Re: To all of the downswing whiners around here
[ QUOTE ]
12% ROI equates to about 37% ITM. That's better than average and nothing to sneeze at. <shrug> maybe I just interpret "beating the game" as having a different meaning. FWIW, I realize as you move up to the higher levels, 45/36 ITM/ROI might be a pipe dream, but at only 12%, I'd still be looking for the leaks. [/ QUOTE ] I don't care how well you are doing, you should never stop looking for leaks. I doubt that multitabling 55's for a 36% ROI is doable though. |

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] I beat the 55s for 12% No offense, but I don't consider a 12% SNG ROI to be "beating" anything. Randomly, you should be ITM 30% of the time. To my mind, the threshhold of "beating" them is a 50% increase over the average, or 45% ITM. At 45% ITM spread evenly over the 3 payout spots (assuming a 10-handed table), your ROI should be 36%.

I know many who would dispute this point. |

I don't think you would make these statements if you did. Yes, you should still look for leaks at 12%, but let's not get totally unrealistic here. |

Re: To all of the downswing whiners around here
I play mainly 33's - 55's. Some 109's. Not claiming those were my numbers, either, but I dont think 40% ITM at $55 is unreasonable.

Re: To all of the downswing whiners around here
Does anyone ever play the $500s or $1000s? Seems like I usually see one person waiting at PS but never more.

Unfortunately, I'm shy of that (55s [party] and 60 Turbos[stars]), and I have a pretty small sample size. |

Re: To all of the downswing whiners around here
I guess it's just semantics. 12%, to me is certainly beating the game. If someone gets very close to the highest ROIs around, I'd say more like killing the game. That would be more Klingon too.
