Re: Risk of Ruin

what I meant to suggest was that one always play at a constant RoR. If my bankroll/skill improves/degrades, I move up/down, so my RoR is still the same.

RoR is constant over all games. Now at what...

Re: SnG Challenge

It wsnt meant as any kind of advise. I said in my earlier post that as long as you play 8 tables the same as you wud one table, the downswings should be the same.

Re: Finally figured out AK in early rounds....

i did not completely follow how you did the math, but are you talking in terms of Chip Equity.

Re: SnG Challenge

Agreed. My experience says that playing fewer tables results in lesser down swings. Its likely that the sample size I have will not convince a true statistician.
