thanks, sounds good!

This will be my best year yet!

Reigniting this thread might help winning even more, hello all. End of last year I played a lot of 15s, got an Exclusive Challenge with effective 40% RB when I generate 3000$ rake for Stars. Managed to do so, grinded a lot of spins the last two months, 15s and 30s around 50/50, crushed them, had a few hyper and BB Series Scores.

Spin-Max-Stats this year



To my surprise, this graph is accurate when it comes to $$$.



Heating like crazy. Of course I hit some golden multipliers, bricked some, cashed some. Nothing to spectacular but I might start posting highest Multipliers of the session again. I found out that sixtabling is my sweet spot, so I'll just keep doing so.

Right now I received a second Exclusive Challenge for another 1.2k$. Additionally, Platinum Madness and upgrading myself to Black Chests I think I receive around 55% rakeback at the moment which is amazing. Will see how I approach poker after finishing the challenge, next step is to 100% play 30$ Spin Max and shottake upwards, add All Hyper-Turbo MTTs with a BI of 5.50$-82$ and prepare my roll and myself for a juicy SCOOP. Might ignore Spins for duration of SCOOP entirely and just play MTTs. Road To PSPC Hamburg has been announced for next month which I will be attending with multiple bullets. Three-Day 200$ Buy-In Event with 4 Day Ones and a Platinum Pass for the Winner on Top. Apart from that I will start planning several short vacation & poker trips soon, mostly within Europe. First stop will probs be Italy or Scotland, TBA.

Thursday I'm off for Carnival in Cologne, six days no Pokers, which is why I have to get the extra volume in right now to finish RB-Challenge in time.

That's it for now. Right now I'm on 100k$ year pace, which would be beyond my wildest dream without hitting the 1/1.000.000 multiplier.

Thanks for reading and GL to all of you

HOLY

CRAP

Hello there!

1st day back in the PGC streets, more rungood coming my way: Managed to hit a +1000$ day with solid Spinmaxaction.





Managed to get into a 82$-Hyper Final Table 11 Big Blinds deep, just to have my very first Hand AK crushed by QQ, at least Villain took out two smaller stacks waking up with AKo & AQs simultaneously same hand, so I took 5th place for a score shy of 400$.

That's all my volume this week. Table tennis match tonight, we're pretty much through in our division and will be #1 by the end of season. Hitting the train tomorrow and the degening will commence. Will have to find a way to cure my 100% guranteed hangover & sickness next Tuesday.

#1 tripreport!
#2 did you ever try those wacky "hangover" shots ?

Back from my little vacation. Went out 2 days and 3 nights and experienced tons of night-out-classics and additionally some cherries
on tops, namely girls and weird acquaintances which can only occur on carnival

That's pretty much what the city looks like for some days in a row, everyone dressed up and trashed af. Open house parties whereever you go, supermarkets
transforming into drinking stations with full streets and of course overcrowded clubs beginning at around 2pm.

Had a +500 Session in the morning one day before we went out, today -300 so far. To get my 1.2k RB challenge done I'll have to put some volume
in but that's the plan anyway. Hangover is gone and I do not feel any sick so aiming for A-game for the next few weeks.

Never tried and also don't want to, need to feel the punishment of my alcohol consume so that it doesn't get in my system to regularly.
Either drink only a few before a grind or don't grind the day after, that's what I'll stick to (with the exception last weekend)

Going for my next session when PStars downtime is over and got a tabletennis match later, ready to crush!

When I read the first post, I expected this to be another failed gimmick game thread, I was wrong Subbed

Welcome!

Won the TT-match as expected, managed to get out of todays -300$ hole by mostly breaking even for 100 Spins but hitting a 40-40-480 3-max and binking the big one! Here's to a successful weekend. Tomorrow I'll be meeting up with my brother to plan booking a Iceland vacation in fall which apparently is Aurora-Season. Anyone ever been there that time of the year?

G'night my friends, tomorrow 200 Spins, casual 6k in buyins

Done for the day, almost 200 Spins done. Played ten 25$ Spins for an extra Platinum Madness Roll, shipped 9 of 10 for a good amount. Also hit my next chest RB plus a Platinum Madness Chest for 100$ in total, okay boost unfortunately no Platinum Pass in it. Hit a little negative swing for the second half of the session but ended with a solid ship:
+450$ -> -500$ -> +400$ are the daily swings I seem to have to endure as a 30$ reg right now, will get even swingier on the way 100% but that's cool!


No cashout option available.

Was a fun ride, three more days of platinum madness, have to get 650$ RB in for one more chest (somewhere around 75$ EV excluding 1,5% chance of Platinum Pass), will be doing so and might enjoy a day off next monday! Also I just booked my ticket for the PSPC Hamburg tournament mid March.

Hitting the restaurant with brother now!

Hiya!
I lacked a little volume the last three days due to hitting a little stoploss. -1000$ from Friday and Saturday together only playing 30$ spins

Today I wanted to have a chill MTT session, managed to end 200$ up after 20ish tournaments and binked a Road to PSPC satellite for the 200$ tournament I registered for 2 days ago will have a chat with the casino tomorrow if I can somehow reverse my first booking or just have to go with two bullets. Anyway, will continue the grind tomorrow and hope to turn the tides, will go for a few 15$ spins to have a bigger edge tomorrow!

