I just start a new goal for myself today that I have to play as many SNG as possible for a month. How many sng should I play a day and a month to determine if I am a winning player at the level I am playing?? I used to play like 80-100 sngs a month but I don't feel that's enough though...

This depends on a lot of factors such as how much time you have to play, how many tables you play at a time, whether you play in sets or continously, ect.

It seems to me that if you've been playing 80-100 sng's per month you should have a pretty good idea whether or not you are a winning player...

You want like 500 games to know, but if you have 10+% RoI over 100, I think you're probably break even at worst.

What type of SnG's are u talking about? 9-10 man or more? I used to play 10 man on stars and play 1 set of 4 tables for 5-6 hours at work a day. Went to 9+ and dropped in roi quit a bit. I know only 6 table as thats the most I can do without making a lot of mistakes and losing a lot of roi. As long as your making money dont go crazy and start up like 10 of em, i'd suggest adding 2 tables and playing for like 100 games. See how you do and if your kicking ass, add 2 more tables. Keep going till you notice that your game is suffering.

I am not doing very well in these two months but I really don't know opening more tables is a major reason for my downswing.
