Profitability of SnGs

i dont have ANY trouble multitabling sngs, as just about every move is automatic. its one of the easiest forms of poker to play, and therefore can be heavily multitabled. in a ring game, you have to actually make decisions, and think on occasion about what the best play is. in a sng, its generally fairly easy. holla

Would you say this is true for Party/skin SnGs or all SnGs? I don't find this to be true, but then again I play with lower blinds and larger stacks.

My hourly rate is roughly $2,000/hr if you extrapolate from my last 5 minutes played.

I think I will quit my day job.

How do most people multitable SNGs? Start however many you want to play at once and let them finish? Or do most people just play them continuously?

[durron597]

Did you just win 3 $215s in that period?

This is probably a dumb question, but why play $22s at all? Good players can do 20-25% ROI at the $22s, and 40%ish at the $11s, wouldn't the $11s be just as profitable but require much less bankroll?

Someone who can hit 40% at the $11s could probally hit 30% at the $22s, so no.

I have multitabled hundreds of thousands of hands of 3/6 and thousands of $55 SnG. To get the hourly winrate you describe is so much easier via SnG it is hard for me to even compare them. I was never the best limit player, my winrates never exceeded 2bb/100 by a lot so maybe I am not the best to comment, but adding tables and maintaining anything over 2bb/hour is quite a feat. SnGs are so much simpler than ring games it is not even funny.

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...

They are just as complex, but the reward for playing well is better in SNGs.

Long term, I don't really think an ROI in the 40s is sustainable even at the 11s. Are you mixing up ITM and ROI? I have an ITM in the 11s of 44% but my ROI is 35% and I feel like I'm killing the game. An ROI in the 40s, for me at least, would be like running a 4 minute mile. If somebody was good enought to be over 40% ROI, I think that they should be thinking about moving past the 22s and into something even higher.
