From this graph I can conclude: 1. You are playing low levels 2. The number of players of MTT isn't too big 3. You are taking profit (good!) You should probably post the EV as well in order to analyze fairly your progression.

You shouldnt even care about your results with a sample of less than at least 1K games (I know what I'm talking about when it comes to thinking too much in shortterm samples )... This sample does neither say anything about your game nor your longterm winrate. Just saying,no offence,keep going

Yeah fair comment, I'm not carried away or anything.
I've won big tournaments before this is kind of a new start now I have my groove back.
But I'm playing really solid and making good runs in bigger tabled tournies and cashing regular on 2 table SNG's.

Since you mentioned 2-table-SNGs,I'm also playing them (on pokerstars),I've uploaded my $15 18 man SNG graph (filtered for the last ~3 months),just so that you see what kind of variance you can expect in terms of buy ins. It's pre rakeback tho,if rakeback was included you could consider all values be higher by a few hundo's You can see at one point I dropped 120 buy ins from peak,which is a not often happening extreme,but certainly possible,even in that SNG format that should have pretty low variance (flat payout structure etc). MTTs of course have even bigger variance,just shows what you should be prepared for

No matter what your buy ins are if your graph goes upwards then you are in the right track. You can change them progressively, and then you will need to try and stay on track keeping the same lines as this one
