Most makeup/ How long - Page 4 - MTT Poker Strategy - Multi Table Tournament Poker Forum

lol like 6k. But I last split profit like two months ago, was +15k 6 weeks ago and thought I'd hold off splitting until after SCOOP. Now I'm in makeup so yeah, awesome!

Been backed, for a few live events, usually in a freeroll program without makeup. a smaller % obv for myself.

But actually flirting with the fact of getting a backer, cause as most people know, these ftops/scoop/sunday's are really starting to add up.

it's still really easy to play cash and sng's on your own money

i made a lot of money on my own in 08 (and 09 too so far) while losing thousands of dollars for backers over that time frame

above also makes me like the worst horse ever... but i blame shaun for that

got staked like 2 months ago sundays/109rs about 2 months ago and dropped 18kish in over a month prolly spending 5k a sunday, binked an 8k score, then got back up to 22k when my backer notified me that all his horses were runnin bad, he lost alot his roll and couldn't afford to back me anymore. i got 10th in the mulligan, deep in a bunch of 109rs and a bunch of other crap but got crapped on when it mattered, sigh

i also went on a lil downswing on my own money of like 12k and im down from like a 53k roll to like a 40k roll again, and the prospect of playing all the majors on sundays to dropping bakc down to $150 FOs make me so sad and i haven't played the past two weeks tho i'll prolly get back on the grind soon but im not sure, jus not feelin MTTs anymore and my stats are prolly horribad i dont even wanna look @ them to see if i can get another backer, etc, plus i was really lucky to find a sundays only backer anywhere since most ppl want all your action, etc etc, prolly jess pessimistic, i got dejected from MTTs every couple months anyways and i know lots of ppl that do too, jus gotta get back into grind mode like back in the old days

tough life huh

There is nothing more tilting to me than clueless idiots pretending to have a clue what they are talking about, and that is bad enough with people that actually play poker/post on 2p2. Then there are the idiots that play homegames from time to time, watched the WSOP on TV, and think they'd take me on hu4rollz. But really, when you get up to gobbomom level, it just becomes so ridiculous that you wonder if she is actually serious or just drunkedly mashing away at buttons on the computer screen because she literally has nothing better to do with her time.

I mean, I know I do the same thing that I'm making fun of, but poker is actually a big part of my life, yakno? I'm not going on various bodybuilding/collegebasketball/scrabble/any old forum debating/arguing the ethics/giving advice on stuff I literally have NO ****ING CLUE ABOUT. JESUS ****ING CHRIST. I MEAN, IF YOU WEREN'T SO STRONG ALWAYS WITH LIKE, FALSE. I'D BE ABLE TO TOLERATE YOU. BUT YOU ARE COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY INTOLERABLE.

c'mon scro-seph... extremely annoyed? At GOBBOMOM? for that?

Nope.

My makeup currently is approaching $30kish since februaryish. In my defense I have been playing live a lot more lately. My backer hasn't had any action in my 5 figure scores yet either.
