After terible month on HUSNGs I have decided to play some 6max 7$ SNGs. Just compleated 100 SNGs block and Im sitting in 1st place of Venus division high orbit leaderboard with 1770 points! Few hours till the end of this week. Was very stressfull journey! First guy had 1695 points and I had around 1520 with 9 sngs more to play. With 4 left to play I needed 2 1st places or 1 1st and 2 2nd to make better score then guy that was sitting in 1st place. Started to play 2 sngs and won them bouth. At that point had 1710 points. Started to play last 2 games and right in the middle shock! New guy was in 1st place with 1728 points. And I managed to finish 1st and 2nd in those last 2 games. Phew! Now I have 1770 points and hopefully noone will come up with better score. Last week guy that won had 1674 points! Now dude with 1683 points is 5th! Wish me luck to survive last few hours

What do you get if you make top? Sorry only play MTTs so only know about the leader board in those. You must of ran pretty dam well in these 6max games to make it to the top of the leaderboard. Did you play reg speed or turbo speed games just out of interest? Reg speed games have much lower variance.

Fook! One guy pushed me away to 2nd. He have 1860 points. Jesus! Do I have bad luck or what? Last week 1674 was enough for first and this week 1770 is no good

1st 500$ 2nd 300$ 3rd 180$ and so on... Regular speed 6max I have played. You get 39 points for 1st and 21 points for 2nd.

Great performance jovica. I hope you succeed in your goals with this poker challenge. Always enjoy seeing the Mobsters or reading about their games, competitions and finishes.
If you don't mind, what do you get when winning in this division or do you move up to the next level after finishing 1st at this level? Just curious as to what the goals are. Good Luck!

That's awesome work regardless man. You only just got pipped. $300 buckaroos ia better than zero and now you know you can whip it on the SNG's, so hopefully next week if you try it you can do even better and get first.
That's great you can switch it up between HU and SNG's and still dominate, a lot of people aren't comfortbale in several different games.

so how's your husng are doing- you mention that u had a terrible month, but u r still way in the green right? and if this is the case, then what made you change your regular playing flow- and why did u decide 6max was something good for u- would be nice to hear your thought on those questions. btw very good run nonetheless

Im brak even in last 500 games and simply got sick and tired of not hitting anything and when hitting then getting set ups and bad beats. So I got really frustrated and decided to give it a little break. But Im on good way to be gold star so decided to play 6max instead for some time. Thats it.
------------ Oh, almost forgot, I stayed in 2nd place. Week is over.. So 300$ and ticket to 50 000$ battle of planets triple shootout (ticket worths almost 100$)

Nice one Jovica.Too bad you lost 1st place at the end of promotion, and lost 200$ more but 2nd place isn't bad. You must earn some playing all that sng's plus 300$ prize isn't bad for week at all.One more time well done and wish you to continue to take their money
I played 6 max 1,5$ tourneys and always have nice start but from the moment i start to count how much more points do i need ,well after that i start to make mistakes and I never finish at top places

After reading this title i thought: "This must be a nice sensation. And this guy decided to put it here on a forum? I usually don't know leaderboards nicks, lets see if i know this one". And who is he? jovicakralj, who else? Congratulations, you are doing very well, but the fight between the top is tough, GL!

Respect
It also meansyou made a nice profit which is awesome. Offcourse the $300 bonus plus $100 ticket is nice to get some respect. I can only say keep going, maybe less cashout and more build that roll
