I play primarily $10 and less SNGs on FullTilt and Pokerstars, and would appreciate any feedback offered. I have recorded my results for 300 games and have the following stats. They are all NLHE,occasional MTT ITM 40% ROI 29% Any opinions on moving up in stakes? My bankroll is money won (if I lose it all, no biggie) and is currently about $150. Thanx in advance

My bankroll is money won (if I lose it > all, no biggie) and is currently about $150. Thanx in advance How many of those 300 games were played at the $10 level? Based on your bankroll the 29% ROI doesn't make sense if you started with $10 and kept winning since you'd have around $800 if that was the case. Please scrub all non-$10 tourneys from your data and recalculate your ROI using on those and repost. As it stands your bankroll can support the $5 but not the $10 with only $150 using the 5% rule.

Thanx in advance Stats are good, bankroll seems very low for the amount of games played, unless you've cashed out a bunch. As far as skill level goes, you won't see much of a change between $10's and $20's, so it all comes down to bankroll. If you can replenish with no problems, you can be much more relaxed with typical bankroll guidelines. My suggestion would be to play with a 20 buyin per level bankroll, and adjust (move down or up) based on overall comfort level. For now, with $150, I'd play $10's until you're up to $400, then move up to $20's. If you want to accelerate that, move up when you hit $300, but be prepared to move back down if you hit a bad spot.

Just curious Patti, Are you playing SNG's on Stars now? Just wondering where all the Party SNG refugees ended up.

For one-table SNGs, I'd want to have a bankroll of at least 25 buyins at the stakes I'm playing. -Patti -- Patti Beadles, Oakland, CA

Is this any stakes you're playing, or do you base it on your ROI? Having recently whiffed 10 SNGs in a row, and then 8 out of the next batch of 10 I played, I'm realizing it isn't that unlikely. Rather, I already realized it, but now I'm experiencing it.

You did this in one-table 50-30-20 SNGs? What's your typical win rate? That seems like a several-sigmas event for a winning player. -Patti -- Patti Beadles, Oakland, CA

It's based on your ROI and variance, as well as acceptable risk of ruin, and is completely independent of the stakes you're playing. OK, your ROI and variance probably vary by stakes, but ignoring that fact... I've had some fugly runs in the last couple of years. Sometimes they're just due to the card falling badly, and sometimes they're because a leak has developed. -Patti -- Patti Beadles, Oakland, CA
