since we are playing a split game and 18mans
is it worth looking at Net Adjusted winnings?

When a game is still 5 handed a 600/1200, you know the table is tough...



Pretty great spot for Juicy and really sucks to be a shorty.

Wut?

Pretty sure using my own brain is better than using a HUD for 18 mans.

I actually think the opposite is true. Huds are overrated and at times misleading in certain formats simply because you are getting numbers based on to small of a sample size. In formats where you play the same guys over and over again everyday like hypers and cash huds can be very useful.

So did having an HUD cause you to make decisions you otherwise wouldn't have, when playing hypers and cash? If so, examples?

I don't have it running live on my tables is what I am saying. I find it horrendously distracting and find it prevents me from making logical decisions based on the line someone has taken. I'll upload hands if I can be bothered later into HM2. I lost loads of hands when my last computer went bust and did in depth analysis on a lot of hyper regs back then. For 18 mans 95% wait for aces so it's not a biggy.

HUD's are borderline ******ed for SNGs.

Most guys using them prolly increase their ROI's if they just used brain instead

tried the 30 day trial once and never got used to it. I think they're good for tracking your session results (filter by game type, etc) but they're definitely more useful in cash games than tourneys.

Having a 100 hand sample on a player is pretty useless because over the course of a tournament, they'll be tight early on and aggro late. When you average out these #s, it doesn't paint a clear picture of their tenancies.

did not expect so many well known regs don't use a HUD!

I still think it is beneficial, we are playing each other a lot and accumulating a lot of hands. U can filter hands the way you want.
Like:
-only those who were played within the last 4 weeks are shown
-most recent amount of hands (regardless timeframe)
-or even by stack/bb

I personally cant imagine playing without one...

    no clue, I reported them. I just play them because I was on a heater and going for the leaderboard. They successfully destroyed that by making me bust this one. names are by the way: latulatu and cajacajacaja didn't even notice this, but it cannot get more obvious. The result will be: I receive 1.50$ compensation for a potential 150$ plust BotP-Ticket... yay

    Honestly, I haven't played with you enough to really know what your game is. Again, honestly, I had u rated as a good player from what I had seen. And I thought you were a man when I took those notes lol.

    Also, it is much harder to judge a player < $7 stakes and if you read my comments to other (supernova) players here, would you still want me to comment about you?

    for me, any assessment important. I absolutely did not matter what you wrote about the other players. If I'm a good player that does this graph?

    If this is your first 6 months of OH8 play, then yes, the graph is good. Obviously u want to make more $ and faster and I get the feeling you are asking me how?

    Truth is I need to play with you more to know - but I think u played better than me this morning @ $3.50 games lol. Really you need to get into bigger games against better players - $15 and $30 are best.

    I see you have made a number of FTs @ low stakes MTTs. I don't know how often you have played those games but that is very good so far. I don't see any results from the $2 rebuys - do you play that MTT?

    Honestly your results look like a great start for a new OH8 player. When I made my notes on you, I didn't check your stats, I was just going on how I perceived you @ the tables. Having checked your stats, I was right to think you are a good player and could be very good in future.

    I wish you luck and if I can think of anything to help or notice you doing things @ the tables that maybe you shouldn't, I will let you know.

    I started playing poker six months ago. But the fact that I do not have the bankroll to play and find a sponsor, I can not imagine for limits above. So you have to play a little and only SNG 3.5 and micro MTT. You could help me with improving my game? Give any advices for me.

    First advice is that niss (a moderator) will tell you that there is a specific thread on 2+2 for coaching - you are not allowed to ask for coaching advice in this thread.

    You could read a thread I started - "what is your leak" - for a little advice on what NOT to do. If you want free tips and advice, most people on 2+2 would tell you to read posts by another moderator, called "Buzz". You can also watch higher stakes games and see how winning players play.

    Most players here don't have sponsors and started off like you @ micro stakes. You have shown you are capable of winning these, so, maybe next time you make some $s, move up to $7 games? Then when you have won enough there, move up to $15 games, so on and so forth.

    Also from looking at your stats, you do better @ omaha than texas or mixed games. Just stick to omaha (esp OH8) and take the $s

    What happens with my game? What is madness. I do not know what to do with my game. Killing me everywhere and on every. Premium hands do not play at all. How to change the game at least a little bit?
