    OK, we're off.

    The various nationalities in my first SNG are:

    Germany (3)
    UK (4 including me)
    Greece
    Croatia
    Brazil
    Canada (2)
    Hungary
    Romania (2)
    Mongolia
    Ukraine
    Poland

    Quite an international field in these SNG's. No Russians of course.

    Games 2 and 3 have added, Finland, Moldova, New Zealand, Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Ireland Norway and Switzerland to the list of competitor countries.

    Can anyone predict what other countries that I might come up against during the day?

    Hmm, UK mate. :D

    It's not the Commonwealth games.

    I guess you knew that and was just joshing?

    Best of luck with this G.

    Not played these games before but I would be shocked if many if any regs have double digit ROI in these games given they will be fairly solvable. Would be interested in knowing the ROI of the top regs in the games.

    Had a disastrous start and didn't cash in my first 5 games.

    Would have probably given up then, were it not for this thread, however I persevered and managed a 1st and two 2nds in the next 5 games.

    Here's the spreadsheet after 10 games:




    Does anyone have a subscription to Sharkscope that can check my games? It's only the $10 SNG's from this afternoon onwards (I play other SNG sats to MTT's, but they're not $10 buy in) I am fairly sure I haven't missed any, but would be good to check as we go on.

    Re new countries, Japan, Dominican Republic, Belarus, Latvia, Austria, Sweden and Guernsey have come into the mix. Haven't seen Mexico yet, I think Stars have Mexican players?

    Any other countries spring to mind?

    Thanks @MattBates , we'll see how it goes.

    How many games do you think is sufficient to get a realistic ROI? Say plus or minus 5%

    Yes, I am always a bit worried about the Brazilians "ganging up" when there are perhaps 6 of them at the table at night. But to be fair, I don't see much obvious collusion, occasionally I suspect something, but not too often.

    My five are Vietnam, Mexico, Luxembourg, Denmark and France?

    Surprised not to see any French yet? Unless STARS don't have a licence in France?

    good luck with this graham
    $10= +20%
    $25= +35%

    ive got subscription bud , but will take a we bit time sussing it out again ha ha, i tend to not go into too much detail on my searches so forgot how. Normally when i do a search on a player i have 8 tables open so just do a quick check on recent history so i dont get timed out on too many tables

    Sent you a message on facebook with the search I think you wanted @StayOrGo

    No idea on sample size to get a decent understanding of ROI. Think there should be some info out there which would tell you that but its not an area I know much about.

    Disastrous 2nd session, 10 games, not a single cash.

    So much for my low variance plan. :(

    France is a segregated marked just like Spain.
