One day i will run pure at higher stakes, its ok !

Rebound incoming!

soon !

I could provide some good cliffs here lol.

This thread perfectly describes the things MTT's do!!!!

The bounceback will be ok!

Edit: Everythingisok!

i wanted to win the gold ring and the 6 figures but i lost a flip 88<AQ for 30bbs and walked away with a min cash. Then i got a speeding ticket on the way home (58mph in a 45mph zone lol highway speedtraps) so after the eventual fine and gas/food i might break even lol. All in all it was a fun, its ok! Now i must rest up and hit the sunday mtt grind hard

Cashing is cashing! Upping those WSOP stats for the Crusher's Club

Sucks to go out on a coin flip after making it so deep. Congrats on the cash, though.

My live tournaments recently have gone pretty poorly too. Played an HPT event over the weekend that paid $45k for 1st. Played 7 hours, and was all-in only 4 times: doubled with AQ vs. KQ post-flop, chopped AJ vs. AJ pre, chopped AK vs AK pre, and busted 99 vs. 22 pre. Lol live-aments.

Anywho, had a question for you about the DONs. Did it take you very long to detach yourself from the individual wins and losses? I'm closing in on completing my first 1000 games, and I'm still getting irked here and there by some losses, whether it's by getting it in good and being sucked out on, or massive chip leaders acting stupid vs. short-stacks and basically costing me a coasted win. Is it just something that will naturally go away as time passes and I put in the volume?

Slow down buddy!

All is ok.

Saw you make a decent run in the milly this weekend?

lol liveaments

it took me awhile to become detached because i was pretty stubborn when i was younger, im 28 now so im still young but i have alot more experience in poker and in life in general. I've changed my view on dons, i use to look at it strictly by the $ swings. As i became better i realized that wasnt optimal. What is optimal for me is knowing how much i make per game, at $50 dons it was around $2.75 a game longterm. So i started to approach my sessions knowing i make over $2.50 a game. Now i just focus on how many games i played daily rather than how much $ im up or down any given day. It helps keep my emotions in check and it motivates me to put in volume. Since i make over $2.50 a game i tell myself playing 50 games that day ill earn over $100 no matter what the short term results are.

I went back and played two more events before the series left, i used cruise control this time lol !

Yea i ended up getting 73rd in the milly. I dont know when the site will bring the milly back so it sucks not knowing when ill have another shot

****


Got 5th in the $530 high roller yesterday. Got 4th in it last sunday

The final table was pretty tough but its nice playing against solid players as it makes the wins that much more appreciated

i hope i can add a high roller win to my resume eventually !




Still grinding away patiently waiting for that big score

here's my mtt graphs before yesterday (wpn's results take 24 hours to upload to sharkscope)

Had alot of close calls since i started my mtt journey march 1st but im going to stay persistent and keep putting my best foot forward

i'd update you guys on my don grind but i havent played any in close to 2 weeks shame on me..

Good luck in May everyone !

Is this where all the DoN players hang out?

Just starting grinding 10s to build a roll for 100plo

GL on the grind!!

Don players unite !

As it seems you can't get much MTT volume on ACR ? Like hitting 500+ a month is impossible ?

GL!

if they keep having connection issues then yea 500 games a month is impossible lol.

its possible to play 1,000 mtts a month though when everything is running smoothly, you can play more if you include more buyins but i usually play $22s and higher. Ill add in $11 mtts if the prizepool is 10k+ and it doesnt start too late ( i dont want to end up 1 tabling an $11 mtt at the end of my session lol)


gl in may nomalice!

Sick $18k downswing. Way to stay the course and get back into the black.

Finally finished my first 1000 DONs and got my own PC&G thread going. Started the $20s last night and so far there seems to be a minimal increase in difficulty. Time to print money.

congratz on finishing your first 1k games, heres to another 1k


glgl ill check your thread out

Yo! Do you ever get tourneys not finished?
I'm getting quite of bit of them in HM1

yes, you have to enter those results manually.

Hey HORUS just found this thread - cool of you to do and look forward to updates - I’m the spew monkey of the same name on ACR having just started there a couple of months ago - will see you around once issues (hopefully) are settled there. I’m an ATL native also and always pull for kids from the Dirty South. Go get that money.

Down in the dirty south!

Thanks arcdog and welcome. I hope wpn gets its issues fixed aswell, im missing the grind.
