Anyone ever calculate your per-SNG win rate? Any idea what's a good average to shoot for?

From what I've been told who play regular SnGs and win a good player should be able to average a profit of the buy-in. Ex. If you play twenty 10+1 SnGs you should make a profit of $200. I've never actually tried this but I've heard it from several players.

Not sure who told you this but it's wrong. Most people refer to their profit in SNG's as ROI, Return on Investment. Thus if I had an ROI of 20% I would receive 2 dollars for every 10+1 tournament I played. A good ROI is about 20-30% depending on the quality of players. Making 200 for twenty tournaments would mean placing 3rd or higher almost every time.

I just been there.

SNG's

1. 23rd
2. 5th
3. 4th
4. 35th
5. 4th
6. 2nd
7. 32nd
8. 2nd
9. 1st
10~14 averaged 13th

I found that you have to be very aware of each round who is in the game. When playing with good players I did better. When you have lose fish you have to play tight and wait till you or someone else takes them out.

Pay off was about even.

You have to count the vig. Not counting in the buy-in cost highly distorts one's ROI.
