Prolly even more, but I guess at least 25 buyins. Very easy to lose 7-8 in a row and saw omg wtf happened.

yea, if you play me....

In all seriousness though, how profitable can these be. Say you have a 60% winrate single-tabling and play on average 4 an hour. Playing 100 hours a month that's 400 tournaments equalling $1000 in entries and $1600 in earnings making you about $600 or $6/hr.

Also, who runs $20 +.50's? I see $20 +$1's at stars which would drop that net profit even more, down to $4/hr.

I also feel if you have a HUGE edge that winning more than 60% at the 20's would be nearly impossible over the proper sample size.

if you only have a 60% winrate then you should DEFINITELY not be playing these
