As already mentioned, the partypoker 50-man SNGs are pretty nice for this. Much less variance than star's 180s.

What kind of ROI are you guys earning at the 50 man Party SNGs?

$4/180's is where I've been building, variance sucks due to a ton of suck outs, but there are a TON of weak players. My 1000th post discussed some of what I've found playing them. I was at your bankroll a month ago and have nearly 1k now, goal being 2k so I can safely switch to the $20 180's, but to start 4/180's are the way to go.

Yeah. i would like to read it too... btw AceLuby, how much time did you invest in order to go from 400$ to 1000$ in one month, and how many tables at a time? I am planing to do the same thing, and would love some info on the subject.

My 1000th Post

Above is the link. To address the time issue. I played on average 2 tournaments a night (2 tabling) after work for roughly 4 weeks w/ a ROI of ~300% and ITM of ~50%. Granted, this isn't at all sustainable, but it definitely is very possible for a short period of time. In that month I had a 2nd, 3 3rds, a 5th & 7th, 2 8ths and 4 9ths, with about 10 10-18, in roughly 40-50 tourneys.

If I lost in both of those tourneys in one night I would either start another if I had time, or played the $1/45 tourneys. The reasons for playing these ultra micro limit tourneys is:

a) doesn't hit my bankroll
b) similar play to the $4/180

NO i wouldn't play the $12/45 turbos.. The tourneys are $4/180s and the 40k on Party. Also there is a $20 buyin on Jetset thats weak

You mentioned in your 1000th post Nath's 5000 post, I'd like to read it, but I've been searching, and have no idea what it is titled, or when it was posted, and he has a few posts. Can someone give me a link to it, or direction on what to search?
