According to your graph (from the info box), that number is actually $ won/lost (which is probably not very accurate, as others have pointed out). It looks like you won a total of about 2500 chips though.

Grats on the seat!

i guess i did not understand your statement. i thought u were saying basically the chipEV graph is broke hence "chip EV in JP shows you should be down a lot in them"

what did u mean by said statement?

Confused me too. I'm guessing he means TGS's chip EV is low and therefore he should be losing. If that were his true chip EV, then his expected ROI would be close to -5% (pre-rackeback). Small sample and all that though.

i dont know the exact amount of chips needed to be break even, i checked while back but forgot, i think its around 33. so if you play say 500 games you would need to win 16500 chips to be break even in ev. if you have infinite sample and multipliers did not change ev (for sake of this we assume they dont) then how many chips you win is the only thing that you need to determine your ev, that is what i meant by multipliers dont matter when looking at chip ev and see that your not winning enough to break even. its late i hope this made sense if not oh well. not trying to be some cool smart forum guy, only wanted to clarify what i meant

also not beating up on smoothie, he is beast and i am routing for him. just wanted to help little cause he seemed confused

Oh, well, if WSOJs are in there we can't tell anything from chips.

Where can we watch the stream when you do it? If you posted that I missed it.

This makes sense, thanks for breaking it down for me!

No worries, man. I appreciate your help!

Hi! I have decided that I am going to start streaming hardcore again starting this Monday. Generally, I will stream all sessions. They start from around 11a EST and I end around 4a EST. I will be taking 1 hour breaks every 4 hours, and a 1 1/2 hour nap somewhere around 6p'ish. You can find the stream at http://twitch.tv/thegreensmoothie

Sorry for the lack of updates guys, I will work on getting you updated very soon! I am behinddddddddd :/

OMG... So jelllyyyyyy

haha, whoops

OK sooooooo sorry for no update for so long!

Been busy searching for an apartment...found one! It got in the way of the grind a bit, but we're not TOO far behind minimum pace (about 16 hours).

Here's Cash Graph so far this month: On a bit of a downswing



Here's JPG/WSOP Graph so far this month:



Soooooooooo yea...the bad news is that I'm in a bit of a rut at the cash tables- the good news is, I'm starting to figure out the JPG's.

The really good news, is that I think I have also finally gotten a proper layout so that I should be able to keep a steady flow of up to 8 JPG's running while simultaneously playing 16 cash tables.

This should pretty much ensure top payouts in both the beast and sit 'n crush. Maybe this week, maybe not...but certainly starting next week.

As for streaming: Still not quite there yet. Have to workout some kinks and figure out how my final layout will look. I am thinking about streaming without any HUD on twitch, so it will just be webcam, with tables. No overlay or anything. This would make it a ton easier for me to stream, but won't look as fancy. Thoughts?

Guess that's about it - summary of month so far:

Cash Table Hands Played: 137, 485
Rank Points Earned: 67,692
Min Rank Point Pace: 80,000
JPG/WSOP's Played: 848

Cash Table Net: +$322
JPG/WSOP Net: No clue, but down a little
WSOP ME Seat Won! +$12,500
Beast $: +$5,000
SnC $$: +$600'ish
94% to a $4K cash bonus
68% to a $3K milestone bonus
----------------------------------------
Total $ thus far: $18,100 (Tables + WSOP ME) + $3760 ($4K Cash Bonus) + $2040 ($3K milestone bonus) = +$23,900

approx. how many beast pts do you avg per hand and per hour if you don't mind me asking?

also impressive work ethic, keep it up.

Good question woolly, not exactly sure though. I play so many different stakes, different styles, different games, and different table amounts that I never really tracked it. When I'm maxed out, I think I earn around 1K beast points an hour.

Quick update: Started making my move in Sit n Crush!

Hi Kevin, I doubt anyone would care if you played without an overlay or HUD.... Just thankful we would be able to watch your epic epic'ness.... Great job!

PS: Careful, you might break the internet.... Where else would I get free porn??

Would you be interested in some kind of snc bet in july after I get back from wsop?

haha- I'll try not to. As for watching the epic'ness- I'm still not ready to stream yet. I'm having a hard enough time atm tweaking my game for the long grinding hours- I'm going to make this a year long challenge anyways, since getting the 1MM RP's is gonna be real tough since I'm pretty off pace. I will start streaming once I am in full groove mode.

Very interesting! I might- it depends on how I'm doing in the JPG's after I get a sample. I can't go into it being -ev at the tables. Still have some work to do in these, but once I'm there, I would def love to do a prop bet!

Sorry I haven't updated in awhile guys, but I've been dealing with losing at the tables while trying to still get in my points. It's been rough going this last week! I think I lost something like $7K at the tables.

The good thing is that I am full stacking again. I just hate feeling like I don't have enough ammo...so I've been readjusting my game again getting used to full stacking again. It's going pretty good, I think I'm finally a winner in the games again but only time will tell...

I think the biggest problem (and the reason I have been losing at the tables) is because of too many tables. I literally have not been thinking at all while playing...just robot-mode'ing...which just doesn't work anymore. So, I cut down from 24 tables to 16, and I am finding I actually have time to think about my decisions- which is making a huge difference. I'm fairly confident I am a winner in the games again- will report back soon with graphs.

As for pace: we are behind! Since I had to cut back on tables, I am not getting nearly enough RP's/hr to get back to my minimum pace. I'm at 84,271 RP's for the month. Minimum pace would dictate that I should be at 100K. So we are almost 16K RP's behind what I wanted to be my minimum goal- yikes!

Got lots of work to do. Going to sign a lease today for my new apartment. It's gonna be awesome, so once that is done, move-in time starts...gonna be hectic, but once I'm all set, the new environment should be way more conducive to grind. Gonna have my own office so I will probably think about streaming at that point.

That's it for now! I think I'm down like $3K on the tables for the month- not too bad, but way less then expectation! Again, I will update with graphs next post, just don't have the time right now.

Talk soon, hugs and kisses!

what happened to this guy?

smoothie intoxication. Destroyed his kidneys

Prolly doing summer.....

somebody didn't pay his hosting bill

http://masstabler.com/cgi-sys/suspendedpage.cgi

who's organizing the search team

Yeah, while its nice not having him sit my tables it's pretty strange he would go MIA for this long for any reason. Someone who knows his name should probably google him or something

lol after playing hours and hours for months on end some people just need a break especially when its nice weather out.

another reason is, that maybe if he thinks obtaining 5 star general is out of reach this year for him he just wants to cut back on the grinding.

i believe he mentioned he was moving.

that's right he was apartment shopping at one point
