Send the email and they will tell you if you are ok to get it or nay.
All right. Thanks.

I might raise this in a higher buyin, expecting the BTN to always shove/fold and never flat, and to shove tight. Even then you have a tricky post flop v the BB. In a $1 I just shove to make it easier for me, since they can do all kinds of weird stuff.

Pre Flop: (t150) Hero is MP1 with J K
2 folds, Hero ?
Stacks are too awkward to do anything but fold imo. KJs isn't strong enough to push for 13BB. I don't think it will be very bad, but they would all have to be very tight for it to be profitable.

Pre Flop: (t180) Hero is BTN with 9 7
5 folds, Hero ?
Looks good to me, would fold vs anyone crazy

Pre Flop: (t240) Hero is UTG with T A
Hero ?
Looks like a close fold to me.

If you don't have SnG Wiz you should buy it asap (or an equivalent). You can't really move down from $1 SnGs, but I've said in the past I think it's better to buy Wiz and have to move down a level to pay for it, than stay where you are and not have it. And I def still stand by that.

Possibly a stupid question so I reckon it belongs in here...

I'm playing on a mac using Pokercopilot and in order to analyze any close calls late in the game I am using sng wiz (got dual boot capability for windows).

The problem I'm having is how to 'mark' hands for future analysis. I'm currently noting down the hand number on a piece of paper as I go but am certain there's an easier way out there which I have just overlooked. Any ideas?

From FAQ thread.

3) Bankroll Requirements

If you are playing SNGs for a living, you should have as an absolute minimum, 100 buyins in your account. 200 would be preferable. For all serious players, 100 buyins is the standard, although there is nothing wrong with taking shots at a higher level with less. You can make adjustments for this depending on how willing you are to move down in stakes after a downswing. If you don't mind jumping around stakes, as few as 30-50 buyins might be enough. However, it is preferable to only move up once you have 100 buyins at a given level so if you DO happen to go on a bad run, you won't have to move down to recover. The reason is simple... assuming you're beating a given level, you will recover quicker playing the same stakes as opposed to attempting to recover at smaller stakes.

If have 2k = $20´s for 100buyins.

That likely depends on what you think it's measuring.

Do you think it would be ok to have just SNGWIZ for SNG's. Or is HEM / Pokertracker 3 also a necessary investment for playing strictly SNG's?

I understand that in order to use SNGWIZ correctly, you would have to put your opponents on a range of hands. Isn't this difficult to do is you're multitabling 9 games at a time?

If this was my forum there would be a sticky saying: Don't post until you have a HUD/tracking software and an ICM program.

Edit: And then it would have massive flashing signs saying adjust the ranges in Wiz yourself, IT DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO PLAY POKER

ooooh FTP back up

Download the trials and try and judge for yourself. No they are not a complete necessity because not absolutely everyone uses one bbbbbbbbut there is obviously a large chance you will find one useful so do your homework yourself.

I'll assume you're taking about in review and not in-game and say that putting your opponents on correct ranges is what Short stacked Sngs are all about. It's where the skill in Push Fold resides, so yes it's difficult but it's essentially what you're trying to master.

You improve through learning from experience. If 9 tables is too much to handle for you atm then cut down until things feel more natural, you can always add back on later.

Anyone know what a good sample size is for comparing finish distributions in 6max (specifically merge super turbos). I have two players with 8k game samples. Would a difference of like 3% in one place be significant or is the sample still too small.

8k games isnt even a month for a hardcore grinder if it comes to superturbos.

US players have choice?! Thought it was Merge, Merge or Merge.

Merge will be your best bet. Only Bodog/Cake also still accept us players, I was on bodog/cake the other day checking out the games and there's noooo sng traffic really.
