Default Anyone with ROI Stats of sng\'s on Full Tilt vs. Pokerstars?

I'm looking to see which games seem to be the most profitable as I can no longer rape the games on Party.

Anyone with a significant sample size from both sites who can chime in (or hell, if you only play one, just post those and I'll compare with someone from an opposing site)

I understand that player style and such has an impact, I'm just looking for some basic numbers to work with. Be aware that I'm not interested in turbo/speed games, just regular structure ones.

I took 2nd on my first one at Stars this morning (usually a cash game player) and I haven't played on FTP yet. I'm trying to decide whether I want to do Stars with their awesome FPP store and nice looking software, or if I want FTP with 30% rakeback plus all their deposit bonuses. Thanks!

Oh yeah, in the past I've played 22-55 sng's, but I'm not adverse to playing a little higher if the games are good (i.e. maybe up to a 77 game)

Dude, you already posted a Stars vs FT post today which got locked. This post sucks too.

Stars or FT, whatever. Just play the site that suits you best.

FWIW I play Stars and it rules.

I think it got locked because I was asking a more generic "quality of play" question.

In this post I'm asking about ROI, which I think is a valid question. Saying "Stars rocks!" doesn't really provide an ROI. If you'd like to share, cool, if not, fair enough.

I think the problem that you are going to run into grandgnu is that it is going to be difficult to find someone that has played 1000 sng's at each site. And if you did, would the ROI difference mean anything.
- Did they play 1k sng's at one site and then the other? I imagine they improved over time
- If they played at both sites along the same stretch of 1k hands, would the better ROI site mean that you are going to have a better ROI at that site

It is unlikely you are going to get a reply that helps you out and/or is statistically relevant.

Hey Teck, thanks for the reply. I don't mind if I get an ROI from someone who's only played at Stars, and then another who's only played at FTP.

I'm just looking to get some samples. And if someone has happened to play both sites and wishes to chime in on their thoughts on the differences between the two, that's cool too.

I'd be happy to see stats from someone who's only played 500 sng's. I'm not looking at these as set in stone numbers, I'm just looking to see what peoples experiences have been.

Ok i will take the bait, what revelance you can draw to these is pretty hard to tell. I play regulars at both, i am cash player convert in the last 3 months, so fair to say im still learning while have some success.

Full Tilt 20+2's: 406 +$1004 roi 11.24%.Tho if you add in rakeback and bonuses you can add on 500 more dollars making it about 15% roi

Stars 20+2's: 548 +$2380 roi 19.74%. Have cleared 2 bonuse with this as well totalling 240.

So stars edges it probably but this could be varience etc.

Stars games are going to be juicier as a general rule because the games are larger. This is just dumb.

Thanks for the stats Long, it's that type of stuff I'm looking for. I'm not trying to find concrete evidence, I just want to see what others have experienced, if there's any patterns amongst the groups of players, etc.

I worked out the average and it seems like both come to about -9.09%.

Hope this helps.
