I think 10-15% is kinda standard.

I wouldn't be too worried about this though. If you are showing an overall profit then why would you worry?

If on the other hand your 10% is min. cashes, then we have a problem.

In other news, the OP has a dope ass X22 avatar, and is my new favorite poster, filling the void The Rat left in my heart.

Most of the big name on-line players are cashing around 15%-20% of the time, the key is making deep runs with those cashes and not min. cashing. This is something I have had trouble with, get to the money and go down in flames.

I played with Paul Magriel in a Double Shootout to the Million once.

11-18% seems normal. 10% is a bit low, i guess it's ok if you're ultra lag and often going into the money with a ton of chips.

it depends on what % of the field is cashing right?

if you play a $109 or something and 10% of the field pays.

if you play a $2 or something 20% of the field pays.

so i guess you should find what % you are cashing for a specific buy in

does that round right? idk

I probably would not care in what percent of large MTT's that I am cashing in, what I would be looking at is my ROI on an hourly basis when playing them. Sure cashing on a consistant basis is important and a trend that you want to track, but how much I am making per hour would be a more important factor to me. Obv sample size is important when looking at this information.

On a side note I have been unfortunate enough to have played some live $1 - $2 NL with X22 at both Planet Hollywood and the Venentian. Your best bet if he is at your table is to sit right next to him, that way you do not have to look right at him. When you are across the table from him you will be forced to look at his giant oversized head, with his tongue hanging out and flapping back and forth (disgusting) - And this is by no means a brag post, if you can avoid that dude then by all means due so. Dude also throws trash right under the table and whenever he has an opportunity will bust the quack quack out, evem his freakin raises are $22.
