JUST WONDERING WHAT IS DECENT IN THE MONEY PERCENTAGE THAT MAKES YOU MORE THAN BREAKEVEN PLAYER!
I HAVE PLAYED 150 TOURNEYS IN PAST 3 MONTHS AND FINISHED 16 TIMES IN MONEY, OUT OF 16 HAVE TAKEN DOWN THE TOURNEY 9 TIMES!
WHICH MAKES MY ITM PERCENTAGE SLIGHTLY MORE THAN 10%.
WHAT IS A GOOD ITM?

A better guide is your ROI. As you could finish in the money 10% of the time and still be making a loss

For example, if you entered a 9-seater $10+$1 SNG at PokerStars and won the first prize of $45, your ROI for that one game would be:
  • Profit = $45 - $11 = $34
  • Investment = $11
  • ROI = ($34 / $11) x 100 = 309%

Perfect.
ROI means return over investiment I think poker brings Nice ROI tax. Off course that have a high risk too. But you need to calculate your roi

20% is considered decent although alot of the best online players cash less but win more often. They may have a itm of 18% but they have a higher roi because when they do cash they normally have a big stack and make the final table.

Not a big fan of the ITM stat, think ROI or $/hr are much better stats to pay attention to.
