Re: 9 sng vs 10 sng - ROI
[ QUOTE ]
wtf?
a 9 person SNG has only 9/10ths the prize pool.
there may be some marginal difference, if any, but it is hardly going to be statistically significant.

We've hashed this out a few times.
The more players, the more leverage there is for a skill edge. Generalize up to 2-table, 3-table, 10-table, and 100-table multis, for example (250% ROI is quite reasonable in the latter).
The difference between 10 and 9 players isn't large, but it is there. I think you may be misusing (or misunderstanding) the idea of "statistical significance". A small but real difference will eventually become statistically significant, given enough trials. Plus since the edge in STTs is so small to begin with, even one or two raw percentage points is "significant" in terms of earnings potential.
All that said, we'll never know for sure, because of the many other confounding factors that have made STTs teh suck since Black Friday. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
