Best ROI ever?

    Default Best ROI ever?

    Hi, just had a few questions:
    1) Does anyone know what the best ROI achieved at the 10 dollar level is? Or any level for that matter. I assume high roi can be achieved at low
    2) Also... what ROI do you think is achievable in the long run?

    3) Also, when is your bankroll big enough to move to the 20 dollar level?

    I'm sitting at about 360 dollars and have played a few 20 dollar games in the past without much success, but have played the 10 dollar level quite well.

    How many games have you actually played at the $10 level?

    If you are crushing this level, then you could probably go with 30 buyins...so for the $20 level, you would need a bankroll of $660. Personally, I would go with 50 buyins...thus needing a bankroll of $1100.

    Check the SnG Tactics: FAQ for your other questions:

    Can't really answer #1 and #2 for you but I also use the 30 buyin limit before I move up. I wouldn't move to the 20's until a BR of 660 as well.

    Also, I used to be extremely concerned about ROI like yourself until I realized that it's better to sacrifice ROI for a better hourly. I used to run at 30% ROI at 5 dollar buy-ins but that gets your bankroll literally no where if you are playing 1 table at a time. =p

    Thanks for the advice. Yeah... I guess i'm getting a little obsessed with my ROI. I've played 318 games at 32%. I also placed well in some 4 dollar 180 man tournies so its a little high. I usually play 2 tournies at a time, anything past that and I get a headache.

    I suppose a 5% roi at 1k sitngos pays alot more than 30% at 10$ sitngos...

    I ran at 80% ROI over about 100 games at the $11s on Stars.

    I ran like god though, tiny sample.
    Just dipping my toes back in.

    I only just started playing SnGs recently, and my ROI is currently 118%. I expect this to fall gradually. In hourly terms, I probably make $2.50/hr since I only 1-table. But I play for fun.

    I expect this to fall RAPIDLY.
    You are an FTR station-pwn'ing badass motherf**ker. You have no pansyass, girly-girl, crybaby fears. Pwn the f**king stations like you know you ought to. And win some damn money, dammit.
