There are probably less than 10 ppl consistently making $5k/month at SNGs right now. Good luck.

Your saying this like its impossible. Have a 15% roi at the 27s, play ten at a time and 30 hours and week and earn 5k a month..

You make it seem like it's so easy getting 15% roi at the 27's 10 tabling long term. I think you have to be pretty damn good to get 15% roi over 4k+ games or so.

When you play that much, the regs tend to start calling you a lot.

This is a huge problem for me right now as I feel like I am getting called so much lighter the more often I play on FTP. It's a lot of average players (not 2+2 who have watched a video or two of mine) that have seen me shove bvb ATC a few too many times. I guess one way to get around that is multiaccount/change sites.

ZOMG SNGS ARE SO [censored] HARD UR SO RIGHT.

like sometimes u have to fold, and um sometimes u have to go "all in"

Wow I just noticed the part time thing. Yeah I'm gonna say not too many making that much part time.

Although... since I got a job 6 months I've basically averaged about $1k on the weekends I've played = about 100 SNGs. With generally $1k-$2k in my online roll (I keep withdrawing as I never want to lose more than a few $K w/o being forced to take a break - and I still owe $14k in credit cards.)

So there's some happy news for you guys. I do think I've run very well on the whole though. I've had all my money in play maybe 15 times and only bustoed twice. Both of those times I borrowed a few hundred, bounced back immediately, and then ran real well.

See all you have to do is get me bragging, and I'll turn positive. SNGs are free money, EVERYONE get on board!

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.

In the peak of sngs it was possible to make 100k per month in sngs on party.

I'm pretty sure it's a typo and he meant 100k/yr.
