What is a reasonable ROI in SNG micro stakes on PokerStars?
$ 0.50 ?
$ 1.50 ?
$ 3.50 ?
"Single Table Tournaments
The classic nine-man SNG has relatively low swings, but it’s still very possible to lose money playing hundreds of these games. At the micro-stakes, your goal will be to achieve at least a 5% ROI and you’ll ideally want a bankroll of at least 100 buy-ins."
From the book Becoming a Winning Poker Player in 30 days
Hello Collin,
try again to beat the SNGs and found in my old Books Sit 'n Go Expert Advice in German from you. It is the first edition from 2007 (time is going fast). My question can i still use it. I'm also doing the 30 days training here. Thanks for your answer
Clease
I have played many SnGs and do reasonably well in them, I have found them to be a great way to increase my Bankroll even when I have on some days, lost every game I played, but then come back a day or so later, and finish in the money on every game I play.
Cash games for me have always been a Live event because I am able to get better reads on other players, that are impossible when you play on-line, the small tells like a throbbing pulse in the neck, or a slight twitch in the eye, always give me some information when I am playing Live.
I have been a member of Cardschat for over a year now and although I have cashed in many Free-roll tournaments over the years I have been playing, I never actually won one outright, Come close now and again, but never Top Dog, not until I did your course "How to be a Winning player in 30 days".
Since doing the course I have had some better results and even won a few Free-rolls so for that I am very Grateful to you both, Colin and Katie, keep up the great work, and I will always recommend your course here on Cardschat.
Thanks so much! We're very happy to hear of your recent success at the tables, and greatly appreciate you recommending the course to others.
When the fun Stops, STOP!
The book helps a lot.
I am in a good sequence of results after read your books Maybe I should play the $ 1.50 STT

Hi Clease, While the fundamentals definitely still apply, the game has moved on a lot since then so I would focus mainly on the 30 day course which is designed for the modern games.
Is it possible to earn $ 500 -1000 per month in Sit 'n Goes tournaments?
I see this thread is not active anymore, but I do have some questions.
You (@Collin Moshman and Katie Dozier) have done the 30 days course here on CardsChat, Collin has written some books, of which the Sit n Go one was very well received back when it got published (I have a copy still from back then). On the Hendon Mob I see that you both have played some live tournaments, but stopped with doing them after 2013 (or so it seems)? Don't you enjoy the live tournaments?
So my question really is, are you (still) playing poker for a living? Did you ever play poker for a living? Or was it always a side-job/hobby?
What kind of games and at what stakes are you playing currently mostly and where?
And what are you doing nowadays for your main income?
I like what you did with the 30 days course. Genuinely something I would recommend to newer players or players that want to go beyond 'just playing' and gut feelings.
Oh, ok. Thanks for your reply.They are no longer active on the forum.
Oh, ok. Thanks for your reply.
Is there any specific reason for that?
CardsChat is still using and promoting the course they made for CardsChat right?
