What is a decent ROI% ?

So if you were to play say 1 or 2 sng's 5 times a week, say 30 in a month you could go 2 years losing but still be a winning player at that level!

errrrrrrrrrrrr    wot

over 10 years you would win, but over a whole 2 year period you could lose!

Yes you're right there...........if you won $1,000,000 and then lost $999,999 youl'd still be a winner!

A friend of mine, some might know him from VC or Boards.ie (HectorJelly) played a stupid amount of these over the course of a few months and his stats were quite amazing, now he is quite some player and if he had those swings the average players would be crazy. Like byron said 500 run loss is not unlikely!

Oddly i have just finished reading his blog, haven't looked at in a long long time but i have always enjoyed it.
I have also played many, many sng's with him in the past and agree he knows his stuff, small world huh?

I played SNGs almost exclusively between July and October of this year logging several thousands.  If you use Party or Stars, there is a program called SNG Tracker which logs all your SNGs and makes all sorts of nifty graphs.

I played 8-10 at a time at the $33 and $55 level.  I don't remember the results for each level, but the cumulative was something like 38% ITM, 18% ROI.  I have a hyper aggressive bubble strategy so I won like 15% of all games, but actually had more 4ths than 3rds...i still think the math works out in my favor.

Best of all, each SNG averages only 34 minutes for me, so your hourly rate can really become something pretty decent.

2 plus 2 go into this with all sorts of figures and stats makes interesting reading if u dont know what you should be comparing your game to . the amount of games you play at one time and the level you play at and what sites
