re: ARNOTRONIC'S ROAD TO SNG GLORY
Again not a great day.
I won an ante up mtt though. How are you supposed to play these things? Haha.
I'm am tiling around 12 tables now and I feel like it's making me tired. Maybe it would be better to stack the ones that are in the early stages and don't require special attention, any ideas?
Result: -85,09
Roll: 704,39
Hours played: 8,5
Games: 93
Again not much of a point in putting a graph up because HEM2 chooses to ignore my mtt winnings.

re: ARNOTRONIC'S ROAD TO SNG GLORY
I'm done for today.
Shipped a small field 2.2 mtt today
. Also shipped my first 4.50 180 man
.
I'm running absolutely terrible in the 2.50 turbos. I mostly bubble or mincash them and when I do FT one I typically lose a flip, KK<AQ etc.
Result: +183,36
Roll: 888,29
Hours played: 8,5
Games: 85
Why do I have HEM2 again? It's ignoring mtt winnings like a plague.
Way to make me feel good about myself
I have been loving spanish guitar music whilst I'm playing:
Clickety
Also discovered "Johannes Linstead" today, loving his music as well.
edit: I played one stack of 12 games today, using TN's hotkeys to put aside tables for important decisions/action.

re: ARNOTRONIC'S ROAD TO SNG GLORY
Gl sir.
Subbed and following along. I use placemint to arrange my tables. 2 screens with 4 stacks - one for 3r 180s, one for freezeout 180s, one for MTTs and one for 18s/45. Then I have Table Ninja hotkeys to set tables aside on the second screen (in four slots) if I'm deep or want to follow a hand. Works really well.

Thank you sir.
Sounds good. I've tried to set up placemint a couple of times but I can't make it work

re: ARNOTRONIC'S ROAD TO SNG GLORY
I think that schedule looks fine but you should definitely play some satties to stuff as big 11/big 22 etc. Field is super soft

re: ARNOTRONIC'S ROAD TO SNG GLORY
Man man man, the 2.5 180 mans are NOT treating me well. I'm on a ~ 160 buyin downswing in them over the last 280 games or so
. Hope it's not my game and just variance.
Today was a hell of a grind.
Result: +42,71
Roll: 913
Hours played: 10
Games: 111
Still don't know why I have HEM2 haha.
I might make Goldstar this month for the first time ever and getting close to a 1k bankroll!

re: ARNOTRONIC'S ROAD TO SNG GLORY
Today was even more of a hell of a grind. I've put in a ton of time/volume.
I have to be honest and say I'm pretty let down by my results, even though it was a winning day I felt it could've been waaaaaaaay better. Had a slightly winning day in the 2.5 turbo's for the first time in a while though, in b4 upswing I hope
Going to take a day off or a day and do something else than just grind soon
. I feel I'm becoming kind of isolated from friends etc.
One hand which I think I played really well in a FT:
Poker Stars, $4.10 Buy-in (1,000/2,000 blinds, 200 ante) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 3 Players

Thanks for all the advice, you're the MTT warrior!
Might be a good idea to cut sessions indeed, or just play one shorter session.
Good luck!
