April has been an absolute grind. About 500 games running basically 0 CEV. Things turned over the last 200ish games with CEV up to about 80 over that span...but chips won over that time is actually negative. I'm now running 30,000 chips below EV.

Honestly, the run bad in EV for 500 games bothers me more than running below EV.

Keep waiting for it to improve but it never does. Now sitting at 40,000 chips below EV.

I studied, trained and watched videos, and now I absolutely crush 0,25c
What poker room would you guys recommend for 1$ spins? GG, Pokerstars, PartyPoker or iPoker?
Consider I have 35% rakeback on GG for a month, plus the leaderboard... But isn't the field much tougher?
Appreciate any analysis of the rooms for the micros, plus analysis of rakeback etc

Honestly the room you choose isn't that big of a consideration when you're playing anything below $5 IMO, even if there are some regs at $1 or $2 they will be very bad, best is just to see what the rb% you can achieve is, the format (GG format has 15bb starts for example so winrate is much more capped in that way), check the rake also. I'd guess pokerstars or partypoker maybe best options, at this stage you should be studying a bunch with an aim to move up ASAP

If you want to play reg speeds then stars. If you don't mind playing flashes then gg or party. I would go gg because the traffic is high and plenty of recs at the smaller stakes.

These are the results for stars.com for the past 12 months.



But you need to remember that basically all the stars players are getting tons of RB on spins. I don't play spins anymore and don't plan to but I remember my best month was $28k by grinding 8k games in a month with like 35ish cev on 100s and getting 2x$8k 40% RB challenge (and cheap black chests for a while coz I just started grinding on stars again then) a bit over a year ago. In a standard month I'd grind 4k games for 1 of the challenges and if I broke even in money with say 20-30ish cev or whatever it'd still be a good $8-15k.

So yeah I'd say there's still money to be made in spins and always will be. Not too sure I'd enjoy the whole lobby system at highstakes or the fact that the only way to get a good spins education is by joining a stable or the fact it's probably the most repetitive form of poker and (probably) the easiest for humans to memorize GTO-wise, and mainly about good volume at some point but yeah, pros and cons to everything I guess. If you have good work ethic and discipline spins is prolly one of the easiest ways to make a good living in poker.

I made some calculations with the results in that image.
You can win like 10 times the amount of money if you have the average winrate of 5 dollar normal spins, compared to playing turbo spins. I even considered that the player playing turbo spins could play double the amount of spins, and even then normal spins have 10x the profitability.
My results are much better in turbo spins, which means I have a lot to learn and study.
