how long is your average SNG?

nickianthony · #1 06-20-2005, 12:03 PM

i'm using aleo's spreadsheet to keep track of my results, but i don't time my SNGs, so i'm not really sure what to put in the duration field to give a decent approximation of my $/hr. i'm looking for the average time actually spent playing the SNGs, so the times when you bust out after the first 5 minutes should bring the average down.

i'm playing the $22s, for what it's worth.

An average SNG takes approx 35-40 min. I dont kno how the new blind structure though will effect that.

My spreadsheet says 27 minutes. That's autoimported data from Poker Tracker.

I believe the 27 minutes is your average, not the table average. So if your average finish is 4.##, the actual average for a STT is more like 48 minutes.

yeah, but personal average is what decides $$/hr, assuming the OP plays continuously. If he plays in sets, then table average is probably a better number.

I'm also intersted how you collected this data?

nickianthony · #9 06-21-2005, 10:34 AM

yes, i play 4 tables continuously, so this is the number i'm looking for.

I just figured the OP wanted an average number of table-hours per tournament. If you're really into seeing how long the entire tournament lasts, you can make a cell in an SNG tab looking something like
=sumif($F$13:$F$1012,1,$G$3:$G$1012)/countif($F$13:$F$1012,1)

I average 42.4 minutes when I finish 1st or 2nd.
