There's this site PokerProphecy, that basically rates players on their Sit-N-Go stats on various popular sites. Check out their site for 5 free searches. I did a search on myself for PartyPoker and came up with the following stats:
$10 Table: 13 wins / 14 losses / 48.15% wins
Not too shabby. Anyhow, in their guidelines they rate any players with a winning percentage higher than 40% as a pro. I thought this was interesting, for some reason I thought that 40% might be low, I'm certainly not a pro, but I guess by the nature of the SNG with the blinds increasing so fast 40% is pretty good, taking into account the unlucky beats. My stats are probably off since the last 3 $10+$1's that I played I lost. But I'm still happy to see that I'm doing well, I haven't been keep track otherwise so this is a nice way to check up on yourself. SNG's are really fun and I may try expanding to the more occasional $20+$2 or other sites like Bodog.
(PokerProphecy counts a win as just placing in the money, so a "pro" could play 100 $10+$1 SNG's, spend $1100, place 3rd in 40% for 40x$20, win back $800 and still be down $300!...something to think about though I know obviously this will rarely be the case - and I don't know many pros that frequent $10+$1)
