    Default Scope me I need help/comments whatever

    I hope this is the right section to post. Sharksocpe me my username is "p0gy0" in Pacific. I'm a barely winning SNG player but have only played a small sample size of about 800 games. The month of FEB the profit has been consistent. March and April had been pretty bad (break even). I have not tweaked my play. Is this what you the more seasoned guys call the cold strech? Should I assume otherwise? It breaks my confidence knowing that Pacific is the fishiest site of em all and yet im stucked. Any comments will be appreciated.

    You look solid so far! I wouldn't really call 800 games a small sample size, but it isn't really that large I guess. Keep playing and post some tough hands for advice.

    I agree with leg, post some hands that you were unsure about. Also be aware that it's possible to run very bad at SNGs - 10 game OOTM streaks and 30+ buyin downswings are a standard feature of this kind of game.

    do more of what you did during games 1-500 and less of what you did 500-900 :P

    Lol... as I mentioned in my first post, I did not tweak my game. One thing for sure though I played much more $10 buyins that in the first 500 games. As always, thanks for the replies.

    30+ buyin downswings!!!!??? I thought it could not get any worse.

    Then you've been lucky! Over a sample of several thousand SNGs you will almost certainly experience at least one 30 buyin downswing. That's why you need to ensure that you have a sufficient bankroll for the level you're playing.
