I was a ring player and doing ok. I started with $50 and ran it up to $1200 in 2 months playing mostly $25NL at Eurobet w/rakeback. I really wasn't making much in rakeback but I still have it just in case. I have been stuck with the same BR for 3 weeks so I thought I would try something different. I came to the SnG section of 2plus2 and thought I would give SnG's a try. I have been playing the $11 for a week 2 tabling for now which I know isn't much and have made only about $200. I have played in about 45 $11 Sng's with a 28% ROI (Don't know if this is good or bad) and ITM of about 45%. I do not feel that I am crushing or even really beating the $11 games yet but I have a few questions. Here they go:

1. How many SnG's do you average a week?
2. What level do you play?
3. How much do you make a week on average?
4. What is your ROI and what?
5. When do you move up? When your ROI is high enough? When your bankroll supports it?
6. How many tables do you play?

Also any suggestions and comments are appreciated. I am not trying to rush anything. I am just trying to find out if SnG's are for me. I have more fun playing SnG's but I also want it to be profitable. Thanks.

for the $33 SNGs and below 24-29% is great, especially when playing many at a time. Move when you are ready.


bear in mind 500+ tournaments will give you a good idea if you are ready, not < 50.

Also this thread comes up often, so do a search and you'll find comprehensive reponses

Thanks for replying. I am going to slowly start adding more tables until I reach 4 since my laptop really can't support anymore. Then play up to 500 SnG's and see where I stand. My BR should support to move up a level if I continue to get better.

Thanks! I was worried about clicking it at first and thought it would direct me to the search page.
