Ok guys, my first post. I just recently got into online poker. 2 weeks ago deposited $50. Since then I have played in 100, 10+1 STTs.

My current ROI, using the spreadsheet thing posted on here, is 66.9%, and my ITM is 56.4%.

1st=16.4%
2nd=21.8%
3rd=18%

Bankroll has climed to over 1k mostly from these 10+1 STTs.

This cannot possibly continue can it? Does party poker have some sort of beginner's luck they squeeze into the random number generator?

Nope. Enjoy it while it lasts.

This is almost surely a heater...

Keep working on your game. From these stats you can't deduce almost anything about your actual skill in these games.

this one time I played 12 tournaments in one day and placed 1st in 5, 2nd in one and OTM in the others.

p.s. luck / updward variance is nice. figure out how you're getting so lucky.

After how many T's will one know more accurate figures...

500?

500 is the brink of statisitcal significance.
