yeah - i hadn't attained nearly the pro status that i hold now. i guess it was the thong that "tightened" up my play.
i think fnord dug this up because he's still bitter about the night i punked him playing 2/4 limit. :P {geez - i know i'm going to pay for that}

i think it depends on the player. and it would depend on how you define profit. you can play for an hour in a $20 sng, get knocked out on the bubble, and have nothing to show for your hours work. or you can do the same thing, come in first, and you've profited $78 in an hour. i've also had runs of up to 12 sng's not in the money, as well as 9 sng's in a row in the money.
the consensus seems to be sng's are fairly stable - not too much variance. there are a lot of people at this site that average 40 - 60% ITM on sngs, which is profitable.
limit ring can be very "swingy" and you need a larger bankroll to handle these swings, but over many hands, you can hit an acceptable earn rate (in BB per 100 hands).
NL ring seems to be less swingy than limit. i'm trying the multi-table NL ring approach, and so far, i've seen good profits with not too much variance. still to early to really say, but this approach has worked very well for tyson.
