Re: HU SNG expected hourly rates??? ANybody???
In $20 sngs , you will win no more than 65% of the time . In fact , from experience , you should probably be around low 60's if you're very good and 65% if you're exceptional .
If we estimate that you will win 60% ( a reasonable estimate) , then you will profit 40*0.6-21 = $3 for each sng played . Based on experience , the average duration of each sng is about 15 minutes so you CAN make 3*4=$12 playing 4 sng's per hour . If you 4 table , then you may be able to play up to 16 sng's /hour but your win rate will be much lower than 60% . If you win 55% of the time , then you will profit 40*0.55-21= $1/sng . This means that 16 sng's will equate to something like $16/hour . |

[/ QUOTE ] Thanx Jay I just didnt know how to figure out all that math, anyways I have a friend that 4 tables the $20 HU SNGS that has a 20% ROI over 700+ SNGS and was just wondering what someone doing this could potentiallyh make Thanx |

Re: HU SNG expected hourly rates??? ANybody???
I think 65% is far too low. After I cash out I play these games to get me bankroll up and running again. I only play 1 at a time but turbo blinds, and the typical player is just awful. I think my average must be about 75% and im not brilliant (else I wouldnt be playing $20 games) Say 10 minutes at each game, over an hour, id say $60 average is good going. If you can even 2 table then $100 ph wouldnt be an unrealistic target

Re: HU SNG expected hourly rates??? ANybody???
Over the last few months my primary game has been $20 and £30 heads up mainly cos I havent had enough time or concentration to grind my usual games. I dont keep track of HU games on pt but I would guess I have played a few hundred games by now, and I would stick with about 75%. Sorry this isnt more specific but a good player can certainly aim for higher than 65% playing $20 games.
Im curious jay, do you think its the nature of HU tournies that caps good players at 65%? If you played $1 heads up games is 65% still exceptional, or would you be expecting higher? |

I honestly don't believe that Ivey or Chip can win 75% of the time at the $20HU SnGs. No one is doing better than ~65% wins over a sufficient sample (which may be in the several thousands) playing headsup shootouts, even down in the $20s.

[/ QUOTE ] I cannot comment on 1$ heads up games , but you would really be doing yourself a disservice if you were winning 70% of the time at this level . Why not move up to $5 games instead ? Reduce your win rate , but you should still earn more profits this way . I remember solving a question a long time ago about how often you would win if one player were to shove all in on every hand in an sng . Believe it or not , but a good player will not win more than two thirds of the time even if he were playing optimally . To give you a crude idea on why it's difficult to win more than two thirds of your games , just remember that 3-2o wins around 32% of the time hold and cold . As a final note . Your goal is NOT to maximize your win rate but to maximize your $/h . |

I know the $20 wouldnt be too much but I'm just interested in knowingthis info Thanx for any replies [/ QUOTE ] I played primarily HU SnGs for about a year. I started out modestly, with only about a 55 or 56 % win rate at the $10 level. After I got more experience, I was around 62%. Keep in mind I single-tabled these. However, I played pretty aggressively, and tried to get 10 games/hour. I probably more accurately got 8 or 9 /hour though. My chart after 700 games: If you're gonna multitable, your hourly rate will probably be higher, but you're winrate will be lower of course. This is just a guess, but I'd say 4-tabling will get you approx. twice the hourly rate that single-tabling would. Good Luck. EDIT: Keep in mind that the difference between a 55% and 60% winrate is huge. 60% winrate has triple the $$/hour that 55% has. |
