lifetime stats

I’ve been at this for about six months now. 

  • I’ve played 159 $5 SnGs, and I’m 38.4% ITM, with an ROI of… -7%?  Yikes.
  • I’ve played 59 $10 SnGs, and I’m 40.7% ITM, with an ROI of .6%.  (Barely profitable.)

Now, about 80 SnGs in, I was very profitable.  June and July, in particular, were insane.  But looking at these actual stats (particularly, how small the Ns are), can I draw any conclusions at all?  I’m feeling like I’m hitting a disproportional number of 4ths and 5th, but how much of that is due to eliminating my 9th, 7th, and 6th finishes?

Here’s some more raw data:

  • In cash games, I’ve played 194 hours (10,000 hands), and made $89.  At .10/.25 NL (the highest stakes I can really play, no matter what my bankroll), I make about 1BB/hr. 
  • In heads up tournaments, I’m 63-56.  That’s enough to beat the rake, actually.

So I’m not the worst.  (I don’t have a lot of short-handed data, but I think I’m probably less practiced there.)  I can see that there are some gaps in my game, but nothing glaring (nothing like a 100% VP$IP with KQo, or a lot of cold calling… nothing unfixable, anyway). 

On some days, the only number that matters is the bottom line of my Excel sheet.  And right now, it’s showing a $75 profit over the past two months.  All of it bonuses.  Maybe I do suck.
