Default Lucky or skilled or not that impressive...and where to from here?

Joined Stars three weeks ago after learning about the plethora of MTT's from this forum...

Sharkscope Stats:

Games Played: 58
Avg Profit: $13
Avg Stake: $7
Avg ROI: 93%
Total Profit: $731

In the money about 33% of the time according to officialpokerstats.com

Is this anything special, or did I just happen into a nice run?

Still haven't won a big tournament on Stars. I learned how to play MTT's through freerolls on a couple different sites, honed my strategy from the stellar advice on this site....and it seems to be working well taking my game to these lower stake Stars games.

Any comments/advice on how to start making serious money from here? Step up to $10/$20's instead of $5/$10's?

I'm proud to have pulled this off from a single $50 deposit, but I know how swings can happen and that I could end up with $0.12 if I don't correctly manage what I've got now.

I'd say move up to 20s as well, but have a drop down point. Ie: if your bankroll goes below x$ move back down to 10s.

Oh, jesus, that's what I needed to hear. My recent success was blinding me, putting me in the horrible rookie habit of playing larger stakes to compensate when I was on a little losing streak the last couple days. Now I have a plan.

Thanks
