What kind of ROI can a decent grinder say 8-tabling expect at Pokerstars: 18m t, 45m t, and 180m t?


And for a husng reg wanting to add MTTs, what should I play? I'm currently playing the 18m to get the hang of things.
Here's some nice post by JP for you: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/sh...&postcount=169

    Standard or unnecessary push? Also thinking about decent range at this pos and stacksize. ~15% is k or to tight maybe?
    08-16-2012 , 05:59 AM
    ^^ Can't imagine doing anything but push there dbcoop... regardless of villains still to act.

    An exact range is obv dependent on the players behind though, but it should be a lot wider than 15%

    whats going on in the 45er lately experiencing swing never had beofre, any one have similar experience?


    08-17-2012 , 06:05 AM
    ^ 45's are the biggest SnG mystery of all imo, very hard to suss. my swings are always way worse in those than 180's or anything else.

      Yes

      Not an MTT SNG, but hand is not worth its own thread in the MTT section, thats why I am posting it here. $8 Rebuy Turbo

      I actually folded, but would this be a shove for you? Feels kinda thin but than again I think it may be +EV

          Yes. Absolutely fine. You're only 6BB deep and have to shove one of the next couple of hands to not cripple yourself. 22 is a great hand here.
          08-24-2012 , 08:29 AM
          Did you change edge, calling ranges etc.? Super standard shove.
          08-24-2012 , 04:41 PM
          22 with 6bbs into 4 is def a shove. The only reason I can see for Wiz to hate this shove is because we have like 0 FE against the 2 micro stacks. But it's still a +cEV shove if you adjust calling range properly cuz randoms (if they are) tend to call way to tight with micro stacks in these games. gl nh

          Hi, i hope somebody here can help me. I'm running TOI which is a great program. But have a small problem. When i have a table in my grid (which is not locked to stay there) and the hand finishes with a showdown, the relevant table will not move back into the stack. It stays in grid waiting on a new hand. This also happens when we dont have a showdown, but villain folds a hand. My tables only move back into the stack when i use my fold button.

          I run TOI, TN and HM during play. My settings for TOI i VPIP mode
