not sure about moving up

[whooosh]

hi,

i'm 6-tabling the 6.50 turbos at pokerstars with a constant itm of about 42% and a roi of 25% over 312 games. because i'm rolled for higher limits ($700) i could (should?) move up.

but the next turbo sngs stars offer have a buy-in of $16 and i'm not sure how confident i can play there. does it make sense to play some regular $11 sngs to get used to the higher buy in? or to leave stars and move to a site that offer turbos at $10? you see: i'm afraid of a downswing at the higher limit because i didnt have one at the $6.50 (only a break even stretch over 100 sngs).

Mix some $16s in with your $6.50s. Exchange one $6.50 for a $16 and keep exchanging until you feel comfortable playing only $16s. If you go on a bad run at the $16s when you first start playing them, it won't be as noticable because you're not playing that many of them. If you do well at them, you'll end up having a smooth transition.

You should definitely move up, although your sample size is small it seems that you have the skills to beat the $6.50s and the $16s aren't that much harder. If you're feeling nervous about playing at the higher buyin, play a $16 every time you win a $6.50 and just mix it in with your other $6.50s. I guarantee you will probably forget which of your tourneys it is!

thanks for your advice. taking shots sounds good to me.

regarding the sample size: before playing at stars i played about 350 sngs at ongame skins with a roi about 15%. but the regular speed sngs are way to slow and the turbos are pure gambling.
