loads of that food looks really, really heavy, no wonder you find it hard to get past 3 to 5 days.

stuff those ridiculous recipes, eat stir frys, grilled meat & salad, steak and roast vegetables, etc.

just looking at those pictures of cheesy spinach makes me feel sick. long as youre skipping carbs and eating healthy i think you'll be fine, ketos focus on fat seems a bit OTT to me

Thanks a lot of the help guys! I got some really good ideas.

I am not that much of a baller yet to hire my own personal chef, so I will have to resort to making my own meals

I will look into this Keto diet as right now I eat organic and no wheat and this seems very similiar.

Didn't bother actually replying but did bother posting "I'd say something but you're dumb so no point "

Edit: Irony is that I almost def know more about nutrition than you, but since you think you know everything it's hard for you to see or understand that

This seems pretty uncalled for. I'm simply inherently sceptical when it comes to nutrition - a lot of the science is shoddy or lacking review.

E: Also "I'd say something but you're dumb so no point" is not what I said at all. What I said is what I meant. I know this is the internet and all but sometimes people are being sincere

The day when you hate it, is glorious. Pure shivers bv entering the frozen food aisle..




something 180man related

Those 35$ and 60$man 180s never fire up! The 60$ even is only available tuesdays and saturdays half day, like not before 12 ET (odd timing).

What instead of being just a SNG it's getting turned into a 200 cap MTT?

Let's say the 35$ fire up once an hour (in real it's less if its not sunday evening!) and the 60$ maybe once every two hours (which is horrible for any player because it's incredible bad to plan your session with that);
instead every 60/90/120/150 or 180 minutes (depending on day and time, I wouldn't fire up a 35$ every 60m at Monday 7 ET but at 13+ ET it's fine) there's a 35$ Turbo MTT with 6K GTD and a 60$ Turbo MTT 10k GTD both with 200 cap. - or does somebody think no cap'd be better?

At mornings like thios (tuesday 11am) I also wish this was possible for 15$ 180mans because there is one running since 30m and the next sng only has 67/180 by now. So theoretically, the next 15m will fire up in 30-60 minutes.

There is of course no 35$ SNG running, with 12/180 sitting there lonely.

3x 8$s running and 7x 3.5$s running with the next at 166/180.
So 3.50s are healthy, 8$ is okay - rest is not. (below I don't really care by now because I bet the traffic is at least 300% at the <2.5$ level


Is this Idea sustainable or bull****?

---------------------------------------

Hmm ..

I took a look into the micros and while there are 25 x 2.5$s running, there are only 2x 0.5$s and 9x 0.1$ 360mans active.

Then I checked out the rake:
2.28+0.22 (9,65%)
0.45+0.05 (11,1%)
0.09+0.01 (11,1%)

do micro players care about the rake so much?

The $35 180s fire up nearly every hour during the week 15:00 - 22:00 UK time i think, Maybe most players think the $35 180s are tough when theres really not much difference to the $15 180s apart from that in the $35 180s theres alot more mid stake+ MTT players in them + RB players, so most players who avoid them because they think there tough are why they lack in how many fire up a day.

To add to the above aswell if Stars added all 180s to the main MTT lobby then i think there would not be much of a volume issue so no need to change SnGs to cap MTTs ect just put them on display for all to see.

Hello,

Have couple questions which are pretty much same just buy in differs:

1) At what bankroll number is safe to start mix 15s/180 if you're playing 3r/8's?

2) Same with 35/60's but have questions is it even worth to play these besides ego reasons? I mean I imagine there is like half a field of thinking players so would it be worth it?

Thanks!

3k-4k is a good start for playing 15s. 6k for 35s. 60 only run tuesday and saturday and 35$ only start once an hour in the evenings so you won't get that much volume into anyway. The field is reggy but the 15s are also, just take a look yourself when games are running if you see way less fish in 15 then in 8 and 35->15 or if its not that much difference. Add slightly smaller rake and a nice 0,7k or 1,5k for first place making those sngs still attractive imo.
Since they are turbos there's not that much postflop-play anyway, know your pushfold game, some domination when down to 45, 30, 20 players and you're good to go (I guess).

depends on your roi% and how bad it would be for you to go busto.
since you used the term "safe" i'd say

1) 5-6k+
2) 9k+

dunno what you mean with "ego reasons" (its a sitngo ffs^^) but 10k swings are possible (in 35/60's only)

Only cool people play the $60 180. I started playing a few just to try and fit in. The $35 are still cool, but getting a bit mainstream.

^^ Yah we need $100 180s now to be super cool.

I came here to summon the legendary knowledge of the 180 grinders! Please answer my question and I'll ship you 100% of my Main Event win in 2022. Also because no one answered in my PGC thread (actually this is the 3rd time I post those questions)

So:

1/What is a good Bb/100 to have in 180 turbos? I ask because although I know it wont be 100% accurate to see if you run good or bad, I want to know through a downswing if I am playing well or not. Mine is at 10 bb/100 (EV) and I run at 4/bb. And for stacks <30bb I run at 6 bb/100 (EV). I run at -1 BB/100. What kind of ROI can I expect with this rate? Or what would be a good bb/100 for each stacks size (ex 0-15 bb, 15 25 bb etc...).

2/What would be a safe bankroll management to move up to the 8$? And the 3.5 rebuys? Currently sitting at 2k.

3/What would be optimal stats (VPP/PFR/3bet) for a 180 grinder? Mine are at 18/16/7. I know it isn't an accurate picture but am I being to loose?

Threadsaver:

Spoiler:


Thx.

What is the biggest downswing you can have in the 3Rs if you are a normal reg?
***OFFICIAL 180-man Regs Thread NSFW*** Quote
07-22-2014 , 11:44 PM
I pm'ed couple names but either price is to high for me either they're not interested. So maybe someone could recommend good 180s/turbo mtt coach at price rate between 50-100$?

Thanks!

Last I heard Protential was in that price range (assuming you're talking per hour) and he's pretty goot at the turbos.
