just stay in bed imo.

Slept for about 4 hrs, wanna get back on my morning sched so todays gonna be a light day with me going to bed not too long after American Horror Story so I can be up by 4am and on the grind.

Gla today

Hey, I'm backed so I personally dont have any BRM I have to follow. I wouldnt want to play the $30s though without 12k, the swings are sick as hell. If I were playing higher (as in up to 100s), the swings could get as bad as ~50k

In terms of my 2012 goals, a lot will depend on if they add higher BI's. If they do end up adding higher than $30s, I want to go for 2mil+ vpps, if not, my goal is 1.25 mil or 1.5mil. SNE itself is worth 107k, 1.5mil is worth 164k. I don't really want to have real monetary goals, but starting off with just a 6 figure yr as a base goal is probably fair enough.

Lmao srsly. Luckily todays gonna be a short day

i dont understand the whole backing/staking thing :P
isnt it better to play without spliting profits with someone even if that meant moving down...
like 2k$ is enough to play 7$ hypers, you can get volume every time of the day, at 5% roi and 100games/hour, you get like 45$ with rb, you would probably get way more games cose they load super fast....
so in like 300 hours (2 months of hard work) you get 15k profits, excluding 3k$ living costs, voila, you have your own 30$s bankroll.

i only get staking when someone is super good and whant to play like 10/20-25/50 NL , and somehow busts (and need like 150-200k bankroll), but when you need 10-15k which can be done in pure hard work/quantity of games, it never made sense to me

Not gonna get into the whole stake thing, but no, a stake is certainly better for me because I can pretty much play any BI's I want to and I barely give up any of my profit. Also I'm not rolled to have a 50k downswing at 60s/100s wen they add them next yr, not that many people are. If I'm going to get SNE, i CANNOT move down, so no, it's not optimal for me

When you put in sick volume like me, you can get deals where you give up <20% of your overall profit including the RB, not gonna get into specifics of my deal but it's in the <20% cut for my backer

thats cool ty for clarifying.
I've seen you mention somewhere that 9man hyper suck, and 'arent natural like 6man'. I found them easier for me cose i have 3-4year experience with 9-10-18max sngs, and when playing 6max there were plenty of bubble spots where i simply didnt know what to do, here at 4 handed bubbles I feel like fish in the water

hoping they add 15$+ next year, cose that would give me a chance to hit like 300-400k vpps
i only get about 60games/hour cos i dont like to play continously
at 6man i loaded up 15-16 - it takes 15 minutes to finish
at 9man i register to 30-35 games - it takes ~30 min to finish (9mans load much longer vs 6man)

my goal for Dec is to place somewhere in top20 yearly leaderboard, but its not looking great, i played only 15 hours last 10 days, damn i am lazy, gonna need like 60-100 hours moreeeeeeeee

What time zone you in?

I've been flirting with the idea of waking up earlier myself.

btw, I cut down my tables to 14 (from max of 16), i feel like I don't entirely know the ins and outs of hypers to play more yet. I look at stats often to get reads in close spots that I will probably know automatically with more experience but aren't quite there yet. To be honest, I'm happy with that though, in just 3 weeks i went from 6 tiled to 14 stacked. I have no ****in clue how you play 20+ with MTT's, you're a freak bro. How long are your sessions? I was doing 80 min timed ones with sensei, but now cut them down to 50 mins, I think my play is much higher when i play shorter sessions with small 5-15 min breaks.

win big mill retire buy 5000 shares of the packers unretire grind hypers

^awesome

sounds good to me!!if i win, i will give u like 100 shares for the idea..

Such unreal runbad for me, wake up at 3:20 am, on the grind by 4am and boom, Pokerstars lagging so badly I can't even play. Not sure why, internet running fine. Gonna reboot in a sec and try again. Gonna be super pissed if I lose even more time after taking yesterday off pretty much besides a few MTTs



Yea 9 mans are just really boring to me, 9 man hypers are just cancerous :P. Glgl in December!

I'm on PST. And I definitely agree with you on the session length topic; I tend to register for 50-80 mins pending how I'm feeling and then I run em out and take a break; my main problem then is that I spend too much time on skype and instead of it being a 15-20 min break it turns into 1 hr.

Lmao +1 to Ruse, thats awesome; btw congrats on your live score unc, wp there

Thx man, hoping that my level of dedication increases as I've been lazy lately

Being the hyper sicko you are why do you not mix in some of those hyper satties?

Meh, running pretty poorly again today but pleased with my volume. Have done 2 sessions so far today and planning on 2-3 more 1.5-2 hr sessions pending how I'm feeling.



Solid week so far



Mainly because I don't know hyper sattie ICM and also, I personally can't mix other variants of STTs in with my regular 6m hypers well.

That's how Jorj95 reached SNE in 3 months....

eww...

slowmobarf.mpg

Sorry, I didnt mean to mix in during your regular 6m hypers sessions (bc I see the problem here) but split your sessions between those and your regular grind.

Fair enough, even I thnk it wouldnt be a problem for you to figure their ICM out if you wanted to do so. I was just curious on your opinion about them because I am playing a few of those 235 FPP hypers for the 10A Sunday Storm atm and they seem to be really good value and considering to play some of the normal hyper satties in the future.

So I just wanted to ask why you are not playing them with your huge knowlege/experience in hypers.

Yeah, that was in 2008 when I made 3 million VPPs right?

I don't think Jorj reached 3 million, that was Kevin Thurman (WizardofAhhhs) he did it 2010 I think

Jorj was the fastest in 3 months to get SNE, then AZNTRACKER did it in 2 months this year..

Jdawg, see if you can get SNE by Jan 31 You'd be a bigger legend than you already are

Jorj reached 3,000,010.00 VPPs in 2009 (not 2008 like I originally thought), WoA made last year 3,055,385.53 VPPs to broke the record

@Jdawg: Sorry for the derailaments

I wouldnt get enough vpps/hr to play them anyway unless i was playing the ones to the mil which are completely dead; I think theres like 3 regs winning pre RB at them (acoimbra and a couple others that idr sn's of)...don't really wanna play them tbh with that variance

HOOOOOOOOOOOLD,could be my 5th time for the year.Doubt it will ,but 5 for the year would be sweet(cause i'm a part time player)

holddddddddd

sickness, gl sir!

How is EV calculated in terms of $ for SnGs?

I
C
M

Meh 130BIs below EV, not too shabby IMO. Keep up the volume and don't worry bout the non 50,000 game results. Could post my graph of 180 ABI's below EV from last month, but then I'd have to follow it up with the one that shows me 100 BIs above EV this month. BTW, you're going to play 200,000 games in the next 12 months, the swings can get much uglier which you know, hold that head high. Nice volume, bra, keep it up.
