lol, what's ur SN? not sure if i can pay THAT much attention though

Ok played a little 3. session today ( traffic is so bad, i hate it ).

Still running very poor in the 6.50 ones ( 5/5/4/6/5 mostly crazy beats ) but was able to get some good cashes in the 3.40 ones.

so session 3 summary is:

21 sngs
profit: + 63.80
vpp: 60ish

So day 1 is probably over until i get crazy and do a 4th session and its been pretty rough.

177sngs ( not enough, but couldnt really help the traffic in any way )
profit: +57.30
VPP: 357.33

not sure im gonna update this hard all the time, but i felt like i should start proper. 57.30 doesnt seem to be much if i aim for 5k but if u saw how things were going engine wise im pretty happy to even be in the +
Not to imagine if i should start running like a human being in the 6.50s

The methodology to answer #6 is to determine what is our chip value if we scoop, chop and lose, and then run those scenarios against a powerhouse hand, a medium hand, and a junk hand that can make a low, to determine if the play is anywhere near positive EV.

The methodology to answer #2 is to determine our chip value if everybody folds, assign that a percentage chance, then go through the exercise described above. It's a messy calc for sure, but there is a correct answer.

Yes, it's a lot of effort, but it's better than weak aphorisms.

BTW gl on your challenge and stop telling me im running good when Im down 30 buy ins on the day.

[zuri1886]

so i won a 3k chip pot in a 1.75 one and lost the rest?

U were saying in the chat after u lost to another guy on another table, that "pokerstars hates me, not ur fault".

1 min. later u busted me hitting that 2 outer K on the turn and i simply wrote "pokerstars loves me" just to show u, that there is other ppl running bad. then u got mad on a 3rd table after busting ( not vs me ) and spammed the observer telling me to go fk myself, because i was saying u run good vs me ( which i really didnt, just said "pokerstars loves me" ).
Not good manners there.
But whatever u claim that u like to trash talk, so i don't really mind.
Btw, ran horrible my first session. Last hand was the bubble of a 6 dollar one.
I shove AA24( 5k chips ) from the SB, guy ( 5.2k in chips ) calls from the BB with AQ87 and scooped me. Will post updates later.

See Ramon its just kinda annoying if u run very bad over 350 sngs in 2 days just to hear a guy calling himself the unluckiest player alive, just to hit a 2 outer against u 1 min later

but thx a lot for the gl wishes, i really need them at this point!

Edit wants to say, that i can't help it being up against ur AA all the time in a turbo format
where do u get these from?

[RaiSer_RaMoN]

The reason why I got angry is because you said "Im just going from what I see" and "I have played with you enough" implying that I was lying about running bad. I never complained when you cracked my Aces as a big underdog and I never really typed anything directly to you until you made those comments after I believe I said something like " You have no idea how bad Im running" . Also please stop calling it a 2 outer when the chips got in preflop... where I was ahead. I have about a 5% roi this month, ran above EV 5 days in the last month, have lost 4 of the last 5 days in which I played SNGs and have won once in my last 50+ turbo 9 mans so yes by my standards I consider that running bad and I would not lie about it nor would I lie if I was running good and would be the 1st one to admit it if I was. Also I have you way above EV in my Database mind you its only 6900 hands which does not really mean much. That being said I have no reason not to believe you are running bad at the moment and I hope you can pull out of it.

Anyway I appologize for getting out of line with my language but poker can be frustrating at times which Im sure you are well aware of.

The hands were uploaded from my poker tracker.

[kbza666]

why are you crying on a 200sng sample? wtf..

[norcalduy]

zuri - im insanelee.

[RaiSer_RaMoN]

200 sng sample lol thats funny I played 120 just yesterday and I have played about 2000 in the last month in which I have run bad. Also are you not the guy who made his own post about a downswing in 18 man turbos and I believe that downswing was less than 200 games.

Hypocrite much

[Barbiaux]

Zuri good luck in your adventure without all of us. Also good luck trying to get any volume. As always I am just a little late to the party. I have 5 years of low low volume but and slightly down money. I learn how to make money and they ban us. FML

[dkmpb]

nooooooooooooooooo

[dkmpb]

sad times for us barbiaux

[borzi]

I miss playing the 18-man SNG turbos. Now that I can no longer play. Be fair about my play. Did I suck? Was I O.K.? What did I do right/wrong? Be fair or nasty. I doubt anyone could make me feel worst about no more online poker.

Pokerstars SN-borzi

1.75-6.50 range

Thanks
