Thoughts on playing sitngos or something to improve in lategame/midgame mtt spots? I only play sundays/sometimes saturdays and don't learn as quick as I want and a full mtt session is so long.(want to try live events eventually). SNG difficulty seems really underrated by most (as in lolsngs), but looks really really hard to me, esp ICM
Looking at this thread often, great stuff here.

u can call the icm hard if you want but compared to (non cap game) cash, sngs are still way easier and its not close. but yes if you don't know much about icm sngs will probably help you in general.

Finally heat a heater, hopefully it keeps up for the rest of the day and I don't end up giving all my profit back like I did yesterday . Gonna take a look at a few hands and shower and get right back on the grind.

Yea +1 to Claydol but I also agree with you Xereles because there are people who basically make fun of people who grind SNG's for a living saying that anyone could do it and make decent money...it's really not that simple.

I'm trying to decide what you'd want to play SNG wise that would help you the most though; I mean STT bubbles aren't really the same as MTT bubbles; what would help you the most is 180's but I doubt you want to sit there and grind out sessions of 180s just to get some practice with ICM spots near bubbles/ft's.

Btw now that you hit SNE, what have u been playing besides weekend mtt sessions, or just relaxing? Miss your pg&c thread tbh

Trying to study since I don't have balls enough to drop out yet.. :/ only played a little bit, 5 exams this month. Also spent 2 more weeks in thailand for the fun of it which was great.(but the flighttime kills me). Nice graph/day.

hi, don't want to hijack thread for this but I really don't think this can be true(at least not past 3 months), I had a ~2 month period after summer where I said some bad stuff but only to people whining/when other people start. Last three months or so I feel like I've improved in that by a huge amount, I typically often don't even read the chat now, pretty sure whatever I say tilts me more than I tilt others

Really don't understand how you can cope with the swings of these hypers, lol. Props to you for pumping out volume etc when running way below EV.
