    I thought this would be a neat thread for all the SNG grinders.
    What sites do you play on?

    What do you play?

    How long do you play each session?

    How many sessions per day?

    How many tables?

    On Avg how much profit do you make per week?

    FullTilt of course.

    What do you play?

    Strictly 110+9 6-max turbos

    How long do you play each session?

    Depends on the day. Sometimes an hour or two between classes, sometimes 5-6 hours straight on the weekend. Also depends how im running. Running bad I try to stay away from playing too much, running well I cram as much as I can in.

    How many sessions per day?

    Again it heavily depends and can change quite frequently. Sometimes ill only play 6-8 tourneys in a day and if im running REAL bad ill just give up then and cut my losses.

    How many tables?

    2. I make pretty close to the same amount playing 2 as I do 4, and when I play 4 my ROI goes down, and as a result bigger swings. I hate variance so if I can play 2 and minimize it im all for it. Helps me stay positive and as a result, I win more.

    On Avg how much profit do you make per week? </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
    Profit is VERY skewed over the span of one week. Can be as bad as losing upwards of 2k and as good as winning 4-5k. But on average $1200-1500 per week is about right

    Its easy. In SNG's all you are doing is clicking the auto fold buttons 95% of the time. Then later on bubble time etc you can just look at your hand/all the stacks etc and decide to shove or fold within like 2 seconds. Its all so automatic.

    stars

    mostly $6.50 18 mans (throwing in some 45's sometimes) 8-12 tables...

    depends.. im pretty steady.. I seem to play about $50-$100 a day in MTT's and sng's keep my bankroll from falling thru the toilet..

    I play 3-5 hours a day..

    I did grind on tilt for a while and made like $900 in a month playing just the 5.50 18 and 45 mans they are soft, imo

    <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=2 width="100%" border=0><TBODY><TR><TD>What sites do you play on?

    stars,Tilt,Bodog

    What do you play?

    i play anything between 50s and 110s depending on the site

    How long do you play each session?

    i have horrible ADD and can only play a couple of hours at a time this prevents me from making more money becuz with sngs its all about volume and it cuts into the amoutn of time i can play at a time resulting in lost hours

    How many sessions per day?

    It depends i like to get a minimum of 30 sngs a day in and hopefully put in 50-60. But im one lazy dude
    How many tables?

    i play anywhere from 6-10 at a time depending on which site im playing on

    On Avg how much profit do you make per week? </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
    Umm it really depends since poker is such a swginy game i have had big weeks and i have had very small winning weeks. But as a long time sng player i really dont ever lose money but instead find my swings to be stretches that can be very long breakeven. (depending on volume) When i got back from the PCA i played 11 days and made 8k then played 7 the same volume in the next 7 days and made 500 $. Poker is funny like that but i love sngs becuz of how small the variance can be when ur not playing the top tier buy in sngs and instead playing more tables at lower stakes to increase profits

    15/25/ a little 55... do 9 man,18man,45man

    How long do you play each session?
    I do 20 tables and it takes about an hour, sometimes more depending on the 45mans.

    How many sessions per day?
    Sometimes 4-5 if i have the time, but it varies. Id say it averges out to 2 hours/ 2 sessions a day right now.

    How many tables?
    20

    On Avg how much profit do you make per week?
    VARRIIES, Right now having a bad downswing... my ROI is 9% tho for the 25 turbos so i know i can beat it. Id say like 300 week avg
