    I've been playing a combination of the $2 + $.15 and $5 + $.30 6 max super turbos on full tilt with some ok results over about 400 games.
    Obviously this is a small sample (just play recreationally every once in a while), but just want to know if I'm on the right track here. Based on the stats, can anyone see some general leaks I might have? I feel like I might be bubbling way too much.

    games 380
    1st - 73
    2nd - 83
    3rd - 74
    4th - 63
    5th - 54
    6th - 33

    Buyin - $1342.50
    Winnings - $1179.25
    Profit - $163.25
    ROI - 12.2%

    I play the 9-mans mostly, but 12% can't possibly be sustainable. The only leak I can see from the post above is that you might actually think improving can make your ROI go up from where it is...

    The rake used to be a bit higher when I played most of my super turbos, but anyone doing 3% at that point was killing it at the $28 level.

    errr yah best regs even at MICRO levels can hardly beat the game at 3% anymore but look up WPTFUJI, he's the best there ever was playing these stake super turbos and he runs around 8% but can still hit 10k game breakeven stretches. I got my boy randinho at like 10% roi at the 5s but he's in the middle of a 10k breakeven stretch too. I thought I was decent but I'm only a 2-3% roi player at a 10k game sample so I guess I'm just average- most regs are. But 10k isn't a huge sample, it'll prob take 3X the # of games to really have a good idea.

    I don't really play these other than the occasional one just for fun/get rid of tilt/ect. I think your numbers are very good so far and if you continue to play like you are you should be able to grind out a decent amount of profit from these things. Like the previous posters have said these things can be brutal and beat even the best players though. It seems from your stats thus far that you are competent in handling the killer variance, so these might be what you should grind out in your spare time.
