View Full Version : Placing Percentages

12-06-2005, 04:00 AM
For all you good, experienced players out there, what's your placing distribution? Mine is as follows:

1st: 15.3%
2nd: 11.8%
3rd: 13.3%
4th: 9.4%
5th: 13.7%
6th: 11.3%
7th: 7.8%
8th: 5.9%
9th: 5.9%
10th: 4.7%

Is this a healthy distribution? does the reletively low % of 4ths mean I'm playing too passively on the bubble and playing to cash rather than playing to win? What do you guys think?

looks good, though the absence of a sample size is bothersome

if this is below 500 then it means very little

We don't even know what level of SNGs you're playing.

whoops, my bad...this is at the $10+1 level, and it is over 800 sng's

Distribution looks fine. ROI is good. As long as you keep up the firsts you do good. I'd consider moving up.

I've tried moving up 3 times, each time resulting in a 10-20 buy-in downswing over 30-50 tournaments. I also have been cashing out to use the $$, so I need to grow my bankroll properly first.

Hi there, splashpot! I am curious. What information would you say is useful? Thank you, and have a great night!

Splashpot, you are not nearly good enough to get away with being an a.sshole. So, cut it out.
