re: Grinding SNEx2+ in 2013

#3 Slow Progress

March has been a very slow month for me volumewise. I had alot of work at the uni and also been overly tired and sick. Bad timing, but I think I still made all my grades, one to go still and then its grinding time again! I am currently at 213k vpps which is only 13k for the month. I want to atleast end at 250k for the month so I am on pace for a big april.

I have been running better/playing better in March though. My 18man results are picking up a bit, and still dabbling in 6man and 9man with good results. I don't think/hope my good results are the cause of playing very short sessions etc because that would suck. I don't feel like playing better perse, other then picking up one or two extra spots to put in a bet postflop or something like that. There are more things developing for me in my life outside grinding so I'm not sure if I make 1.25M and probably just 1M.

I've played a ridic low amount of hours so far because half of these games are hypers also.



Thinking about putting up a challenge vpp wise/game wist with one or more players, if you interested and have a fun idea, lets discuss it, so everyone can have an awesome april

re: Grinding SNEx2+ in 2013

How about


# games: x*1000 games = x point
ROI: x*ROI = x points
Profit: x*$1000 profit = x points

so if i play 5000 games with 4% roi and 6000 dollar profit i get 15 points. etc, whoever has most wins the prop

something like this a good idea? also, hypers probably won't count right? and profit included with rake back or not. any suggestions to tweaking this are appreciated, but I would like a prop that includes profit, roi and #games.

edit maybe get vpp in there too, as a fourth element or to change for some other, lets hear opinions imo

Profit with rb IMO, adding vpps would be cool too. Agreed on hypers not counting

absolutely no shot for the rest of us if we let your ~1500vpps/hr count towards this lol. I'm down if it stays as quad first laid out & you're probably still a solid favorite tbh

re: Grinding SNEx2+ in 2013

I think its just hard to have a fair system for players with such different games/ different average buying.

Doesn't really matter that much if you play more or less the same ABI like l@p and me but its hard to put you in bhup without one party having a big advantage i think..
