    Hmmm.... I wouldn't put it past me to have figured it incorrectly.

    Agree, you must be!

    -1 for every loss
    (return-stake)/stake for every cash

    add em all up and divide by total # of games

    Roughly win in 6-max is 255% 2nd is 91% so you can do

    (5(2.55)+3(0.91)-5)/13 which is about 80%

    So the leader has only 45.45% - this really shocked me, I expected way higher!

    Really going to help my chances, I thought I was out of this already with a score of -11% xD

    Wow, did not expect to be top of the leaderboard!  Early days though I guess...

    Hadn't played on the site for a couple of months but got the e-mail about this promotion and fancied giving it a shot.

    GL to all playing!

    Out of 37 SNG's i think i think my record is

    Wins = 6

    2nd = 13

    So i think i'm doing alright for my ROI with over a week to go but haven't worked it out yet :)

    Finished 2nd HU to Lambert in my final game of 30 across £1 to £11 stakes.

    8 firsts, 6 seconds = 32.7% by my calculations

    Good luck all.

    Tonight's session was taking a downward turn then I won my last game which got the ROI back on track.

    Annoyingly I was regging SnGs quickly in the lobby and obv regged a Head Hunter without realising until it loaded and I was like wtf. It almost turned out to be a blessing in diguise cos I took one head then got HU with a guy who had taken 2 heads so a win there would give a pretty massive ROI but sadly lost the HU so only got £3 of my £5.50 BI back.

    I've now played 20 games and my ROI is 55.45% .... just gotta hold out a little bit longer.

    Sigh.

    Thirty games done. ROI is a rather pitiful 2.6%

    My one consolation is that every one of the half dozen times I was at a table with TommyD, he went out before me ;)

    Gonna go back into my cave for a while now.

    Played another 2 games since my last post, 1 loss, 1 win so now have a total of 22 games played with an ROI of 57.5%

    8 games to go.... gonna need some sick holding skills. Not gonna play the rest of my games until I've seen another week or so's worth of leaderboard to see what I need to achieve from my last 8 games.

    GL everyone!

    Currently sitting with an ROI of 41.82%   not played my 30 games just yet but my guess is an ROI of 55%+ will be whats needed for a spot so just need some run good in the final few games

    Hi Jonjo,

    Yes, 6-Max PLO & PLO8 SNG's both count towards SKILL & GO.

    At present, PLO SNG activity on Sky Poker is a bit thin, but there are a huge amount of PLO8 DYM's running - around 150 per evening, at a guess - so you might get some of those players to switch across to Six-Max SNG's.
     
    No harm in typing up a short message "Anyone fancy a PLO8 (or PLO) Six Max SNG?" in the chat boxes of a bunch of PLO8 DYM tables. You could use C & P & "spam" 20 tables in 2 or 3 minutes.

    Hey Sky Guys

    Maybe it would be good if at the bottom of the table you could have a "best of the rest" so a board of say the top 10 people who have played 30 games yet but over 10. gives us bit more of a idea what we;'re up against? as it really is a game of chess, if suddenly 10 people pop up having played around 20 games, with average roi's of 50-60% i think youll find everyone on that table will get back to grinding again

    I've posted a bit of an update in my diary Alex if you're interested about how I'm getting on and some guesstimates about what my ROI might look like when I finish 30 games. I'm around the mark your saying above in terms of ROI/number of games but you're in so much of a better position in that you don't HAVE to play any more games (not yet at least).... although you can always try to add a couple more % to your ROI :p

    Every game is a bit scary now cos the difference between losing/winning just 1 game is a huuuuge swing in your ROI.

    Haha yeah ive noted your doing well, i just hope theres not to many more like you out there, above the average and not yet reached 30 that we dont know about, otherwise the leaderboard will have a big shake up!! 

    I kinda like the way it looks atm...;)

    IMO Gazza is the only one safe,if someone can get 68% i doubt anyone below 50% will make the table especially as im guessing at least 80/90% of people who take part in this promo wont have finished 30 games yet

    That means 2nd - 6th (atm) need to get their grinding shoes back on to try and increase their ROI.

    I'd say you probably need 45%+ to get top 6, maybe 50%

    Im gunna wait a day or two to see what kind of numbers people are hitting.

    Undoubtably i'll have to get back to the tables, but if i wai,t at least I can think of some sort of strat which coincides with what ROI i'll need to hit.
