I’ve been listening to the advice of many of the posters here and tightening my pre-flop standards. I’m wondering if I’ve gone overboard so I’m posting some numbers.
Total: Total Flops Seen (%)
Quality: Flops Seen when neither the SB nor BB (%)
Result: Place Finished/Total Entrants (in the money finishes are marked *)
Recent Multis on Stars (I don’t keep good stats on my UB tourneys since keeping stats there actually requires some effort, but I would guess my numbers are about the same):
Total .. Quality .... Result ....... Buyin
14% ..... 7% ....... 3/320* ..... $30+3
14% ..... 11% ..... 51/153 ..... $100+9
36% ..... 25% ..... 84/185 ..... $100+9
17% ..... 10% ..... 48/189 ..... $100+9
15% ..... 10% ..... 97/142 ..... $100+9
18% ..... 11% ..... 37/161 ..... $100+9
43% ..... 20% ..... 171/176 ..... $100+9
24% ..... 14% ..... 20/183 ..... $50+5
19% ..... 12% ..... 58/449 ..... $20+2
13% ..... 11% ..... 26/114 ..... $100+9
16% ..... 8% ....... 5/394* ..... $20+2
I also looked at my SnG’s where I finished sixth or better (I play the two-table sng’s with buyins $10, $20, and $30). My numbers there were a little higher: 26% total flops and 14% quality flops on average. I think this is due to the less aggressive preflop play in the early stages of sng’s relative to the play in multi’s, but I could be wrong. Any comments on expected differences in % flops seen between sng’s and multi’s appreciated…
Back to the multis, it’s easy to see that I’m probably overmatched in 100+9 tourneys, so I’ve decided to stick to the 20 and 30 buyins with an occasional 50 for now (plus a few satellites to the big buyins just for kicks).
In the meantime, am I seeing too few flops to give myself a chance or are these numbers about right? I’m just curious as to what % the better players see.
Thanks in advance to all who take the time to respond!
