Nice1!

what did that pay angri?


.^sc

230$
i´m surprised he even noticed such a tiny amount compared to his BR

Lately I keep barely missing BoP leaderboard low orbit. (don't play nearly enough for high)
Earlier this month I was 3 points short of cashing and lost my last 4 games and this week I hit first place in my 21st game and ended my block with 414 points, arrrgh!
Ah well I am still winning money so can't complain too much but I have never cashed the BoP and barely missing all the time is beginning to get frustrating.
Even a min cash BoP would be great, obviously meaningless moneywise but just to know I cashed BoP would be a good feeling.

I wouldn't worry about it - basically you have to run hot like the sun to cash in BOP - especially in 18 mans - It's defo much more an indicator of how hot you ran than how good you played - if you keep playing then its bound to happen sooner or later.....

GL!

Lol I think I did it again. 290 points in my first 5 games of a set, then busted out of 6 straight. I still have a pretty good chance with my 290 points and 9 games to go but it will be close. I was sure I was finally gonna cash BoP (and honestly after that start I was thinking a lot more about winning rather than cashing) but now it is gonna be close.

Wish me luck tonight =)

i`m pretty sure im just running awful but wanted to check to be on the safe side

Ask if you can move the decimal point on the buy-in one place to the right before calling.

i'd consider folding...

...if it was the nlo8 1drop


ok not even then

I'm not sure the need to play this PF w/ ~6M on the bubble. As played, call and watch as 4 comes, as well as flush. Flush will depend:

- if BB holds higher heart flush, it will be hearts
- if BB has BDFD, it will be clubs

Special bonus: Villain holds A5 for the wheel and/or hits trip 2s/3s.

Snap call obvs, however opening pre without shipping it is highly not recommended. Just jam it in pre or fold, and I would definitely be jamming.

we have a winner both happened.

did u make it?

even so i went on a mini heater and made 549points in the low orbit,my HU maches usally went like that

Nah, came about 10 points short yet again. I figured that was obvious after I failed to make my victory post
Having an absolute killer month with 85% ROI in the 18 mans but it seems every single week I am just barely short of placing. I still can't believe I blew it after getting 290 points in 5 games. I obviously should have switched to the KO games after that start but hindsight is 20/20 isn't it.
It's also a damn shame I don't play more volume cause my last 100 at the 3.50s would score almost 2000 if I was able to put the volume in 1 week.

Anyway I should probably stop derailing this thread because this is only barely related to the thread title but I will probably make some kind of victory post in one thread or another when I pull it off, I definitely feel it coming sooner or later.

Can you tell us your SN?

Sure, just be nice and don't judge me based on my cash game stats lol. I am actually not that terrible losing to the rake not the players at cash but to me I still find that a little embarassing.
Anyway long story short I decided to go for supernova which is nigh on impossible with O8 SnG's so wasted half my year at cash slightly losing before realizing that by the time I got my supernova bonus all it would accomplish was a break even year.
Came back to SnG's a couple months ago and trying to remember why the f#$% I wasted the first 5 months of the year losing money.

And with no further ado, my SN is....

scurvynaive

interesting we havent played really much against each other yet.
my stats of u are(even so very small sample),that u are even tighter than bakyka.
gl to u.

hehe well I aggro it up later in the game but yeah early on I am usually an ubernit. Also, unless you are playing quite late you probably will not see much of me. I mostly play after the missus goes to bed so around 10 pm and later.
Sometimes you will see me earlier and on weekends occasionally during the day.

is this a fold?
