@Da_Nit I seen where people r buying r setting up operations in many rural towns throughout America. Buying old abandon buildings and turning them into super computers, running algorithms at crazy speed. Mining is where the money is, but I hv no clue.

I woke up this morning and saw some nice gains. May b selling my crypto today for a $250 profit. Rinse and repeat. People smarter than me are saying it hasn't bottomed yet, and $4-5k is possible. I tend to think it's oversold, so mayb I shd take profits today and keep an eye on the charts.

I usually only play a few live Ts a year, so wondering what wd be a gd brm for online Ts w a 1k start?
Not sure what my roi is in Ts either.
Any suggestions which buy-ns I shd b playing w 1k?

*after taking to customer support today , I think it's a verification prob. So hopefully soon we will start up.

**sold both my eth and BTC today for a decent gain. Gonna buy again when time is right. I think I can get back in under 6k on BTC. If so, gonna buy 2 whole shares ($12k worth) next time.
Waiting patiently on a entry for FCEL and HYGS.

I think at $1k it would make sense to play $20 and under MTTs. I think if you can finish ITM around 20% it would be strong.

Just curious if u already have crypto why are u using. Card to deposit? Save the extra fees man. Coinbase->buffer-> ignition literally takes 15 minutes if u use priority fee(which is still way less than the CC fee).

Good luck with trades. Just b smart. Learn from mistakes in past and the Tesla will be yours. I have no doubts.

Also get some software. U need poker tracker or Holden manager. Poker tracker has ignition hud beta or there is 3rd party software to get a hud and it will save your hands in poker tracker/Holden manager for review.

I think First depo fee-less.

I hate huds, but if everyone is using one, I might as well too.
Solid advice and will get Poker Tracker based on ur advice. Thanks

$25 is fine but also mix in some lower buyins as well. You should play as many as your comfortable with simultaneously but i think you should eventually atleast try and double that table count to 4 so you can gain more experience quickly, and if you can't find 4 mtt's you wanna fire at once you can mix in some sng'z as well. Should def help your tourney game and am glad you're lookin forward to it, im lookin forward to you playin some bigger games live, gl man!

I remember a vlog you did from Vegas playing $5/$10 or bigger. Look forward to hearing about your live action. Also got your money in Ignition, good luck.

Someone suggested I use displays, but see where ignition is anonymous and doesn't track long term data of players.
Essentially, I'm reading that it only tracks in real time (short sessions).

Is this true? Wd it even b worth getting a hud if that's the case?

Oh btw, $10 in the black on ignition from last nights play. Lol

It’ll track your play long term and short for studying purposes.

Tracking your current sessions is still worth it, especially if you're multi-tabling.

As others said the hud will track your sessions. So if in a tourney every player u sit with will be tacked for duration of tourney.

Also it will allow you to review hands. Poker tracker also has ICM calculator to further post game study. After 48 hours u can also download hand histories from ignition allowing u to see ALL hole cards. Helps with developing population tendencies.

In other words yes. Hud still worth it and pretty much mandatory since in. MTT if 600+ ppl with no screen names it’s impossible to manually keep track of how ppl play. Knowing someone is a 20/4 Vs a 22/17 is huge especially when it comes to stealing, shoving in late game, calling down, ect

Not sure how often I shd b defending from the bb, but may b guilty of calling light too often.
Is there any rule of thumb here? Let's talk about it.

*1,083 start the day, end w $1,011.

If you're referring to tourny, if you're gonna be heads up you should almost never fold a bb to a <2.5x open.

Really @Prodigy? If so, that's gd to know. I guess I haven't been calling to light then.

$1,103 playing the $25s. At what point shd I move up to $50 buys?

Not sure if I'll get any of the welcome bonus. Does not look poker counts towards bonus.

Here says 0% cleared.



After looking further into why 0% cleared.



^ looks like everything but poker counts toward bonus.


* Wasn't gd last night or this morning. $967 current.

**Cd never get a $10k order filled on Monday for 5.80 when HYGS hit that mark. Up 11% to 6.60 today. Ugh

Or maybe I haven't acquired enough points. Don't see how tho cause I been playing a **** ton of Ts w some 1 or 2 shots takes.

09-19-2018 , 12:48 PM
Looks like I hv 127 points.



Maybe they been putting in as it clears, but haven't noticed.
Confused.
When they say, "your welcome bonus will b rewarded after you reached the levels shown" (pic above this post/bottom line)...I guess they mean after 30 days.
So perhaps I won't see any bonus until next month. ?

Looks like the welcome bonus goes into your account the day after you reach each tier. So you should have already gotten tiers 1 and 2

Or does now make sense?...

If I'm thinking correctly and don't get my bonus until after the 30th day, shd I play $50s now to accumulate more poker points to get a higher bonus?

Got 127pp after 3 or 4 days. If we avg this amount over 30 days then that wd equal 1000 poker points for the month.

Which equals $200 bonus



Mayb we can get to 2500pp and get $400 w firing up the $50s? Not sure
