Default Question about SNG Varience

lol donkaments...

I've lost roughly 5 buyins over 42 tournaments at the 6.50's on stars and 11+1's on FullTilt combined.. just kinda pissed off that I've been breaking even... havent played many sngs

how long does this [censored] last for if your half worth a [censored] at all?

Multiply your number by 10. If you're still breaking even, you're probably just in a slump.

In other words, more than 42.

you will have a sense of your true ROI after about 3,000 games, and even then if you improve significantly after 1500 games it will throw it off. If your not comfortable with ICM bubble play try STTF.

~1000 with many ups and downs. Lose 20 buy ins, win 40, lose 20. In other words, come back in a few months and you'll have a good idea. Hang out in the STTF, and you'll learn a lot.
