What Kind Of ROI Should One Expect?

[PokerProdigy]

I am trying to decide whether it is worthwhile to become a fairly good NL Holdem single table tournament player. I would be playing about 3-4 SnG's at a time at the $10/1 or $20/2 level.

What kind of ROI should one expect at these levels? What are some of you players ROI? And what level/buy-in is this at?

P.S. Also are the other games (stud, limit holdem, omaha, or high-low) very profitable to play at the single table tournaments at these levels/buy-ins?

I think any positive ROI is good. If you have 10%+ at $11s and $22s it is a good start and it will go up when you fix leaks in your game.

Now if you look at the ROI posted on these forums you might get the idea that you suck if you don't have a 30% ROI. That is for the simple reason that people for the most part only post their ROI when they feel proud about them.

It's true and we can regret it.
I'm still waiting for some courageous guy to post his ROI on his last 2000 games ...

[jgunnip]

At least he's figured out how to omit that little spead next to his threads.

[freemoney]

can people please stop referring to one of the worst posts which has zero facts and just arbitrary claims.

You should expect a -9% ROI.

You should hope for a 0% ROI.

You should aim for something > 0%

You could be like Yugo and not keep track of your ROI. Then, maybe it won't even exist.

[beeyjay]

i dont think anybody has a positive roi in sngs if they play more than 2 tables. there is just too much going on to concentrate on more than that. if i was you i would play 1 and MAYBE 2 tables if you want any chance of having a positive roi.

Nah, it always exists as a continuous probability distribution across the entire range between -100% and 355%. It only collapses to a single value when someone tries to measure it.
