I've been playing $50s, doing very well over the past 100 games or so (winning 66%). Last night, I went on a total cardrack heater, winning 10 in a row, and also taking first in the one $50 STT I played, which blew my bankroll through the area where I had decided I was going to step up to $80s, and into my comfort zone for $100s.

Is it a bad idea to skip a level? Should I be wanting to play a certain number of games at the $80s before stepping up again? Is there even going to be any significant difference in play between $80 and $100?

A more general question about level difficulties. For me, there was a *huge* jump in how well I needed to play to be a winner at the $30s as compared to the $20s. I had to make fundamental changes to my game in order to be a winner at the $30s. (And those changes made me an even bigger winner at the $20s, where I was already fairly profitable with a 60%-ish winrate)

Am I going to run into a similar roadblock as I keep moving up, where I'm going to have to make fundamental changes, or is the play fairly similar past a certain point?
