Does anyone else think I should stop playing SNGs  lol

I had no idea that this was happening to me until I checked out sharkscope,  looks like  MTT's may be the way for me to go

    The average stake maybe is the difference? I know its only $2 but over quite alot of games? Play lower sng's?

    Do u find with MTT's u manage to cash quite frequently, but fail to hit the heights/final tables as much as you would expect to??

    Changing gears is important in MTT's, but even more so in SNG's....?

    DOHH

    Thanks for that feedback DOHHHHHHH, ( I''m sorry if I don't have enough H's in your name lol )

    With MTT's I find it easier to play because you have a longer time to play your game.  With the SNGs, and in the main it's DYM, I play, you have such a short time to react that one bad call and your virtually out.

    Funnily enough I have played some smaller stake DYMs and I have found that I can be much more aggressive at the lower level, which has been both more fun and more profitable.

    If I'm being completely honest here ( red Face  red Face ),  I think this shows how much I have been on tilt in the DYM games.  If I lose an £11 DYM I'll immediately play a £22 to try and get the lost money back.

    Actually that gives ma a great idea for the site,  Just as you can restrict the amount of money you can deposit, why can't we have a system that allows you to limit the buy in stake of the games you play.  with a maximum change of once a week, once a month for example.

    ANyone else think it's a good idea.... Or am I the only one that doesn't have the discipline to not go on tilt lol

    That's the thing about them, they are quick and you can fit one in around the rest of your life.  

    Unfortunately at the moment my MTT's are funding my short term fixes lol

    You are showing a +roi, but negative profit, to me this means that you are funding your higher stakes games with profit from your lower stakes games (or is it the other way round?)

    Either way, work out which games ar most profitible stt wise and stick to those.

    Just had a look at your graphs, your £2.50 games show a huge roi of 30% but your £5 and £10 games show a negartive roi of up to 15%


    Stick to the £2.25, £3.30 games and you will be just fine.
