bit and they seem relatively softer than i remember.. you wont notice a big difference between the levels, but trust me, its there, subtlely. holla
