Last month I went broke again for the 15th time or something. I realized that I needed to fix my biggest leak which is my tilt. Everytime I lose a couple of buyins I go ape**** and move up in stakes to get my money back.. and of course I go busto doing so.

I want to set myself the goal to build my $100 deposite up to 30BI before I move up in stakes and try not to tilt.

I'll post my graph after every session. I will exclusivly play the 2NL 6max games on full tilt untill I meet my 30BI ($150) goal.

Some advice

grind 2/6/9/18/27 man 2.25s sit and gos rake is a biatch on tilt. How anyone can grind NL2 on tilt I don't know its painfully slow. Wait until you've made about 150 profit before moving up or switching to NL5

Record your sessions on a spreadsheet, gives you the feeling of starting over every time you go to play, have a break every hour or so.
Also on the same spreadsheet set out your BRM guidelines. Have a 'start' column for each session with what ur br is on so you always have to read it and see wtf is going on before you just randomly load up tables.

If you notice yourself tilting just give your mind a 10 second break, go get a drink or something even if ur tables are running, or some cognitive speech.

Some advice as well:

I'd check out some anti-tilt type coaching/videos/books. A couple off the top of my head are Tommy Angelo videos/podcasts at Deuces Cracked (or his book, Elements of Poker?), or Jared Tendler at DragTheBar (he had much more material at Stoxpoker, but they are unavailable right now).

One thing that helped me with tilt, when I was more prone to it, was hitting my punching bag during my breaks. Much better than breaking my mouse or monitor (not that I ever did that).

good luck!

IN the 25 nl games I was a rather LAG player... how should I approach the micro sng's? Playing TAG untill 3 people are left?

How about bluffing?

TAG until you are 5 handed then depending on your stack size loosen up. If you are big stack, I like to put pressure on the blinds but not risk what I don't have to. Let other people try to pick em off.

3 handed get ultra aggressive in my opinion, depending on the blind levels at the time (I've been in the money when blinds are 30/60 and still 4 handed when they are 300/600.)

I rarely bluff at these stakes, too many fish that'll call you with crap regardless.

im playing the 6max games.. full ring is too slow for me.

Like I said, I'm a 25nl player... is it best for me too play the turbo's or the regular 6max?

Just keep your eye on how many BBs you have and act accordingly. It really depends on wether its 6max or the 9/18/27 sit and gos as to how TAG you are and when,,, Don't go in with a strategy other than but to build up your bbs. Keep track of stack sizes make sure you don't push 44 into the chip leader, and put pressure on the stacks that will win you the most equity.

I don't bluff much, but i steal pots that i have the right to own, blind steals against the right opponents with enough BBs in your stack. Stick to position, they call in the sb and bb way too much its funny. if you can't beat 2.25s for 15%+ roi over a nice sample you are still learning basics

Took down some 1tble sng's.. I'll take your advice and start playing the 27player sng's after my friends leave...

We're playing wii golf for 5 euro per hole...

Im not dirnking...

Curious why you think the $2.25's are so beatable at 15% ROI?

Taken from the STT FAQ page.

Personally my goal is to maintain 15% ROI from $2.25 through $5.50 over 1000 plus games on each. While that is my goal, I don't think it is an easy one to accomplish. At Tilt on $2.25 I would think you could earn maximum 2% more than indicated for the above $3.40 turbo on stars and that's only if you are playing 9 handed non-turbos.

Anyone know where you can search players by 1000 minimum games played at say $5.50 on tilt/stars, non-turbo and sort by highest ROI?
