Starting out in SNGs - advice?
Hey everyone. I've been playing poker seriously for about a year, and in that time I've played maybe 250 SNGs. I currently don't have any money in my accounts, but in the next week or so I'm going to be depositing, and I want to start focusing on SNGs.
I plan on whoring up to a $300-ish bankroll and beginning on the $11s on Party. My immediate goal is to be able to beat the $22s for a decent ROI, in order to supplement my income a little bit. Just a couple questions. First of all, any advice you can give me on how to start out in the $11's would be greatly appreciated. I've read AeloMagus' guide a few times, and come to this forum every now and then (obviously I'll start coming more often). 250 SNGs in a year is obviously a tiny amount, though, so I don't have a lot of experience with them. I've read both HoH's and TPFAP. Secondly, let's say my goal is to earn $400 a month playing poker. More is gravy, but $400 is my goal. This seems like a realistic amount to make off of the $22s. Am I wrong? Moving up eventually is certainly an option, but if I can do that with the $22s, I'd like to take it a bit slower. Thanks in advance!

Re: Starting out in SNGs - advice?
As for advice, read this forum especially bubble hands to get a feel for how aggressive you should be. It is reasonable for a decent player to make $400 a month 4 tabling the 22s.
Good luck and see you around AcidReign

Re: Starting out in SNGs - advice?
I think its more than reasonable to make $400/month part-time at the 10s. Just depends how many SnGs you plan on playing per month. I would recommend adding tables slowly. Multi-tabling with mistakes will only lose you money. Aleo's guide is a great starting point. You can open up more as you gain confidence and experience. Post hands and read lots of posts. You kinda have to sponge it all in.

Re: Starting out in SNGs - advice?
Playing at the $22s, and you said you'd been playing about a year, so a ROI of 20% is very reasonable. That equates to less than 100 games a month to make $400.

Remember that Empire will be moving to ipoker.net soon and that ipoker.net sucks.
Also, never take rakeback from someone who won't buy a banner and resorts to cheap tactics. They NEVER pay. Lori
