I am just curious as to what people who have recently moved up to $33 from $22 on Party think of the transition. I am a player who had a very high ROI in $20+2 but am just barely better than even in my first 25 or so $30+3. I know it is a small sample, but I definitely notice that the play is significantly better in the $30+3.

Any comments on this?

I went break-even for my first 150 $33s. Things will get better if you don't suck.

if you don't, there are ton of good players and it is not uncommon to find a SNG where 8 or 9 of the 10 people are quite good.

Since I'm generally being a punk, I'm going to add one of my favorite quotes to this thread. It's not directed at the OP, but just to some unspecified portion of this thread.

What's that smell in this thread? Didn't you notice it? Didn't you notice the powerful and obnoxious odor of mendacity in this thread?

It's easy to forget, but for every player who has a 4 to 1 1st place to 10th place ratio, there is a guy who has a 4 to 1 10th to 1st. Why they don't move down to the $5 tourneys to get better, I have no idea.

I have paid my bills, don't need a cashout for a while so I am at the 22s and will soon by at the 33s and then 55s as my bankroll should begin to grow finally.

I am going out on a limb and predicting I win the leaderboard on Party in January. I plan on playing 4000 20's. I am going to 8 tabe 14 hours a day all 31 days. I have being using the last few weeks as training. I will post my handle on the 31 and willing to make any side bets with anyone who wants to compete.

I am new to 2+2 and have learned a lot. I just started playing 22's on my laptop. Started with 3 tables and now 9 tabling with the new beta. I have played 357 the last few days and my ROI is 20.45 so far with ITM 38.66 and 123 look like 49 50 39. My question is if i start 10 tabling on 2 monitors and play all day could I play 4000 in one month? I know 357 is not enough, but I have already had a few crazy streaks, good and bad. It just seems to good to be true the money that can be made at these SNG's, is it?

4k a month is definitely possible 8-tabling but it'd be challenging. i wouldn't try to play 4k without working up to it gradually. try to play 2k in a month, see how that goes.

I almost hate to, but...FYP. Are you kidding me? Even 8-tabling continuously, say you get in 11/hour (I've only ever played in sets, is this close to accurate?). That still comes out to over 12 hours of poker per day, every day (no breaks on weekends). As much as I do enjoy playing poker, I think I'd rather clean up human feces with my bare hands than do this.
