Default Why move up slowly

A standard question is: When should I move up in limits?

Answer: If your a winning player at one limit with an ROI that confirms that. Rule of thumb is 20% for the lower limits.

The big mistake alot players make is move up to quickly if they have a winning streak at the start because they think they are so good because of their ROI of 30%. Then they move up. I see so many players at sharkscope with only hundreds of tourneys playing 109 or higher. May be a couple of them are former party players (sharkscope is only for Stars)who dont like the new SNG-format. But I think most players are not. Needless to say that most of them are losing players.

Over the first 100 SNG of my new 1000 tourney series I had an ROI of 41%. I know that this is ridiculous high (for me, for 2p2 member standard [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]) and that I have a winning streak
(I win most of my coinflips). Do I move up? No because I know that my ROI at the 16$ turbos is less than 20% (over 1700 tourneys). OK thats also a bankroll question. My bankroll is most of the time too low to play 27$ turbos.

In my opinion this mistake is the main for going busto at the tourneys.
