Re: Profitability of SnGs
[ QUOTE ]
Again, is this a Party SnG or all SnGs for you? Also how does Rakeback factor into your numbers? 25% rakeback should be an increase of something like 2.5% ROI, at least at the $11 level... [/ QUOTE ] Party is the benchmark when using hourly rate because the games are so fast. Although you can attain a much higher ROI on some other sites, the games are way too long to keep the hourly rate the same. This is why the other sites are good for people with a small bankroll who are more interested in keeping ROR low and Party is the better site for those trying to earn the maximum hourly rate. Lori

Long term, I don't really think an ROI in the 40s is sustainable even at the 11s. It is. I may have led people into believing it is easy, it isn't. Lori [/ QUOTE ] I guess I should've said that I don't know if it is sustainable for ME. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] I've been near 40% for my past 200 games or so, but I just chalked it up to variance. Same old question that everyone asks, but at what point should I consider moving up? Currently I 3 table at the 11s and the bankroll requirements of moving up to the 22s isn't really an issue. Maybe this is stupid, but I don't want to move up without feeling like I've "paid my dues". I've only been playing seriously for about a year...

Play two $11s and a $22 for a while and see how you get on? My guess is that with your observational skills you'll be fine. Lori

Re: Profitability of SnGs
You are more than ready for the 22s, and probably the 33s in a short while too.

Re: Profitability of SnGs
<<<I've played .5/1 LHE for three years and I can't earn $3/hr.>>>
Interesting point, Lorinda. Here is a concern/question that has recently came to my mind. I was in Vegas last week (placed in the mid 600's on Friday's event btw) and played in a few tourneys while I was there. I had NEVER played a live cash game, but it seems if you want anything to do at all before or after tournies, cash games are the way to go. I was thinking about working on my cash game so I would have more to do "live" the next time I end up in Vegas, but you have me questioning that thought process. In a short period of time, I have become an above average tourney and sit-n-go player, but I absolutely STINK at ring games. I don't acheive very well and I really don't even enjoy it as much. Any thoughts? Les

I use bonuses on sites to learn different skills. For instance, I've worked off three $100+ bonuses this week at .5/1 limit o8. I think I won a little, but I got paid $400 or so for my lessons. In the age of the internet, it is no longer as crucial to be well versed in every game, but you never know what tomorrow's craze will be.... If everyone starts playing triple draw lowball, I might be in trouble.... so I try to have an understanding of everything that I could at least build on if I ever have to. At the moment, we are in the box seat. SNG play is the immediate future, but who knows what will be next. Lori
