Going to play the Double or Nothings
Planning on playing 100 games
Will keep you updated

So...

Ok here are some stats for you:
Played 18 games at the 5.20 level
Won 14
Lost 4
ROI = 49.57%
Profit = $46.40
I'd say this is pretty good
What do you think?

Have made a couple of mistakes but have been "unlucky" as of late.

Alright I'm finally done. Had some bad runs had some good runs. Here are the results.
  • 100 games played
  • 61 wins
  • 39 losses
  • Total Profit = $90
  • ROI = 17.31%
Overall I'd say these are profitable. I started off 3 tabling then switched to 5 tabling. Not very difficult at this level but it seems like the competition improved over time. I also feel like overall I got sucked out on more than statistics say I should have (bad variance) so you could probably have a little bit better stats. Maybe 70 wins and only 30 losses. If anyone else does this let me know how it goes.

Hey Unstoppable4, here are may stats so far. First off, these are all the DON I've played so far. Second, most of these are the 5.20 turbos, but not all of them.

* 48 games
* 29 wins
* 19 losses
* total profit=46.30
* ROI = 18.25%

I'm running about the same as you. While I feel at times like you that I'm getting bad variance in the all-ins(AQs beaten by T2o,OUCH) I have to remember my share of sucking out. I'also agree with you the competition has improved. Overall these are a grind but profitable and I will continue to build my small bankroll with these. I'll let you know when I get a 100 in. I just do a couple of these a day. Not much for 5 tabling.

Nice Work unstoppable, at least you got some profit.

I play this games a couple of times in stars and also in Hollywood.

But, looking the numbers i dont know if is really profitable, you play in the 5.20 limits, so if play 100 games invest $520, winning 60% for only $90 of profit?, ummm i dont know, it looks too much investment for so low profit.

I wonder how much can be made in 100 games of the 10 or 6 people normal sits :confused:

Maybe that can be your next challenge :)

Ok guys. I'm trying this one again at the 10.40 level with about a 300 dollar roll so if it starts off bad I may have to go back to the 5.20 games but if it goes good throughout the 100 games then I will probably move up to the 20.80 level. Anyways just started and won 2 out of first 3. My goal is to win 64 out of the 100 games. All feedback is valued and appreciated.

p.s. - If anyone wants to do this with me we can make it a friendly competition. Just post on here if you want to compete for bragging rights.

I havent found these "Double or Nothing" Sit -n- Go's at FullTilt. Do they not have them yet or am I just missing it?

There are no DONs on Full Tilt, and as far as i know, they have no intention of adding them.
