I have started to play the 5.25's on poker stars regular speeds. I was playing micro 6max before. Played 9 tourneys today and won 66% of them so far. I am over rolled for the 5 dollar level but cant afford to replace this roll if i lose it. How many games should you play before you decide to move up? is the 10 dollar level any different? people in these sitngos btw arent very good sports. I had someone call me a stupid american donk lol. in cash games nobody rarely typed anything in the chat box. these heads up games seem pretty proftable so far made more money today alone than i was in a week playin micro cash games.
Be careful not to over value your results. Winning 66% of your games is good, but over small samples such as 9 games your results should mean very little (if they are good or bad) in your decision to move up or down because of skill (bankroll obviously becomes a factor for moving down no matter how much you lose.... if your bankroll is reduced to a certain level you move down).I would suggest playing some more games and if you continue to win, take a shot at the $10 level that you are comfortable losing if things don't go too well. You don't need to put your entire roll at risk in taking a shot, you can take a 3-4 buyin shot, meaning if you lose 3 or 4 buyins you move back down to the $5 level, no matter how you lost those 3-4 buyins.The $10 level should be virtually identical to the $5 level.
