TBH i havent really noticed much fishy action going on at the DON's since Chinese players were banned from playing together. Although i am still a little suspect and prob always will be. I have these players in a different colour to try keep an eye out for anything weird.

Sickoooo. I played the $52 DoNs at the start of the year to try on a supernova quest but all the cheating sent me on a sick downswing and I gave them up.

it aint the best way to be a SN but easy to reach with Dons 50!!! You'll have more ease with the 104!!!

Sorry i haven't posted any updates in the last few days guys. My grandad passed away last Thursday and had a golf trip over the weekend. So was a really bad start for me both volume and profit wise. Here are my figures for the 1st week:

Games: 583
Hours: 18.2
Profit: -$2320
VPP: 369,888 (+9,810)

So the 2nd week is now finished for me. Another poor week volume wise as i was out of action for half the week with family stuff. So im now basically a week behind pace and hope to maybe catch some of that up in the next 2 weeks. Honestly tho with Xmas coming up and all the BS that goes with it this is not looking too good. But will keep at it. I think if i can get in maybe 2 solid 55hr weeks its still achievable, so heres hoping.

This weeks results:

Games: 698
Hours: 19.8
Profit: $1232
VPP: 382,377 (+12489)

Overall results:

Games: 1281
Hours: 38
Profit: -$1088
VPP: 382,377 (+22,299)

Another week down and its now looking like im not going to reach the 600k VPP mark considering i only got just under 40hrs this week and i need like 55 hour weeks from here on in. With Christmas and other **** coming up i just dont think its going to happen. But im still going to push for the 500k mark.

So here is my last weeks summary. Alot better profit wise and i managed to clear about 8k in bonuses so thats always nice.

Games: 1323
Hours: 33.5
Profit: $3660
VPP: 407,205 (+24,828)

Overall Results:

Games: 2604
Hours: 71.5
Profit: $2572
$EV Profit: $5350

VPP: 407,205 (+47,127)

I guess i depends on what kinda ROI ur making. If ur making 5% + over a decent sample id prolly be pretty confident to move up the the stakes with 50-75 buy ins. I cant imagine the $20's being much harder than the $5's. If your making <3% ROI I wouldnt moved up with under 100BI's. Hope this helps. GL

Hey I'm curious as to which software you're using to track your progress. PT3 or HEM? What %ROI are you averaging at the $100's and $50's? Thanks and good luck.

Im using HEM. At the moment since i started this thread i seems to be running horribly at the 100's with 1.5% and great at the 50's with 6.5%. Overall since i started playing the DON's im running at about 2.5% for the 100's and 4.5% for the 50's. Although i have put alot of work into my game in these last few months and feel ive made some good progress so im hoping to increase on these figures.

Dude, I ve played a lot of dons 50 and 100 aswell but I do not know how I can see my leaks and how to improve on my game.
Can you tell me a little bit about that? Especially see how I can find my biggest leaks.

I give you a hint, last time I saw you on the table, I told you I saw your thread on 2+2 and wished you good luck. Maybe you remember.

Thanks man.

and Please: if you see bina and superking, KILL THEM ON THE GAMES, I hate them!

Hey Alohadje, think i remembet who you are. Sorry i didnt really reply, was just playing too many games at the time.

As for improving ur game, I dont really wanna give too much away, especially in a public forum. But to give u an idea i use SNGWIZ and HEM. But gotta be very careful how and when u use the WIZ in DON's cos in alot of spots its practically useless due to the limitations of ICM.

Everyone seems to hate superking, lol. But he tends to show me alot of respect at the table so i dont really have a problem with him. Also there are parts of his game i find really exploitable.

Thought about SNE next year wayne? Any tips for handling lots of volume on a daily basis, like how you get into a grinding mindset or something? Do you listen to music while you play?

Yeah, definately going for SNE next year. Might make a thread for it. Hoping to make around 200-250k including RB. As for handling high volume I think the best thing that works for me is to set daily/weekly goals. I aim to put in 40hours/week, and i try do it in 5 days with each day having 2x 4 hour sessions. And yeh i need music while i play
