hey.i have made 12% ROI over 268 games on 5,2$ turbo (many part of it 14% and never under 8% not evena fter 1 session)

i have 609$ in my bankroll .. im seriously considering to move up to 10,4$

but im afraid to lose money like 100$ ......150 and need to drop

so im waiting to reach 850$ before i move to 10,4$ dons

do you, experienced don players, consider 10,4 and 5,2 EXACTLY the same level?

when to know if im ready to move?

This is going to be locked, threads about moving up aren't allowed.

268 games is no where near enough to tell you anything. I've run absolutely horrible over 300 games and amazing over 300 games, it's not indicative of anything. I can say though that if you're afraid of losing $100 (aka 10 BIs at the $10s) then you definitely should not be trying to move up.

And saying that you've never run under 8% ROI in one session really leads me to believe that you're either lying or just running hot. All players have losing sessions

i have 609$ in my bankroll .. im seriously considering to move up to 10,4$ (OK)

but im afraid to lose money (then poker is probably not the game for you) like 100$ ......150 and need to drop (because dropping a level when necessary is part of any disciplined brm strategy)

so im waiting to reach 850$ before i move to 10,4$ dons

do you, experienced don players, consider 10,4 and 5,2 EXACTLY the same level? (no, the 10s have better players than 5s)

when to know if im ready to move? (if you have to ask then you probably aren't ready)

EDIT: In fact, have you even looked at the STTF FAQ?? It doesn't look like it. You've got over 50 posts, it really is about time you read them, don't you think?

5s super easy 10s/20s pretty much identical just a few more regs in 20s. And lol at not even moving to 10s or taking shots at them with 50+bi's. If you 12 table at the mo then play 6x 5s and 6x 10s or something.

I got $500 and am 8tabling 20s with 8 10s running at same time, if i drop like 300 i'll drop down.

Being aggressive yet strict is best way to move up. Take shots.
