Hey Sushi Cowboy,
Congrats on hitting the $1000 mark. So what's your plan now?

Dan,
I'm still formulating my next step but one thing for sure is that I'm not going to cash out. I want to leave everything in the account for now and keep building it up. I feel that the $5 Super Turbos are still plenty ripe for the picking and I want to keep playing those for now. I actually still don't have a large sample set to determine my long term earn rate in that game so for now it's going to be staying the course. I do think that I should get another carrot in front of me so that I don't donk off my roll like the last time I didn't have a target to shoot for. Right after crossing the $1000 line I looked at my chart and tried to extrapolate the line to see what I would have at Labor Day. Keeping in mind that $75 of the jump came a freeroll and that a lot of the early growth on the chart was from the mid-year bonus, I came up with $1250 as a number to try to reach by Labor Day which is a slightly faster curve than the pace I originally set.
I plan to move up to the $10 Super Turbos at some point now that I have 100 buy ins for that game. But I am going to crunch numbers and review hand histories to figure out exactly how I'm currently doing. Long term I want to find the equilibrium point between game difficulty and buy in so that I'm playing at the optimal stakes to maximize my hourly rate but that is a discussion for way down the line. For now, I'm going to keep plugging away at $5 ST SnGs for now and establish a baseline before moving on to anything else.
Thanks for writing.

I would be interested in your hourly win rate. Mine is $4.16 per hour in Omaha high cash games before rake back. Roughly I have 3.5X as many winnings after rakeback vs. before rakeback.
ReplyDeleteSo I think I am clearing 14.5 per hour. This is after 63,000 hands or so. I am playing almost exclusively $1/$2 and 1,2, or 3 tabling.
Sushi, sir. How many ST SNGs did you play, and what was your ROI? I've played 88 so far. Cashed in 37 of 88, and ROI is 34%. Sustainable?
ReplyDeleteGood questions. I don't have the latest numbers in front of me but I'll put together a blog post digesting the results during the Cake 1000 challenge.
ReplyDeleteIn the heat of the madness I had a 21.4% ROI, 42% ITM, and a $13/hour run rate which are all just too high. The fact that both Adam and I are having strong runs leads me to believe that these games can sustain a higher than typical ROI but our numbers mean absolutely nothing until we have literally thousands of games of data to work with.
