Default SNG results after 15 tournaments, review?

15 is definitely a small sample size, but not uber small.

The early results look like I have a knack for them..

$5+$1 - 11 tournies - 4 1st, 2 2nd, 1 3rd
$10+1 - 2 tournies - 1 1st
$20+2 - 1 tourney - 2nd
$30+3 - 1 tourney - 1st

ROI% - 179.72
Finish in the money - 66.67%
Average Finish - 3.6 (I went out in 9th once with KK, guy with J/T caught a straight [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img])

Once again these are ultra small numbers, but look very promising?

UATrewqaz,

This is the nicest reply you'll receive from your post so please listen carefully. Congrats on your first 15 tournies, that ROI is awesome! But 15 tournies IS "uber small". When looking for statistical relevence, there is really no diference between 15 and ONE. You're going to find this hard to believe, but you need hundreds and hundreds of tournies before before you can begin to draw any conclusions.

Also, please accept my apologies if this is insulting but by your statistics, it looks like you may have played a few 5's and had some luck, a $10 and had some luck, etc. PLEASE STOP IMMEDIATELY and move back to the 5's! You are headed for a crash course if you continue to move up buy-in's after playing and winning only one SNG at a certain level. If this assessment is off-base and you have actually played a bazillion $5's - again, I apologize. If not, I implore you to move back down immediately.

Again, congrats on the kick-azz finishes.

Nice start. I wouldn't drop to the $5's though. Play the $10's for the same amount of rake and see how you do in 500. If bankroll is not an issue (say ~$500), you could probably just start at the $22's. I have played 250 $10's and 700 $20's and my ROIs are nearly identical.

You are correct. I consider uber-small to be about 25-30.

Double up then triple up. 179.72% ROI might be sustainable if you never played again. But hey, at least ur prophecy stats will be good.

-EV

PS. there was this one guy at a 55 who kept on saying that he had the best prophecy stats with only like 50 tourneys. I just shrugged and then I went back to 6 tabling pokemon red version.
