This makes me feel not so bad. I just started on the SNGS. Here are my $10+1 results:

360 Tourn.
ROI 4.8%
ITM 38.89%

Finish Distribution:
1 - 7.78%
2 - 14.17%
3 - 16.94%
4 - 14.72%
5 - 13.61%
6 - 11.67%
7 - 10.56%
8 - 5.28%
9 - 2.50%
10 - 2.78%

I made a good comeback, I was actually down $150 after the first 150 sngs and close to 30% ITM. The next 200, I've been closer to 42% ITM.

I recommend that you play pocket pairs cheaply early on, and make sure you get ITM when you're on the bubble. Like if you're in the top 4, and 1 guy has a similar chipcount to you, concentrate on him getting out first at all costs. I sometimes will play supertight if it looks like it improves my ITM chance. You can definately improve your ITM a few percent at least.

Oh yeah, not that I'm an expert or anything. Obviously, my stats aren't that great as well, but at least we're making money.

They left with most of my ROI. I'm not sure how I screwed that up so bad. I feel like most of my heads up play comes down to a coinflip. Maybe I should be doing something stronger?

Connect the dots.

Yeah, I'm loving the fact there isn't a big minus sign in front of my numbers. 9 of my last 10 tourneys were OOTM, which kind of kicked my numbers in the nuts. also, my plethora of 3rd place finishes are mostly due to losing with the best hand all-in, and running into monsters. hitting the other side of variance will be fun.

Yeah, you think I should play more agressively with 4-5 left so I don't go ITM with such a small stack? I'm getting that feeling too. I need to work on my shorthanded play as well though.

I play typical 2+2 on the bubble. No folding ITM for me.

Maybe you don't wanna play weak like me and sneak in the money with a short stack, but you can do better than 36% ITM.

Could be a mix of not gaining enough chips on the bubble and not playing correct while in the money. But you definately need to fix it because if you don't increase the number of 1st you will never be able to increase your ROI to good numbers. A first is worth so much money that you have to give yourself the chance to win it.

Of course there are odd times where you have no option but to try to limp into 3rd but that is not the ordinary.
