My last three months have been in the 1k range or a little below on FTP. If you're 3-tabling, 8 hours a day with no days off gets to 2k pretty easily. Just like a 9-5 that requires some overtime really. Methinks you've been playing too high where the action is too scarce to think about this

sick of HU shootout tournaments.. You win 2 games then get a cooler or lose 2 flips when blinds are 40/80...

AQ<K7

FTL

still on a bit of a heater though

Pretty sure I could do 2k in a month.

I couldn't even consider doing a prop bet on it until after July though, since I'm in vegas 2 weeks in june and (hopefully) 2 weeks in july.

i just won a no blind increase on stars

$11

biggest joke ever though dude just folded everyhand and i just 3x'd

wasn't even close to poker

Definitely not, just playing 110s sporadically lately.

I just didn't see you play more than 325 games or so on your FTP name, so didn't know if you played on multiple sites.

Sure, 2k games is doable, but do you know any profitable husng players that 3 table their regular buyin for 8 hours a day, no days off?

I'm sure there are people that can/will do this, it's just not that easy or regular or else somebody would have done this by now.

Maybe some have on FTP, since games are so much faster, but find me a player on Stars that has done this. Obviously if it were so easy somebody would have done it by now, at least a few of the winning players has to not be a lazy ****er.

rogabee on FT 4 tables reg speed $50's

doubt he does it for 8 hours but he puts in a lot of volume

ss me last 3 months on FTP filter heads up and you'll find 2.5k games. That's going to school full time not to mention the full time gf. A 2k month is really not that big of a deal and I expect I'll be around 1.5k in June.

As far as prop bets go (see BBV), this is a pretty easy one. If there were substantial side action it would be a walk in the park.

Playing 2k games/month would probably end up in me quitting poker for 6mo.

If you see him playing, sit him if you can. Playing him is easier than playing fish because he plays so ABC std and it's easy to exploit. I'm not sure how good he is though when he just 1/2 tables...

Certainly, you can do anything with 8 hours of time if the money is right.

Tougher to do it profitably, but yea.

Anyways, those are FTP turbos, Stars turbos would put a 1500 game month on FTP at under 1000 games for Stars.

Again, still doable, but not a walk in the park or SOMEBODY on Stars would've done it by now (maybe somebody I don't know has?).

I agree that he's mega-ABC and that it's exploitable but I really don't think your edge is bigger against him than a random.

Agreed.

I don't even think I'd have to switch to turbos to do it, although I'd probably add the 4th table when I'm playing at home. (when I play from work, with 2 monitors, I add a 4th table a lot. when I play from home, I just 3 table, just because of screen real estate. I don't like shrinking the tables, and it's pretty inconvenient and annoying to futz around with the lobby whenever a game ends, because there's usually a running game in front of it.)

I play reg speeds on FTP btw.

I think you underestimate some people's mental stamina. I don't think mine is out of the ordinary and long sessions are not really draining at all for me. I've wished I had the time to play more every month this year.

I'm just wondering why nobody has done it on Stars as far as I can tell.

Dibasio seems to play 24/7 and he's hit 1800 twice from what I can tell.

If he played a little lower I'm sure he'd of hit 2,000, but that guy is a machine and he prints money (probably easier to play 2k games in a month if you're having 30-40k months before rakeback like him).

Are the guys on Stars just lazy?

I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you here, I'm just at a loss to explain how it can be easy yet nobody has done it on Stars.

Stars' structure is slower, which hurts. Not having a rematch button until recently, still not having an "I'm ready" button as I understand it also contribute to lower volume. But I think most of it is that 2k games is just one step beyond comfort level. Not so much that it wouldn't be a relatively easy prop bet but not so little that people do it just because they like poker.

That makes a little more sense, though several regulars I've talked to that have done 1500 games mentioned that they did it just b/c it was a goal of their's and would never try it again.

I guess for the people with better stamina, what you say makes good sense. I definitely wouldn't prop bet anybody on 2k games on FTP and on Stars it would have depend on the person. 3k games on Stars would be interesting, however.

Stars turbos are very comparable to FT regulars for the first 12-15 mins. After that, stars turbo blinds shoot past FT regulars pretty quickly.

first 1000 games of HU >.>

i'm so proud. I seriously need to start putting in more volume

Any1 wanna do some prop betting on the 25K hu shootout.. mentioned it b4! cmon guys

Anyone here had any experience with Rottweilers?

I'm thinking of getting one, it's a flip between that and a boxer. But i can't make up my mind because i love them both.

Actually, I just looked at my own monthly results, and I actually came *really* close to hitting 2k in december.

1911.

lol

Unless you have a big place, I wouldn't suggest a rottweiler. These guys like to be outside too much. Plus they are a bit too agressive towards strangers and MUST be trained at a young age.

I don't know a lot about you and maybe it's not an issue (yet), but boxers are better with kids and more friendly overall. They're also v smart and active. And yeah - they're smaller.

oh, and you can always try a boxweiler:

Yeah we have a great place for a dog tbh. Tons of fields around me pretty much and not a lot of neighbours. I live in a cottage and we're like 15 mins drive out of concrete city so it's a great place for dogs in general. But i do have 2 sisters at 15 and 10, i'm not sure how big a problem that'd be.

And yeah i love boxers too and maybe because their better around kids etc, that might just swing it.....

But man, i love rottweilers too :/

beat or variance?
