Ola gents,
Off to a late start today, woke up super late then jumped right into railing phishman deep in the 55 2x. Unfortunately he got 16th
, gg buddy.
Have put in 1 sesh of ~150 games, just put some food in the oven, gonna eat and study a bit and then get back on the grind. Today might be a bit of a fail since Saturday night traffic is usually dismal, might just relax once games drop off tonight because iirc I tried grinding last Saturday night and I only got Fing 40 games in 1 hr of loading; will just see how badly they drop off and decide.
Gl this weekend everyone!

JOSH how do you do it?! Wish i had the grind ability that you possess, I'm up to 15 tables of hypers now, but you 24 table somehow. so unreal bud. I noticed when im playing MTT SNGs i can 30+ table buy my games starts to lag/hang, if I can 30 table those you must be able to 40-50 table them. I doubt you play them often, do you?
How do you split up your day, grind the fk out of hypers then play some MTTs + a smaller amount of hypers for the big BINK?? I mean after you've "earned" a good amount of VPPs you'll feel good, regardless of daily results. Or perhaps, you grind both variations from the start? I would assume your hourly is highest when your only playing one form of poker, what do you believe?
oh btw, more thread savers IMO
Haha hangovers are the worst, luckily I don't get them often no matter how much I drink. Good to see you're up to 15 tables, I think there's only a handful of reg's at hypers that do more than that. And yea, if I'm just playing like 45s/180s/mtt's I can 40 table with ease, 50 gets a bit tough but I don't really play any MTSNG seshes anymore
In terms of my own schedule/setup, I've been trying to find the right balance of how many/which MTT's to add because I do grind my hypers and MTT's together and won't really ever change that. I tried mixing in some reg speeds with turbos and the reg speed's just don't work at all imo. I think I've finally got the "right" set of MTT's to add with my sessions though.
9:30: $54 TKO 20k
9:30: $11 turbo 20k
10:15: $25 hyper 2.5k
10:30: $16.50 turbo 12k
11:30: $4.40 turbo 10k
12:00: $5.50 turbo 20k
12:30: $27 TKO 4k
1:15: $25 hyper 2.5k
2:00: $7.50 turbo
2:30: $16.50 turbo 27k
2:45: $25 hyperr 2.5k
2:45: $11 turbo 10k
3:00: $27 TKO 10k
3:15: $44 turbo 15k
5:30: $13.50 TKO 7.5k
5:45: $8.80 turbo 8k
6:00: $11 turbo 8.5k
If I grind way later into the night, Id add the $5.10 hyper, $23.45 hyper, $27 TKO and $27.50 turbo 8k
edit: forgot the 1r 3x and 2x turbos, I add those 3 in as well
I think this is a good combo of very high value (soft field+good payouts) and also will keep that MTT table count down, it gets tough if I hit 4+ mtt's up at once.

While it might be true that there is an average of 4-5 regs/table at some points of the day, I've never gone a single day without seeing a couple of handfuls of completely random people accross a set of my tables. Also, one thing that is especially true at ST's/Hypers is that players that are good at other forms of game will drop in from time to time, and while these people don't tend to be huge losers, they are frequently not quite as solid as somebody that grinds the same game every day of the week.
Josh has to play like 155,000 games to reach SNE. This mean's he has to invest like $5,000,000 to make a 6-digit profit. It's a really good deal in the sense that he has a high rate of success given his skill, but when you look at things from this perspective, it's not too difficult to see why a handful of guys will be able to eek out a nice profit when the have to invest a tremendous amount to do so.
Good post Zack, will let you handle any other responses on the topic imo
