This is completely backwards. Playing two levels above your roll because you want to be able to afford to play one level above your roll is just pleading with variance to come in and scoop you into busto-land. Your most realistic option (assuming you don't like the idea of redepositing) is to play the $5s until you build up a roll for the $10s. If you can't be that patient, then play the $10s, but playing the $20s because you're too impatient to play the $5s is just crazy.

Yea, I read this and said to myself, this doesn't make any sense. You should be grinding the $5 until you are around $300 in order to play the $10's. The idea is to have 30 buy-ins to play a certain SNG and some may say that you need more. Also, I am sensing that your next comment might be that you think that you will play better against better opponents instead of the donks. Don't be that guy. If you can't beat the donks then you can't beat the better players. You will make more money off of donks than good players.