February Summary

So my February was mixed when it comes to my goals:
• 1848 Spins: Way below my desired volume. 1k Spins a week would be what I want to acheive longterm. Ive been on a short holiday for six days, so taking that into account I have a little excuse, still averaging only 600 Spins a week of play.

• Study: I researched two hands. Not the optimal amount, if I want to crush 30s as hard as I do 15s I gotta step the Lab-Game way up.

• Chips:
That's obviously a whole lotta sunrunning. Then again there's a long almost BE stretch the last 500 games. Fortunately, I know what I've been doing wrong mentally/playstylish and adjust it quite well the last week.

• Profits: Going super well, basically doubled my bankroll with a mix of 15s and 30s, good RB with Platinum Madness, normal chests and hitting my 1.2k $ rakeback tomorrow. Also managed to FT like 50% of hyper MTTs I cashed and cash like 30% of them, that's huge!

• Health: Month has been desastrous. My back pain which started mid January pretty much stays the same, I start to not play my A-Game in table tennis due to endurance problems, losing more than I must (was hoping to have a 20-0 season, now its 16-4 )
Need to start working on my diet, am signing up for the fitness studio across the street with my roommate (casual poker player, playing the storm and some live sattys that's about it for him.) beginning next week! Also I must stick to 100% of my breakfast being cereal with yogurt, fruit & nuts, not 4 slices of bread with cheese all over it. Will cook a lot more, working on my bulgur-salad-game today and go from there.

Let's see what march brings. Will work on points Lab and Health the most, also will try to up the volume!

150 Spins, solid A-Game, 400$+ and additionally finished this five days before expiration date:



Will play some MTTs over the course of the weekend due to the fact that I'm free of volume pressure rakebackwise for now.
GL

Short Saturday with good results
MTT Buy-Ins: 500$
Cashes: 1.500$
Some Hyper, Big 44 and Hot 33 Cashes plus a bink:


Looking forward for another long MTT grind tomorrow and ready to crush the live tournament(s) coming week!

Bricked almost my entire schedule, juicy -1k$ Sunday! Took two days off, enjoyed some fresh air while getting in 70km on my bike and found these beauties



I just caught up with Peaky Blinders, amazing! Also started the Glitch on Netflix, interesting scenario, will have to figure out how I like it. Just updated PS client and the new design looks absolutely horrendous. Tomorrow I'll fire spins until I don't feel like it anymore, 150 minimum though! Live tournament has been cancelled due to Corona and that's okay. Will get more Spins in, EV$ should be higher that way. Good night

Hi. I am trying to playing spin and go. How do you study for have this amazing result?
Now i just watch a lot of strategy videos. Do you have any advice for a noob that want to grow?

TY

Hiya, what's your poker background? You want to play Spin & Go or Spin & Go Max? I think for normal 3max Spin & Go I'm not the best one to talk to, there's a Spin & Go thread in the tournament poker section and tons of study material, free and courses for money, out there. For Spin & Go Max, I'd say start on the 1$, apply the power knowledge you have and try to adjust to the environment and game mode: Table size, being short stacked, having a limited amount of hands to get the best chipcount possible. Make sure you understand the variance that comes with this mode though, can be more brutal than MTTs from time to time.

I myself played Spin & Gos since release and Spin & Go Max the same, did not study with any material that's out there but used the understanding for short stack games I have coming from 25bb hypers and did my math the first years I pursued poker as a hobby (beginning 10 years ago). Getting in the volume in different formats and finding out which one suits you the best, result-& fun-wise, is crucial.

Got 100 Spins and 20 MTTs in today, got 3rd in 22$ PTotalKO Headsup Zoom for 500$, was about 1,5k$ up top so that's unfortunate. All in all a solid day with good spin results and a little up on the MTT front.

Awesome results/volume, one question how do you get those exclusive bonuses? just randomly or you have to request them?

Got them twice in the last 3,5 months. Randomly appeared in the Challenges tab. Some say they're handed to losing players to lure them into playing more volume but I doubt that's 100% true, case made by myself )

That RB must be nice!

Had a low volume week, with a 70/30 mix of MTTs and Spins, had solid profits, played very well in the spins - MTTs are more fun than my real job for now, I like playing them, get a profit out here and there but can not reliably say I crush them, except the hyper turbos and they dont really run a lot lot on PS. Maybe I'll add Partypoker when doing MTTs so I can fire more hypers simultaneously. Will experiment with that coming week. Tomorrow MTT grind on Stars and hopefully get some deep runs in, estimated buyins ~700$ total.

Hello! Got a decent volume in while being breakeven-ish, some Hyper FTs but all in all only slightly up. MTT traffic is SUPER crazy which is why I'll switch fulltime to those games for now, got a feeling that Sunday Million Anniversary tomorrow will be super sick, GL all on the grind.

I've yet to hear of anyone beating this format over a large sample size.

Any updates? How are you doing these days?

Hi, I really like this thread and wanted to try these tourneys out myself. They seem pretty fun, and it might be a stupid question, but where is the cashout button? I couldn't find this option on the tournaments I won...

^^ Some countries/states simply dont have/offer it (legal issues). I also don't have that option.
