Re: Future of sng\'s online?

There's a profit ceiling, so the best and brightest move on to cash. (At least the ones who aren't crusty old dudes that don't like to learn new stuff. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img])
SNGs can only support so many good players at the higher buyins ($60-$100s). So marginal players tend to clog up the games, run bad, then move on to something else. Then the games get juicier, marginal players win some and start clogging up the games again... etc.
At the highest buyins, even the bad players generally don't give away a lot more ev than the rake. So the above-$100 pros are playing mostly for VPPs/rakeback - with some soul-shatteringly brutal swings.
Enjoy!

I think you're really exaggerating. Good above $100 pros are playing for far more than rakenback. Also, 10 people making $5K/month of SNGs? I hope you were kidding. For one, every single person on the Sharkscope CardPlayer 07 Any Stakes leaderboard is making >$5K/month before rakeback. There's plenty of people making more than $5K per month of SNGs.
