Global Poker SNG Discussion Thread - Page 5 - Global Poker -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

I'm thinking about offering a prop bet to jared/serpaetetra/agorist or whoever else about who can finish first for SnG profit on the year, it would inspire us to put in real volume. If anybody has interest in that lemme know.

Lol I wish I can put in as much volume as you guys but obviously have a career going. You grind for a living right, Poker12 ?

Yea, I read that. Always nice to get recognized, but I try not to let ego play a part in my game, although not always easy

Happy to stay in mid stakes where I'm more comfortable and think I have a chance to make a little profit. I'm aware I'm not the best overall player, but I realize some parts of my game could use improvement.

yeah I do, I had like 100 dollars to my name in August, deposited that life-roll on Global and quit my job delivering pizzas for minimum wage almost immediately

I always wonder why you and a couple other guys who are good players (namely you and leeroy) but only play 9mans don't play 6mans as well, as that would in effect give you more volume because the games take less time to complete. The 9mans are basically always softer, but still.

I understand that saying this is making my games harder but it seems like such great advice that I feel obligated to mention it.

You and drmoonshine have been in most of my games. Seems like whatever sng I play I run into one of you ☺

A bit of advice for all of you, don't play sick, don't play tired, don't play when you can't focus for whatever reason. Learning those lessons cost me many thousands of dollars before it really sank in. Sometimes its better and MUCH cheaper to just knock off and go watch a movie or go to sleep.

+1

I've been sick the past three days and haven't played at all. Probably saved myself some $$$ by napping instead of playing poker.

poker12 are you serious about running it up from only $100 in August? That is seriously inspiring.

See you $3.30 guys at the felt!

Some people have complained about the time bank not working as expected, although I haven't had those issues personally.

When it works the way it is "supposed" to you will go into your time bank when you have chips on the table (SB or BB) or you are invested in the pot (after the flop). If you are UTG and your normal timer runs and folds your hand pre-flop without going into the time bank.

Hodler the new sng mvp? Or luckiest heater? Guy has been a consistent losing player only playing sngs since I started and as of last month his ss was over negative 10k and now in less than 30 days his ss is at a positive $3500. That's an incredible turnaround for sngs in less than 30 days after being a consistent loser for 6 months straight.

You must have no experience at mid to high stakes SNGs (not surprising). If you did, you would understand that a 5 figure swing over small samples does not make somebody a consistent anything, loser or winner.

Not sure if a 5 month sample is small but if lose for 5 months straight on global I can't see you being any good. I was actually wondering if maybe the hypers were getting softer while everyone is complaining about more regs. Gl tho

Yeah, hodler definitely hasn’t been playing the same for 5 months straight. He’s made a lot of changes, whether for the good or bad, is hard to tell. Game is not even similar at all to two months ago

Just look at his $16 hypers hes crushing for 7.5% its hard to attain higher than that in the long run with how high the hyper rake is on global.
