I don"t plat MTT SNGs - I just stick to STT SNGs on stars, and turbos only.   PLaying 6 to 8 at a time, I make profit by sticking to two gears only...... tight as a gnat"s chuff until down to 15xBB, then shove/fold. Works for me - boring, but profitable.

The only reasonable advice I can think of for any SNG formats, is don"t try and play poker - there just isn"t room.

Ditto, it does work, but is incredibly boring! So if you are playing to build a roll follow this advice, if you are playing for fun........play like the Duke! ;)

sigh - I have a strategy but it"s just unfathomable to mere mortals

This was a similar approach I"ve used in the past but I just need to learn that the objective is profit and not poker :)

I always end up straying to the large field MTT"s for my poker fix.

What would you say is an expected ROI for SNG"s then over a long period?  I know the variance can be quite swingy in these but I"d want to try and achieve around 20% if possible.

good luck with setting 20% as an ROI target, particularly if you play STTs.  20% is perfectly achievable in the short term, but over 1000s of games, it"s ambitious. I get something nearer 8%, and keep the volume relatively high to increase the hourly rate.

Well my stats according to Sharkscope;

Stars ROI is 19% over 675 games
Tilt ROI 51% over 366 games

Can"t complain  ;D

Is that all STT, or include MTT?
1041 is a medium term view - see what you have at 5k+ games... ;)
