Default LC: $22s to $33s or $55s?

I've been playing the $22s in party for some time, played about 1500 and have a ROI of 15%. I know, sample size not big enough, but i have to go to college so i cant play 4h a day like i used to, so i need to move up in order to win the same $$$ playing less hours.

I know i have some leaks, especially HU, but i seem to fix them better when i move up. Its kinda hard to explain, but right now i feel confortable with a 15% ROI, so i dont feel so rushed to fix those leaks. If i move up, i will have to fix those, so i will work harder.

The thing is, the 33s are WAY less crowded than the 22s and 55s, and moving there wouldnt help me $/h very much. And whats the skill difference between 22 -> 33 -> 55? So should i go straight to the 55s, or i would get spanked there? Any other advice? Hire a coach, maybe?

Moving up to make the same amount in less hours is a bad ida. Move up because you are confident in your game and your bankroll can sustain a downswing. Also, I highly doubt the 55s are softer than the 33s.

I really only have a significant sample size at one buy-in, and that is the $55s. However, based on my general observations the $33 are softer than the the $55s. Not by a huge margin. But, I think anyone leaving the $22s would be smart to make a brief appearance at the $33s.

I know the 33s are softer, i said less crowded in a "less games going on, harder to multitable" way. Also, anyone that played 22s and 33s recently can comment on the skill difference?

and im waaay overolled, even for 55s. And im confident in my game and want to move up, i just wanted to know if i could skip the 33s (or stay there briefly) or if i should play 1k-2k to see where i stand.

The 33's are just like the 22's except that the donks seem to get tighter as the blinds get higher. The average player is tighter at all stages and doesn't pay you off as much.

Looks like there are more $33s running right now than $55s?

Yeah I don't know wtf OP was talking about there. Each successive level fills slower than the previous level and faster than the next level. With the exception of the 77s which fill slower than bother the 55s and the 109s
