    Default SNG significant sample

    I am currently playing $10 SNGs and was wondering what number of tournaments I would need to play to get a statistically significant idea of my realistic expectation. 100?

    I tend to find at $10 tables there are significantly more tight players. On $5 or lower there is always some idiot who calls all-in 3-4 times at the start until he gets busted out.

    100 gives a guide, but I'd say 300-400 for a more genuine sample as well.

    Over 100 a single win/loss can make several % difference on your ROI.
