Default Killing a non-P\'tracker site vs. switching sites to record your stats

Need a few informed opinions to help in my decision:

I'm currently playing the low/micro NL tables on a certain site to a pretty nice return - usually 10-25 BBs/100 hands. I've also maintained a steady ROI of around 50% w/ an ITM of 75% on the lowest-level SnG's. I enjoy the software there, the customer service is prompt and courteous, and my bonuses are starting to kick in; however...

This site doesn't support PokerTracker.

I would REALLY like to begin putting together a comprehensive statistical analysis of my play so that I can take that next step up, and in order to do that it looks like I'm going to have to DL PokerTracker and switch to a different site.

My question is this:
In my situation would you continue playnig primarily where I am now and not worry about PokerTracker, or would you switch your primary action to Party/Stars in order to start tracking?

Thanks in advance,
Adam

Well, PT is priceless, however, it seems that you are playing at such a low level that analysis might not be necessary. Do what you want. BTW, Party does not have limits lower that .50/1

Good point. I want, though, to begin climbing up the ladder to the point where stats do matter, it's just a question of how early I need to make the investment.

Right now I'm playing .25/.50 to the previously mentioned stats and have been considering jumping up anyway, so this wouldn't be too much of a problem. Thanks for the heads-up though!

This thread at the PokerTracker forum just might be relevant.

something tells me that when he gets some PT compatability that these numbers will turn out to be a gross overestimation.

Yep, he also claims to have a 50% ROI on s/n/g's. If only this were possible.

The BB rate may be an overestimation, yes, but if it is it's not too far off - typically if I buy in for $25 at a .10/.25 I leave with at least $30 after one hour. An occasional downswing accounts for placing the bottom end of the BB rate at 10per100.

As for my SnG ROI... perhaps I'm miscalculating, but isn't ROI calculated as (Winnings - EntryFees)/EntryFees? If that's the case, then for yesterday alone my ROI was approximately 45%:
($81-$33)/$33 = 1.45, an ROI of 45% correct?

Yes, then, in my original post I overstated my ROI, though given a little numbers crunching for the past few weeks I'd be confident in saying it is a solid 35-40%. If I am miscalculating I'd greatly appreciate a quick tutorial on the proper calculations.
