Notice that single tabling with 2% ROI at 30s at 25 g/hr is $15/hr. Def doable.

Only thing is that you'd need to put in a sick amount of study and practice first, get husng.com sub, chadd vid pack, and a coach and put in a ton of work. Like invest 1K in coaching and vids + like 50hrs practicing (at micros to save $) and studying at the very least. Preferably 100+ hours. HU hypers are very tough to learn on your own, especially with only live poker experience. If you jumped into 30s right now you'd probably be like -3 or -4% ROI post rake at the very best--more likely you'd need to play 1 or 2k games to get to that ROI.

Tealize that you want to do something professionally in which you have absolutely no experience. It's about the same as wanting to play chess professionally despite only playing chess with a couple buddies. Your live experience will give you no help--if anything it will probably give you many bad habits and a poor mindset.

Do you really play 25g/h at stars on average (2.4m/game)? :O

Looks like I'm either slow b*tch or my pt3 is f*cked :<

The best way to learn is to watch other regs playing and try to work out why they do what they do and why it works. A huge part of hu hypers is working out player tendencies and how to react to them. Learn the basic math if you want but this is what seperates the 3-5% roiers from the break even regs.

I played one year stt and moved to hu 2 months ago,i have more experience then you and i play at least 400 games each buyin started on the 3$ so i recommend you do the same.

Bunza unique as always

Probably one person in the world who's mom was happy that her son is playing poker, and was encouraging him to play more.

well that about covers it. poker is solved

xleex2 · 02-22-2012, 09:32 PM

what do u mean play your draws fast? My first thoughts were when u have a draw bet FAST. You mean aggressive?

**ChicagoRy** · 02-22-2012, 09:47 PM

He means not to play them passively, so aggressive is correct. Nothing to do with timing.

when single tabling it's somewhere around 25 g/hr, maybe 24--def over 20. Single tabling I'm 2.1 m/h. 2 tabling i'm 2.3m/g and 3 tabling 2.6 m/g

how the hell do you do that

? My avg. game is at 3,24min and I have been single tabling mostly.

I guess there might be a difference in HM and PT. I heard somewhere (not sure), that PT counts games from 1min. So if you are done first hand after 15seconds, HM will count that nomally and PT will take it as 1min

BTW: to OP. 700usd/month is doable even at 15s and I don't think you should start higher than that, as mentioned
