I've been fooling around a bit with online poker for the past year and a half.I think I've come to the conclusion that sng's work for me because they keep me sharp and continue to build my bankroll at a steady pace without much variance.My question is, for those of you who play mostly sng's, how many do you usually play a day?Ten seems to work for me. Just trying to get a sense of the average.

When I played exclusively HU NL I'd do 20-30 a day on an average day. I've been backing off of the HU LHE SnGs lately, but when I play those I'll be lucky to get 10 in since they inherently take longer.

I used to shoot for 15-20 but always end up around 10. Nice round # for me.

I like playing 10 too, partly because i play part time and do other things, and i like playing other formats too.

I don't play a lot of SitNgoes right now but when I did I usually played around 20 a day.

I can get through about 6 turbo sngs an hour on pokerstars, 4-tabling. When I get out of one I immediately open another. It's a pretty easy way to increase your roll because when the blinds get high its completely mathematical and heads up it becomes +ev to push almost any hand, but its boring as hell and super annoying when you bubble like 5 in a row.I don't play them often, but I have heard that the variance is actually quite high. Most people who play them also mix in ring games to even out the downswings.
