Re: OT: Party vs Stars (ROI impact)

With the 9 player tables, you should be changing one of your OOTM finishes to a 3rd, or even doing that and changing one 3rd place finish to a 2nd place finish. Once you've done that, recalculate your ROI. I think that would be more realistic comparision given the different starting # of players. [/ QUOTE ] I see your point, ... I am not sure how to express my thought... but one more 2nd or 3rd over 10 games is more significant than say over 20 games. So how many more ITM would I have at a 9 person table vs a 10 AND over how many games (i.e. 4 ITM in 4 games vs 4 ITM 10 games or 4 ITM 20 games... etc?) 4 ITM for every 9 games vs 3 for every 10? Do you understand my question? |

ROI %.............-1.6%.......6.1% ITM %.............41.7%......41.7% [/ QUOTE ] If it were just random, you'd expect your ITM% to go up when there are only nine players (instead of ten) while they still pay the same three places. |

[/ QUOTE ] I was keeping all things equal except rake, and # of players which is the difference between Paty and Stars. Buy-in is also different, but not relevent in ROI percentage terms |

In my limited experience with the Stars 11s, my 1,2,3 percentage is 23,29,25. Once I get ITM it seems to be a matter of who wins the most coin flips, without much regard to stack sizes coming in off the bubble. [/ QUOTE ]77% ITM? |

Re: OT: Party vs Stars (ROI impact)
DJ, Comparing PP $10+1 & PS $15+1 PP - "30% get paid" Stars - "33.333333333333333333333333.. get paid" if you start with a PP ITM of 40, take the extra 3.333333.... PP - 20roi PS - 18roi (roughly) ...with an even finish distribution. If your ITM places look more like 20%,30%,50%...you're looking at 5.45 vs. 4.40roim respectively. |

Re: OT: Party vs Stars (ROI impact)
You haven't kept all things equal. How many 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th place finishes?
You've switched from a game that pays 30% of the players to one that pays 1/3 of the players. At the very least, you ought to increase your ITM% by about 11%. |

[/ QUOTE ] So if I am reading your post correctly, your ROI at Party will be better no matter how you slice it because of the 10th person at the table, offset slightly due to a lower rake at the Stars turbo's. Several have commented that finishing ITM at Stars is easier because there is only 9 people and I need to factor that in. How? An extra 10-11% has been suggested... so if you finish ITM 30% (math is easier in my head than 40% ITM) at party (3 out of 10 games or 9 out of 30 games, should you finish ITM at Stars 10 out of 30 games due to playing against one less person? And which ITM finish do you assume, b/c that makes big difference to ROI, obviously. If this is a good assumption I will plug in those #'s (with the additional ITM going to 3rd)... |
