Hello cardschat forum readers,

I could help some advice about when to move up in stackes. I am now playing 10 times $5,50 sng (9 handed). And its going pretty smooth. But when do you move up in stackes? I am not a big fan of playing to different stackes at ones but what is yourre opinion about it.

So my main qeustion:
When do you move from 10 times $5,50 to 10 times $11 dollar sit and go's.

I would advise having at least a $300 bankroll before you move up to muti-tabling 10 tables at $10. I would personally wait until $400+. If you're playing 10 $5 and you're doing "smoothly", you could just stay down there and make a comfortable less risky profit.

Lol at least 300 is just crazy.. that are less then 3 times.(10 x 11= 110) x 3 = 330.. so 300 is kind of out the question. i think

I don't see why $300 is too much? You're playing the $10 stakes at 10 tables at one time. You're basically putting 33.33...% of your bankroll at the table at one time. All that without including the rake.

Eh sorry, I"m a bit confused. Do you mean that $300 is too little or to big?

You definitely need more than $300 to start playing $11 sng's. 50 buy-ins would be $500. If you are doing okay at the $5 level then that would be the time to start taking stabs at the $11's.

It also depends on where you are with your game. Have you studied sng strategy, read Collin Moshman's book, etc? If not I would spend some time on that before moving up.

I just moved up to the $11's about a month ago and love it. I did great the first half and have struggled the 2nd half but can't see myself ever moving back down. (fortunately I have the bankroll to go all the way up to $55's - I am just taking my time as I learn the game.)

Where do you play?

Good for you on being able to 10 table - I am up to 6 and don't think I could handle more than that.

You guys don't really think that money is going back to the league do you? :p

Nah - I was smart and when I won that $1600 in the 30k in June I left it online with the rest of my bankroll. Since then I have been able to make a withdrawal and still have a very nice bankroll left. :)

Haha yeah. That's what I hoped to hear. I think $300 is way to little, but I think that's like the super minimum you should have before you even dabble in the $10 ones. I would put my minimum at $500, but the $1000-$2000 would give you a real confortable spot to be in.

I could not play 10 tables at once, so I applaud you for your success. 4 tables is the most I stay comfortable with. Have hit 5 before a few times and my play gets real raggy. I would suggest a $500 min bankroll to play the $11s. I am more cautious myself and still play $1 level (with an occ $5 multi table tourney thrown in there) even with a bankroll over $1,000.

Much luck.

I disagree. You should have a MINIMUM of 100 BI's for tournament. To play they way you are describing is pretty much suicidal/a one way ticket to busto-land.

Hmm, I guess the first thing I would wnt to know what you think is good? If you are playing 10 tables at one time, how many are you cashing at and how many are you winning? I am cheap, so I usually start with 75-100on a site and play the larger $5 tournaments and the $10 SNG. I then usually cash out when I get to 1K and only leave 100-200 in the account. I usually start playing $25-$30 tournaments after I get over $200. I do only play $5 SNG after I get under $50.
