gonna pack my shtuff an get ready to say goodbye to my malta appartment for likely a few months. long story will write it up wheni have time.

cliffs: prolly staying in germany/UK/france till april

doublecliffs: gonna grind nova playing cash cuz i didnt grind most of last week due to RLtilt and most of those cash sessions were still me being semitilted/tired so obv my autopilot cash game is tons ahead of my hypers autopilot,

triplecliffs: gonna grind first depo bonus on ps.fr while i m there (tomorrow till 8th). rake is insane there but 740 euros of free money isnt negligable

quadruplecliffs:

you should stick to cash,looks like you have better results then at SNG's.
Do you still coach?and you coach from 2NL too?Been a 9bb/100 at 2NL over 500k hands,until the last 2 months when fishies outplay me like hell.Feel like is time to start climbing the limits after i play 3 years at 2NL,but first i need some coaching sesion.Send me PM if you are available.Tnks

Nearly 200 pages and finally I've read the whole thread.

Sick journey man. Your work ethic is something to be proud of. Well done.

IMO your poker calling is cash games. Reading through it seems your skill set is built to play cash games and learning these games on the side will help you down the road at becoming an all round threat in poker. Correct me if I'm wrong but it comes across as you thinking along the same lines where you most enjoy cash games and recognise it as your money maker.

Either way I wish you all the best whatever way you go. Was a great read through and ill be staying up to date with it. Congrats and GL.

I have been thinking about this quite a bit recently and still am not 100% sure bout what i ll decide for next year. you do make a bunch of pretty valid points but the big counterargument still remains which is shortstackers are killing the game and there likely is more $$$ in the hypers ecosystem than in the cash ecosystem especially fullring which has been my bread n butter game for th majority of this year. i ll finish supernova in cash and will finish my first depo bonus on .fr also in cash and then will sit down and make some serious evaluating

again than you for the kind words glad to have followers like you

fwiw ssfr'ers have said games are the best they've been for 2 years, ss'ers are a problem but its more a case of the issue being solved before it gets too bad.

have u given 6max cash any thought?

its funny cuz all the cashgamers i met in malta (midstakes+ mainly) said the same thing and my results on ps.eu have been pretty ridiculous lately considering i dont really tableselect atm so will have to take that into account for sure

tried 6m on ps.fr but ran like aids and other than that havent played 6m since my deep nl25 disaster in amsterdam where i dropped like 20 BI in a day

also the ramblings about what actually happened in malta i havent gotten around to writing up as it will require a massive wall of text and as of yet i just cbf to mae that happen but i think i will write them up as a part of my yearly recap on sth like jan 1st-2nd and post them along with my plans for 2013 (probly will be posted in parts as lol it will be a MASSIVE wall of text. get ready for a bunch of savers to make it more enjoyable too lol

atm i m trying to reimport all my cash hands into a graph machine so that i can actually post a giraffe in one of these walls of text as atm all i can provide is the cash hands i have in my db (posted in last update)
