Hi,

i play sit and go turbo 9 players ( 1 table ) on pokerstars, i beat easy the 0,50$ games..i did a roi 22% in 454 games , so i moved up to 1,50$, i supposed there will be not difference in the game level but i haven't the results which i expected.
After 700 games i have a very low roi ( 3%), i know its not a big a sample so im not sure if could be the variance or i have a very big leaks

That's tough to say without knowing more about your play. Don't forget you haven't a great sample on the 50c games ether, but I expect there are more tight regs on $1,50 games than in the 50c games.

Yes you are right there are more regs , 0,50$ Was more soft sometimes i get itm without playing 1 hand lol.
Which is a good sample to start making conclusions about my game ? 1500 ?

Well in any way just don't worry about it. Keep playing and learning. Results will get better. Some guys go with the 10h a week learning plus playing and review rule. Start having some sessions on 50c again with 2 tables. Watch Collins vids backwards in chronical order.

Yes man, that’s it , keep playing and learning , yesterday in just 30 sit and go i won the 30 buy-in i have lost in the last 4 days. The variance is just incredible.
Im tabling 14x pretty well right now, im plaing 9 players sit and go format , they dont need a lot of post flop play exept for the early blinds and the final hu sometimes.

The difference is that 50c has the old structure - no ante from the start and you should play extremely tight.
Not the case with 1.50. Maybe you don't play loose and aggro enough preflop from the start?

Yes i know, i try to wide my open raise specially from lates positions like collin explains in some videos however my style is pretty tight and i was more confortable with the old structure. Today i have another positive session. I think it was a lot of bad variance that killed down my roi. Probably at 1000 or 1500 sng i will have an idea about my game level at this stake.
