I think its an interesting experiment. I don't think its one I'm going to draw any hard and fast conclusions off of though.
The goal of the experiment was to "have a reasonable understanding of how much $/SNG a skilled 2+2er can make while multi-tabling the 800 chip and 1000 chip SNGs on Party right now." It will not (and I don't think its Irie's intention) to come up with an average of 2+2 ROI. It also does not seek to achieve a range of ROI at which one could expect to be. If say the average over the 10k SNGs is 20% ROI, then it is reasonable to assume that a skilled SNGer can possibly obtain an ROI of 20% at the time of the experiment. To me though it would basically be a nice way to measure my e-penis in the privacy of my own home without having everyone else glare at me and flame me for it. Moral of the story, you whip out your e-penis in public, you wind up with e-herpes all you're left with is a flaming e-penis. |

I don't think he's trying to draw many accurate conclusions. I think he's trying to get into the ballpark on one specific thing.

I'm just pulling this out of my arse, but maybe the current profitibility of SNGs at party.

[/ QUOTE ] I don't think he can get an answer to that question without a pretty freakin' large margin of error based on the statistical flaws in the data collection process. He will most likely find that they are still profitable. He will not find a number that is in the ballpark, as to how profitable they are. |

[/ QUOTE ] When I am finished, you will know how much money a group of previously successful SNG players earned over 30,000+ SNGs in a short period of time. I am not going to beg anybody to find meaning in that. If you feel that you are better off by not even knowing the results, then you should not look at the data. If you feel that you are better off by knowing, or if you are in any way curious... then you can look at it because I will post it. That is all. This is not complicated, nor have I said I am setting out to prove anything. I am collecting some data. I sincerely apologize if this angers some people. Irieguy |

Irieguy [/ QUOTE ] If you are just collecting data, that is fine. It will not come close to showing you the profitability of SNGs, though. It will be a number that is flawed statistically because of the different sample sizes for each player and the skill difference between these players (and the levels they are playing at). If I measure the batting averages for Barry Bonds over 500 at bats, Andruw Jones over 750 at bats and an above average minor league player over 1000 at bats, then average these for a batting average, I learn nothing. Especially if no one else observes these at-bats and I ask the baseball players to report the data to me themselves. P.S. I'm not angry at all. I thought it was a pretty civil discussion. |

i will play 5 109s to contribute. i will start with a win and end with a win, using my selective sampling techniques. im sure you will be able to grab oodles of information from that. holla

Just a curious observation that sorta relates to this data collection:
I think that this time of the year is going to be slightly more profitable than the rest as the holidays are giving people more down time and the cold weather in some regions will induce more indoor hours and in turn more internet poker for many people. Just curious if this is a concern, furthermore there could be an additional data collection after the new year with the same players that could also help determine if that time epriod was more profitable. I do understand that it is hard to derrive any concrete evidence due tot he variance but it may be sometihng to think about. |
