Still no Headsup Sit and Goes standard or turbo speeds.... What is taking so long to offer these? I understand why they havent added cash game HU but no reason they cant havee sngs.

I'm probably gonna do what you and others have done and reset my stats regularly. I'd still like to have access to their stats on my account.

I've spent a dumb amount of time wondering about sharkscope's ability rating and how they formulate it even though I understand fully well that it means nothing. It reallllly rewards people for playing higher stakes.

man, I liked to play huSnGs on Stars in the day but I feel that the player pool here isn't big enough to really support hu SnGs taking away from the 6m/9m pool

Not sure it's so much about liquidity as it is the predatory nature of HU games and how much faster they would deplete an average players deposit.

Gl today.

You can get your stats back. When you reset it dosent erase your stats. It shows your stats from the day you reset and later.

Yeah same lol.

I think global should add a turbo 9m and a normal 9m for every stake and add a 35 and 75 6 max regular and turbo.

What is good bankroll management for hypers. Idk what I should be doing for it right now Im doing 5-30 on a 8k bankroll. This is what Im doing now.
10k to move up to 5-50s not taking out 5s because I sometimes cant get to 10 tables with out them
13k for the 5-70s
18k for 8-107
and 30k for 16-218s I will add in 55-218 turbos most likely and maybe the 9m 110 because some fish play 110s and I dont wanna miss out.

I'm more conservative, but what you have is fine as long as you're very disciplined about moving down.

No, but I play too many tables and I'm not very good to begin with so I wouldn't notice much anyway.

The answer can be vastly different depending on whether or not you've played enough to establish an ROI, or at least have an idea what your ROI might be. For 6-max having nearly 300 buy-ins seems super conservative to me. You'll just limit your growth this way.

It makes no sense to me to be playing $5 SNGs at the same time as $50/$70 SNGs. The lower stakes will just be a distraction. Play fewer tables at high stakes rather than add low stakes tables if you can't get enough high stakes tables going, or play multiple sites.

Your still good imo. Youre better than most of the regs. How many do you play. I do 6-10.

I would just run some simulations in SwongSim (can find it on 2+2), and figure out what you're comfortable with. Doing that is the best way to visualize how bad things can get (they can get really bad over very long stretches

My issue is that I don't stop registering until I start timing out lol. I can probably do 10-12 without issues, more than that and it's a disaster.

A lot of the games I play will be micros/mids because the high 1s run slow and at night they dont run. If this msg dosent make sense its cuz I stayed up all night.

There's this old website where you can put in stake and ROI and ITM% and it'll spit out a conservative/loose/very risky suggested bankrolls based on Kelly Criterion: http://www.bankrolltools.com/

you can't differentiate between hypers and non-hypers; it's just something to look at for an estimate

I'll look at SwongSim too. Wow, that takes me back. Swongs they r 1 thing.

heh we are all resetting our stats

I'm gonna miss comparing graphs with other regs, but it just makes too much sense to not reset the stats ...

It is pretty interesting to look at 1 day sample sizes. Had a 10% av ROI and lost money because I got obliterated at the 160 hyper. Made me feel a bit better during a losing day

How can anyone say HU sngs are worse for the beginners than Hypers ill never understand. Its not true at all its just people here defending the games they like. Theres more variance in 6max sngs and 9max sngs then HU sngs. Also the site has plenty enough players to have HUsngs. Much smaller sites have them.

Global has created their conditions very much on purpose (high rake, hard software to multitable, no hud, difficult lobby, no HU games). I highly doubt no HU games was simply an oversight.

I'm just trying to explain why I think Global would not have HU, not trying to cheerlead for my favourite format for God's sake.
