Default What does this say about my game?

OK...this is only ~200 50's since I started trying my hand playing them full time`last week so take this with a grain of salt if you wish. After my first 1000 towards the end of the month I will post a more detailed report of my first thousand at the 50's.

My place distribution so far is
1st - 14%
2nd - 14.5%
3rd - 10%
4th - 15%

ROI - 20%
ITM - 38%

I was particularly bad HU and shorthanded until about 4 days ago when I had a HU strategy blitzkrieg on everything I could find to read. Since then I have been on a tear...this is probably just short term variance and means absolutely nothing.

Anyways, If my stats continue to resemble this (lots of 4ths followed by 1sts and 2nds) what exactly does this mean about my style of play, and is it good, or am I taking too many risks at the bubble and beyond?

Thanks

Not a whole lot. Honestly, you're playing the $50s for god's sake. Stop worrying about your ROI and finish distribution after 200 games, it will only hurt your potential for improvement.

200 SNGs is statistically meaningless.

lol...thanks for the great info guys. I know this is a small sample (I stated that in my first post) and doesn't mean too much. That is why I asked hypothetically if my play continued to hold to these trends what this might mean; mainly the place distribution.

Like I said before, I will have 1000 under my belt in a few weeks and will make a more detailedpost then. If I should abandon this post and wait til then to ask opinions/advice, tell me and I will.

I honestly don't know what you mean by this. I am trying to keep on top of my trends as they happen since I am still feeling out a lot of situations in a SnG structure as opposed to "normal" poker until I get more games and knowledge under my belt. I was simply hoping for some indications of what this might mean/tell me if these trends hold up. I really didn't want everyone jumping down my throat since I would like to become a more active member of this forum in the coming weeks/months.

damn, now i have to go and see if i warned you yet. if i warned you not to intentionally avoid the censors already, and you did it anyway, i'm going to have to ban you for a week. if not, consider yourself warned.

ok, I'll consider myself warned. I don't really want to get into it with you - I think you're a great moderator, but what is the difference between what I posted and the language you used?
