What is a reasonable return on investment at SnG tables?

[terry0222]

I'm relatively new to SnG play, but I find I enjoy that type of play (on-line) from time-to-time. I am curious as to what is considered a reasonable return on investment over time? I am defining investment as the "buy in + house fees." The return would be net profit AFTER buy in and fees and subtracted out. Example: Over time you enter 100 $10 + 1 tournaments. You win $20 in every tournmant. So, gross winnings are $2000, but total fees are 1100. Therefore, profit is $900, and ROI is $900 / $1100. (I'm not saying these are realistic numbers. Just wanted to make the point that I define the numerator as net profit rather than total revenues.) So, again, what are reasonable expectations for a competent SnG player (over time)?

Thanks...Terry

ROI is always Profit/Buyins.

Reasonable ROI is over 10% at the lower levels on Party (if speed, over 20% if not. 5% at the higher levels (if speed, 10% if not). There are people who do substantially better

I can't believe I'm getting into this here...

but ROI at the speeds drops, not the other way around.

Its all in the FAQ

I think 354.5% is a very reasonable ROI over 1 sample.

my ROI for every pokerstars $6.50 STT I've ever played is 128.46%...

sustainable?

If you've played 3,000 of them I think it is.
