But seeing a real person behind it, is maybe gonna slow me down from steaming on the tables lol!! Gl with your challenge, looks like you really sorted things out well!
Haha thx man, yeah I think we all see regs we play against constantly who for one reason or another can be pretty tilting. Game selection is soooo important and the only reason I'm mass reg'ing all the games is to keep up with the 3 million VPP pace that was required since the start of the chase. It's especially hard when using games which aren't traditionally considered paths to SNE (unless you're Simakos
) let alone 3*SNE pace. But next year this will obviously change completely. What's your Stars name btw?

Im going for SNE next year on 18man along with 5050 mixed in and would be very much OK with 4% pre rakeback even though im at 9% right now at the 25+ sngs.
What do you think about 5050, ur barely be after sne rakeback, they are very reginfested right? im trying to learn them but im not sure if its worth it, what do you think? will you keep playing these?
gl with the chase
Thanks, yeah the "as near as 10%" aim is for next year where I certainly will be having a completely different grind requirement to now, with the luxury of even just playing 18-mans on their own at times, and certainly halving the number of tables I need to have up. As near as seemed more prudent than 10% itself, since the games are become very reggy and edges must be much harder to come by than prior to black friday which will slightly distort the stats of the top regs for the year overall.
50/50s are indeed very regfesty, the advice I'd give is very similar to that I suggested yesterday regarding high stakes 6max. at $100/200 level next year I'd be surprised to see anyone making any real profit prior to rakeback.
What name do you play under on Stars?

Enjoying the thread ILS, am impressed how you deal with the swongs.
Cheers, more out of necessity than choice! :P

Good luck ,seems like your close now to getting there.Next year should be more fun for you I hope
Tyty, I recognize you as a top 6-max super turbo reg so I'll put up my years' EV for them which might be of interest. My EV stats for all games 2011 is pretty much impossible to know, since I've played hundreds of Steps which get counted as $0, and also for the 6-max hypers and 18-mans there were issues with generating an EV number for them prior to downloading a newer version of HEM only a couple months ago. Afaik unless I re-import hand every hand history prior to gettin the update, the update will not retroactively correct the EV figure for those.
No prizes for guessing where on the graph the SNE chase started! Despite pretty much flat-lining from that point, since I've been churning out ridiculous mass-tabling on them (up to 32 tabling once I think, completely stupid), the rakeback hourly has been ~$78/hr when only grinding them. So not all bad news, plus I imagine the games have gotten tougher making expected edge lower. But really, I got to the point where the VPPs required and the #tables that was coming to, I was misclicking constantly and it really wasn't a fruitful endeavour. But like everything else, looking forward to 2012
