Default I have way too many 7ths.

I'm playing on Empire 22s. I just finished my first 250 with a ROI of 21% and ITM of 39%. So I'm happy with how things are going, but I have a very large amount of 7ths.

My distribution:
1-38
2-28
3-30
4-18
5-28
6-27
7-36
8-22
9-11
10-11

Is there anything I should be looking at to help improve this? Am I getting too aggresive at the 25/50 level?

You're not going to like hearing this but its a sample size issue. Just not enough info, but glad to see you're doing well overall.

I noticed that your 8th place finishes are a little low, so try to finish 8th a little more and it will bring your 7th place finishes more in line and should not effect your ROI/ITM if done correctly.

your roi is fine, worrying about something as incredibly stupid as having a bunch of 7ths is well, incredibly stupid. especially when you throw in to the basket stuff like your itsy bitsy sample size. the best advice you'll ever get about this is to just forget about your damn 7th place percentage and be happy with the money.

There's a very good chance this is the case. You should be able to fold your way consistently into 5th place, in theory.

Your highest distribution is 1st place, and yet you are worried about the number of 7th place finishes you have? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I get the feeling this guy doesn't care about his 7th place finishes. He just wanted everyone to go "wow" at his 1st place finishes. I mean, why would you post something like this.. it's pointless.
