Message: [QUOTE="perrypip, post: 5700256, member: 432777"] The mathematically correct way is to collect stats on your play, calculate average win rate, standard deviation and standard error etc. From that you can put a statistical confidence interval on whatever your true win rate is. To make a long story short it can take about 100,000 or so hands to be 95% sure you're a winner, more if you are close to a break even player and less if you are a strong winner. Or maybe about 2000 SNG's. Basically its alot, like a 1000 hours of play. If you don't have the patience you can use a bankroll management strategy, i.e. go up when your bankroll goes up enough to justify playing at higher levels. That way you get practise in a tougher game too. If you really are able to win at a higher level why spend a 1000 hours using stats to show you beat a lower level, right? Just be prepared for downswings don't bankrupt yourself getting over confident. [/QUOTE]
