Hi guys.
What's the approximate sit and go buy-in equivalent for each cash game stake level? (NL2, 4, 10, etc). Roughly, in terms of hourly earnings and assuming single tabling?
Is competition the same between cash and SnG at the equivalent hourly earnings levels?
Thanks
Good question Ventrolloquist!
I'd say that NL10 is roughly equivalent to playing $5 SNGs as you'd want roughly a $500 bankroll to play each of them. (And similarly, that would make NL2 the equivalent of grinding $1 SNGs etc.)
I believe that hourly rate for a good player and level of competition would be fairly similar between each of these, e.g. you'd find similar opposition and have at least a comparable winrate playing $5 SNG as NL10.
If anyone who plays both SNG and cash agrees or has a different opinion, please chime in!
