Unofficial Stars 18-man SNG turbo Thread

Having an absolute killer month with 85% ROI in the 18 mans but it seems every single week I am just barely short of placing. I still can't believe I blew it after getting 290 points in 5 games. I obviously should have switched to the KO games after that start but hindsight is 20/20 isn't it.
It's also a damn shame I don't play more volume cause my last 100 at the 3.50s would score almost 2000 if I was able to put the volume in 1 week.

Anyway I should probably stop derailing this thread because this is only barely related to the thread title but I will probably make some kind of victory post in one thread or another when I pull it off, I definitely feel it coming sooner or later.

Can you tell us your SN?

Sure, just be nice and don't judge me based on my cash game stats lol. I am actually not that terrible losing to the rake not the players at cash but to me I still find that a little embarassing.
Anyway long story short I decided to go for supernova which is nigh on impossible with O8 SnG's so wasted half my year at cash slightly losing before realizing that by the time I got my supernova bonus all it would accomplish was a break even year.
Came back to SnG's a couple months ago and trying to remember why the f#$% I wasted the first 5 months of the year losing money.

And with no further ado, my SN is....

hehe well I aggro it up later in the game but yeah early on I am usually an ubernit. Also, unless you are playing quite late you probably will not see much of me. I mostly play after the missus goes to bed so around 10 pm and later.
Sometimes you will see me earlier and on weekends occasionally during the day.

You're (obviously) not free from danger, but I'd call too.

Since you're posting this hand, I assume disaster struck on the river, possibly something like the 2. If so, please accept my condolences.

Never folding here. This is a $3.50 where players are just bad. 89xx is a decent part of his range, as I see a lot of bad players flatting with these hands thinking they have decent equity (similar to what they would have to PLO).

I also see him doing this with many inferior A2 hands which we are in great shape against. Of his A2 hands, we're only afraid of 34, 48 and 89 and winning against two spades.

I don't wanna run a simulation here because there ranges are so wild, but I'd estimate our equity to be close to 60% here. A good way to find out how bad of a shape you're in is by putting in the best possible hand your opponent can have and see how much your equity is (see below):

Well I don't know about all those other posts but being tighter than Bakyka I turbomuck here

lol but seriously players at that level are bad enough that it can be profitable to call with a2 + any pair unless you have a specific read on villain

Never ever ever folding. Muppets shoving all kind of straights even the nut straight no back up...all of which we are freerolling.
