My ROI has dropped bad

Hey guys,

About two months ago i withdrew all my money from my poker sites and left $50 in them all and decided to start playing from the bottom. I normally only ever played $10 sit n go and wanted to challenge myself with the $50 and playing the $5 sit n goes until I could build each account up to $250 were i would level up. Problem is when I was playing the $10 tables I was 45% ITM placing normally 2nd and 1st but now I am only scraping ITM with 30% after 50 sng's. I am not over the moon about this and am wondering if i'm struggling now should I deposit more money to cover my Bankroll management and go back to $10 tables or stick with it for the experience and challenge. I am not changing my strategies for this level, my percentages of playing and raising are the same and I have controlled myself from tilt after bad beats from bad players as I am conscientious enough to know they'll be paying me off more often than not. Maybe having a bad run. Any thoughts are appreciated, as I'm looking at poker to pay for my kids college in the future, lol.

Interesting point, I'll try to incorporate that into my game. Knob Jockey.

I was simply stating, post your stats or PT so I can see what your going through because I don't read books so I'm not going to read your thread. Thank you.

lol what's a knob jockey?

anyways, for beating the higher stakes SNGs you need pretty sick skills and you'll play mostly for rakeback. Also most of the SNG skills cant be transferred to other forms of poker, so if you move to cash games you pretty much start from scratch.
