In the money



Posted Sat Sep 09, 2006 1:33 am GMT by J279
I was just interested to see if anyone keeps stat's and knows what % they are in the money.

I normally play 6 man SNG's and have kept track for the last 20 games and found for me it's currently 25%. Now I just need to find a way to up that figure!

%ITM (In The Money) is much less important then %ROI (Return Of Investment) ...

I use the free S&G tracker site to track my states (when I'm not too a shamed to do so)

Unsure about my stat's (which is REALLY unusual for me), as i'm not playing as many tornys as i'd like.

Getting in the money is one thing, but going deep in the money is something else.

I've changed my prioroties in the last few months. Before if i was near the bubble, i'd hold on for a (minimum) small payout. Now I try hard to get deeper in the money.

Now I get into the money less, but when i do, i go really deep and normally make alot more.

IMO when you get down to the bubble, you have to start stealing a bit go build a stack to get deeper into a tournament, It has worked for me. And i will continue to do it until it doesnt work for me

More agression on the bubble creates more 4th place finishes, but also more 1st place ones.

Therefore your ITM % will decrease, and ROI % will increase, and you will make more money, thus proving that the ROI is the stat you should track, and ITM % is somewhat useless.

oops, i misread, i thought this was a thread about mtts, in that case, i have no qualifications for posting here, as i suck at SNGs
