Why is 50% ROI impossible? - Page 2

honestly.. who cares? if someone can do 50% roi at the 5 dollar sngs over 203580923580923098523 sngs.. why would they? they would be much better off just playing something else. sure, if you get 1500 chips and 15 minutes levels at a 5 dollar sng, you might be able to do 50% roi. you could probably fold into the money 10% of the time, and if you make 1 steal can make the money 30% of the time. throw in some decent plays, an occasional limp with a pp to flop a set and double up, an aggro raise with QQ to beat out JT on a T62 board, etc.. i mean.. it PROBABLY wouldnt be that difficult. but no one in their right mind would do it. waste of time. holla

who wouldnt want to 40 table the $6s? Thats $100/hr with no variance! Or better yet, 80 table them!

I care because it's part of the reason why I decided to move up to the $55s. I'm doing fairly well there although it's far too small a sample size to say. I just felt some comfort in knowing that if 50% ROI at the $33s is as tough a feat as everyone says it is, then I'm pretty sure I can get 20% at the 55s easier than that if I work hard on it.

50% at the 33:s is impossible, can't put it in any other way than that. 20% ROI at the 55:s is very very good.

lol, yea 50% in the 33s isnt even in the same ballpark as 20% in the 55s. aint even the same sport. holla

There is no mathematical argument for this, nor can there be, since the limiting factor here is not about mathematics, it's about how well the player pool actually plays. This is not a mathematical question but one of empiricism.

It's pretty close to empirical fact, however.

People would pick up a $20-bill if they saw it, not knowing that a $50-bill would fly past them when they bent down. That's why.

I had 52% ROI in August and September over the course of 44 $6 SNG's on Party.
