That's an impressive Sharkscope graph.

Had a not-so-good session yesterday where I lost 40 bucks, but today I had a nice one where I won 50, so I'm over 700 dollars for the first time in my poker career. Yay!

Congratulations!!

Cheers mate

I played 3 different sessions today. First session was horrible. I got fish right where I wanted them. One time I suckered in 2 fish. Had AA hit an A on the flop with 2 spades out there...checked...one fish bet pot (around $2.25 or so...) next fish called and I bumped it up to around $6...both called. I knew one had to be on a flush draw...other middle set? Turn a blank. I shoved, both fish call. River a spade. Fish one shows A4 for a pair and the second shows KQ spades for the flush. I went on massive annoyed tilt for an hour...overplayed cards lost a couple more buyins.

Left to do laundry and then came back and ground out a buy-in and a half. Left to grocery store...came back and ground out another buy-in and a half to break even and spent 210 FPP points on the $11 satty...placed top 6 and sold my $11 tournament dollars for $10.67. So after 3 healthy sessions....I made about a buy-in today...quite annoying.

Losing a buy in from getting sucked out by horrible players who made horrible calls is probably what tilts me the most... it sucks

How do you spend your FPP to play on tournaments that give real money? Didn't know you could do that, I thought they're all satellites which means if you win, all you get is a seat to a real money tournament.

Use a site like this.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/sell-poke...nament-dollars

You fill out their little form on their webpage, then you go into Pokerstars and sell your T$ to the site and Pokerstars will do the transfer for you.

At silverstar, 5000 FPP can get you a $50 bonus. Or you can use 210FPP to play in the Sunday 2Hundred Grand 20 man turbos (only need to be in the top 6). 5000 FPP net's you 23 buy-ins into the 210FPP tourney. You only need to place in 5 of 23 to make 55T$ and then sell them to the site above for $53.35. These are incredibly soft and you should easily place in 8 of 23....I would think. I'm 1 for 3 right now...bubbled both the others...it sucked. This is a good idea for us Micro-grinders IMO

You can unregister from the tournament and get the tournament dollars. You can then either use those for tournaments/sngs or sell them for cash.

Moved 300 onto stars from tilt, leaving 99 on tilt and 345 on stars

pretty meh day, up and down. Decent hands couldnt hold for big stacks, but garbage was hitting to keep me in things.

Stars: $352.77
Tilt: $108.85
Total: $461.62

A little bit of time to play tomorrow, lots of time to play Tuesday.

o wow, that sounds nice.

Has anyone played a bunch of these FPP tourneys with a pretty high win rate? I'm completely clueless on SnG winrates and what is considered a good one.. I'm assuming only having 600 FPP and playing a 210 BI has a huge risk of ruin? Not that I wouldn't take shots anyway, FPP is useless to me atm.

when i used up most of my points on stars i won 9 outta 9 in a row. lost the 10th one then about 2-3 more, and since then i won 2 again. so my win rates not been bad.

I think the thread in the MTT/STT forum gives you a better rate then those sites. Not sure though. (MTT/STT give 99-99.5% not sure what the sites give, probably not more)

A quick question: Does anyone have experience with the $50,- free bankroll that pokerstrategy.com offers? Got $50 on Titan today and the very lay-out of the site makes me tilt, lol.

Thanks! I'll check the thread out. The website gave me 99.6%,but every few pennies count.

Oh if the website gives you 99.6% then that's more than 99.5% :P

bah....you are correct. I just divided what I got in return (10.63) by $11T to get my %. Also, I am at work and on the iphone since work browsers block "gambling" pages and I didn't re-read your post. I'm sure the MTT thread is closer to 99.9%. I'll check when I get home.

obv.

Villain had been about as passive as it gets.. all of a sudden q8s is a hand worth defending with.

Lool that's a pretty sick hand right there.

ahahaha...I saw that and I was like 'You must of f'ed the hand history or something because you would've won this hand' OOP

You were outplayed, obv.

Learn to flop the nuts, imo.

get all your money in against me with Krag or Qrag and you will win, not matter what I hold.

sfgay

Just sat down at the table and I get this line from a 27/2/0.5 donk (knew his stats later, obv):

WTF is that ****? You get to donk bet your big hands against me once! And wtf is with all these people playing 30+ and never raising? Mindboggling. At least they're easy to get money from when they don't flop the nuts.

I dont think, I would play that hand like that with no reads on villain..

You're right, I shouldn't have bet the turn. Donk bets like that are either the weakness, or the nuts. Obviously he called my raise, so I should have been done with the hand. God knows weak players hate betting for themselves.

^Be careful what you say, whether sarcastic or not, cause it might later be pointed at you! Nah just playing, seriously though, that sucks. I hate playing against 30/-123123123123/.0000000001 donks. Their stupidity tends to catch me off guard sometimes.

Honestly, I have to say that as of late I have really found the power in dumbing yourself down at the micro stakes. I read alot and watch alot of videos, but I think overthinking what a donk is doing can really cost you money.

I think im gonna start a thread on this topic and get peoples thoughts on it...
