Default what is better sng 6+1 or 10+1 ?

Lets say your rio in $10+1 is a bit lower then the $6+1.

please correct me:
if you play 4 tables of $6+1 you will have 4 chances to win first.
if you play 2 tables of 10+1 you will have 2 chances to win, but if you win you will win more then the 6+1.

so which should i play? i dont know how to callculate the expectation.

you can assume that the RIO on 6+1 = about 30%
and in the 10+1 is about 22%

Neither game is easier to beat, or offers better odds. The odds are equal for every player at both SNGs.

You should play whichever game you are better at.

if you are better at shorter tables and are good LAG style, the 6 player is better...if you can play a really tight game, 10 player is better (i think), because you can usually double up early on if you just sit around and be patient (especially at lower limits $30 and less) - harder to double up super easy with 6 player because you are forced to play more hands.

Seems like you answered your own question.. 30% of $6 is $1.80, 22% of $10 is $2.20.

In other words, as long as your ROI in the $10 game is more than 3/5 what it is in the $6 game you'll make more per game playing in the $10 game.

But, you said something about comparing FOUR $6 games to TWO $10 games. Are you saying you are more comfortable multi-tabling the lower buyin game? If you are talking about earnings per hour, you'll need to make the corresponding adjustments. (Four $6 games at 30% is worth $7.20, while two $10 games at 22% would be $4.40.)

Given you can't even spell ROI correctly, I doubt you can expect figures of 30%/22% at all.
