Default Re: IT has happened to me

Krishan,

It's generally accepted that SNGs have the lowest variance when compared to ring games and MTTs. I don't recall the largest downswings posted at those stakes, but I imagine it's higher. I kicked off December by dropping $1500 at the 55s over 50 tournaments, which is my highest (and has occurred multiple times).

IC5, as you know by now, IT happens. Getting through IT is part of playing these games - if you can do it, you're ready for anything SNGs can throw at you.

Thanks, I'm going to ask the most hate question. What sort of win rates can you achieve? I think an ROI of 30% is achievable? So in the 55s you make 18 per tourny? Figuring 8 tournies an hour? So 144 per hour? Is that right? Seems high...

For reference at 5/10 short I have about 250ish hours at 130+ per hour (rakeback + bonus included). And I was by no means a tremendous shorthand player at that time.
