Hi everyone .. I just started playing $3,5+$0,3 SupTurbo SnGs on FullTilt .. I am doing pretty fine I guess but the swings are just destroying me .. I would like to ask some regular SnG players if this is OK or I am doing something wrong .. I used to play SH CashGames where pretty much all my decisions were made post flop (unlike in the push-fold stage of SnG) so I dont know if its just the variance or my play ..

Here is my graph, 471 SnGs played

Thanks for any thoughts and ideas ..

PS. Happy new year everyone :-)

I don't see much wrong with 12% ROI, especially if you are able to play so many games. I find there's less variance with turbo, and even less with regular speed sng's.

I'd like to play more games, and more tables but my winrate suffers from lack of experience. Hopefully I'll make it to 4 tabling soon :)

This graph looks pretty normal, i've seen a lot worse swings.

Also, if you want to reduce variance you should play regular sng's, supor torbor = crazy variance

yes those swings are absolutely normal. 10 Buy-Ins are absolutely normal! With a 25-30-BI down (on this limit) you should search for major leaks!
but this graph is nothing spectacular! get used to it ;)


Agree with everyone else, this is perfectly normal. Not that swingy at all really.

I think you are doing great. The swings are not that bad and you have a great ROI so there is no need to get worried IMO. Just don't mind the swings and always look at the big picture and you will big making big $$$ if you continue this way. ;)


Man you are running hot last week. Now he is at 367$ profit ROI went up to 15%. Also as it looks he moved up to 6$.

played 9 000 of those super turbos... i had 2 big downswings of 60BI... you can expect 10-25BI as average swings
