SnGs - When do you move up?

[saminex@yahoo.com]

Personally i dont rely on sngs for money. its so much luck in the late guy when blinds become 1/3 of your stack...But if you do play sngs only my advice whould be when u make enough to lose 10 sngs move up ie 10+1 have at least 110 dollars and if u lose move back to 5+1.

I personally like the 2 table and 3 table SNG's because towards the end the blinds dont eat your stack and you can still use skill to win and not really on luck cause the blinds are so high.

I am gonna try to move up. I have a 70 percent pay rate with the 5 sng's. I think i should be able to at least still make money on the tens.

There are a lot of people in this thread that seem to think it gets to be luck late in the SNG. Are you guys only playing on Party? I used to exclusively play Party, and I could not agree more for that particular site; however, on Stars and Paradise it seems much more skill based toward the end. Sometimes on Stars, you can have 4 or even 5 people play through 2 or 3 rounds of blinds and everyone is still in the game with decent stacks. Usually somebody gets antsy and makes an early move (or call), and gets knocked out, which works out well for me.

party and paradise are both near crapshoots when its down to 3 people. THe blinds on paradise sometimes get to what like 5k?
