I finished another block of 100 tournies today for a total of 400. Here are my results. These results are 2 tabling.

ROI - 100 blocks:
1st: 42%
2nd: 55%
3rd: -7%
4th: 15%
Avg Total: 26%

Finish breakdown:
1st: 63/400 = 16%
2nd: 45/400 = 11%
3rd: 53/400 = 13%
4th: 42/400 = 11%
ITM: 40%

I got slammed over an 180 game period, basically breaking even. It was very disheartening and I took 2, one month breaks during that stretch. I played well, everything went against me. I was due for some bad luck due to my good luck earlier.

I tried 3 tabling, but it was too much for me. I broke even over 100 tournies, which are not included in my results.

I tried 99 tournies at the $109 level and had a 5% ROI. I found them to be significantly harder. I wouldn't recondmend them unless you are very good.

I was aiming for a long term ROI of 36%, but I think this is unrealilistic now. I'm aiming for 25% now. I'd love to see results from any 50+5 players who have 300+ tournies.

I plan to stick to 2 tabling the 50's for a while. The 109's are much harder and the swings are greater. I'm not even sure I could beat them for half of my 50 ROI to make them worth while. Although I am a lot better now. I played the 109's after playing 200 of the 50's. I've learned a ton in the last 200 50's even though I had bad luck.

You should include your break-even stretches too because those affect your ROI.

If the break even stretch is the same category as the other games, then by all means they should be included. However, you missed a very important point here. The 100 game break even stretch was with me 3 tabling. I usually 2 table and it greatly affected my play. I didn't have enough time to make good reads and there were too many players for me to remember. Therefore, the results are not relevent to my 2 table stats. It would be stupid for me to try to inflate my results by intentially leaving out unfavorable results.

I guess nobody is interested in more significant results. I have 400 tournies here. I've seen posts that have less than 100 tournies played that get more replies...

I'm very interested. I have a buddy that 4 tables the $50s and just hit 300. he has a 25% ROI. hope that helps... (probably doesn't)

Grats, you have a 25% ROI at 50+5s. What do you want people to say?

Being able to 4 table the 50's for a 25% ROI is good. It helps a little. Any significant results are helpful.

lmao, anything. Obviously you play the 50's as I do. How about posing your results? I'd love to see them.

Maybe my 25% ROI is great. Maybe it blows for 2 tabling, I dunno. I'm trying to get perspective here.

The search function blows and I can't find any good info. The info I do find is contridictary. Plus, actual results helps me compare a lot more.

My time is valuable to me. I don't want to waste it if nobody is interested. Simple as that. That's why I commented on the lack of responses.
