Default STT Finanical Statistics.....

Okay I recently have read a lot of posts about people "claiming" to make $100,000+ of playing lower limit SNGs for a living. Now I don't doubt this, but how many exactly are actually stataining this level of profit?

Please take the time to fill out this forum that will educate us in what is possible.

well, i answered as best i can, but the reality is I play some mix of limit ring, nl ring, mtt's and sng's. Some months I play almost entirely sng's, other months I play none. so, i fudged where needed to put it into an all sng context for you.

There's been "a lot" of posts where people claimed to be making 6 figures a year playing low limit sngs? I must have missed those...

Do you really expect me to get a list of all the links of posts where they talk about expected ROI and income from SNGs playing? Cause I'm not doing it.

just because you think that someone's ROI x their stakes x some random number of tables x 40 hours a week x 52 weeks a year = 6 figures, does not mean that people who claim some ROI and some number of tables at some stakes will attain that earn. most people who do this professionally do it to get away from the lifestyle of somoene who works 40+ hours a week. they play enough to make enough to be comfortable, and to have the things they want. they do not work until they want to kill themselves.

Define "Bankroll"

Do you mean active poker bankroll, or like moeny you have made so far this year?

I keep my active bankroll pretty small because I like earning interest.
