I finished my 400th $5.50 SNG a couple days ago. Here are my final stats - played on Pacific/UB/Poker Stars/Full Tilt.

total won $2,749
total wagered $2,200
Plus/Minus $549
ITM% 51% target 45-50%
ROI% 25% target 35%

I have played 77 $11s thus far - spread on different sites mentioned earlier over the last few months. Here are my stats:

total won $953
total wagered $847
Plus/Minus $106
ITM% 39% target 45-50%
ROI% 13% target 35%

My ROI is a little weak thus far in the $11s, although I have mixed them in with my $5.50s without making a firm commitment to the $11s.

My bankroll was as high as $890 last night, before hitting a rough patch of 7 OTMs in the $11s. Basically, I got a little greedy and tried to play 4 tables at once on FT and PS after I took a first and third on FT playing only 2 tables. I had 3 4th place finishes in my runs last night, when some typical stuff that can happen to anybody happened 1) 4 handed, AQ raise UTG runs into aces in the BB and adios, 2) 4 handed, jacks run into AJ, only to have the ace pop up on the flop. I did misplay one hand when (5 handed), I limped in with K4 suited in the SB, flop is 3 K 3, and I slow played the hand like an idiot (brilliant when it works though of course), and the guy had a BB special with J3 and put me out.

Anyways, as my fellow posters have recommended, I should move up from the $5.50s. I think its in my best interest to play 2 tables max at these until/if I start killing them, rather than try to be like that guy ZeeJustin and play 12 tables at the same time - how he does this competently, I'll never know.

Also, I've had a lot of positive what-ups from people on UB - good to hear from you. I've decided to play limit only on UB for a while to work off that big bonus before hitting their tighter (IMO) SNGs again. The players seem to be a wee bit better on UB at the low limit SNGs than on other sites.

Good luck on the $11 SnGs on UB. I'll be watching for you. I think it is time for me to try this as well. My bankroll will support it but I'm unsure of my game. Maybe it is just my grinder mentality. I hate to see my bankroll go down.

Hey Bob,

If you are unsure of your game, play more at the $5.50 level. What is your bankroll?
