Yeah... was playing super aggressive while 4-6 tabling and only breaking even. Adjusted my fighting style.

standard

I also don't understand why he's been running so well vs me and still has a winning record vs me *cry*

those hands can't be real

ya thats typical ranman style. he's easily one of the worst players around

yea lol i mean he's running at -33% over 3k games and down 100k...

what the hell is his deal? I mean, I love him and I love how he loves to sit randomly but wtf is he thinking?

Really astonishing. Thanks for sharing.

I was flabbergasted at 3:18-3:30, but if you think about it its actually a very basic trick but a very nice effect.

wow donnyberretta, you 4-6 table already? what stakes are you playing at and turbo or nonturbo and PS or FT?

wasnt donnyberretta the guy who complained about the sick regs in the 2 dollar games?

Yes. He doesn't seem to crush those pros so far though:

donnyberretta 532 $0 $2 2% $21 LLWLLWWL E<=2 S<=2$

Poker is weird, got owned at $88s by some trashtalker, now I got a guy at $220 timebanking me asking me not to sit anymore.

just get off by back ..would you?

kukulcan im pretty sure you're my favourite member of this forum. haha i love reading your posts so much.

GET OFF the MANS BACK! ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I started with a $50 BR playing $2 SNGs. I started playing regular speed at PS, tilted and when busto playing higher games.

Then I switched to FTP $2 SNG Turbos. BR fluctuated between 30-60. Then I switched to regular speed and started practicing my 4-6 speed cascade style.

When I start the games I try to memorize each name in my head to associate with bet patterns. The only problem is I've lost 3/200 games by forgetting one of the tables and my blinds get folded out.

I switched from an aggressive style to a passive/tighter style and shot up to $87 yesterday with 112 games. When on a 12-0 Heater.

I think most people realize there are good and bad players at all levels. Just depends on timing.

i think if ur trying to get better at husngs its a HUGE mistake to play 4 to 6 tables...u should be playing 1 or 2 at the max..thats just my opinion tho..

You seem to be a nice guy donny, but I think you have to make sure to know what you are willing to do.

(1) Getting better in HU SNG?
(2) Building a roll?
(3) having some cheap fun multitabling hu

If its (2), then you have to make sure you do (1) first. If it's (1) then 5-tabling is def. not the right play. If its (3): go ahead.

edit: just saw pauls post... was on phone while typing this, so aparently it took me more than 11 minutes...

I agree with you guys for the most part. Anytime I've played higher than $2 , I've played just one table at a time so I can study my oppenent.

i used to not tilt that bad, now whenever i lose a coule flips or get sucked out on i get mega tilt. wtf?

petition to introduce super-turbo hu sngs?

Not at $2. Not at $5/6. Not at $10/11. Maybe a winner who isn't playing his hands face-up at $22, but IIRC, they're all still nits at the $20s.

sharkscope isnt entirely accurate...i HAZ PROOF!!!!!!...but yeah if the person is down 21k, then they are a terrible player. its not that far off...lolz
and fwiw top shark is way off, says i have has only played 170 games in the last 3 months, but ive played like 290.

i woudlnt put that much weight to either site, but even less so to top shark

What is ThomasNY's screename on full tilt?

I register for a SNG as soon as i wake up this morning...get distracted by the coffee being ready...walk over to get it and start posting on this thread and totally forget about the game.

variance.
