It's too tight early on. When the blinds are like $20 or $30 make some calls and add 50% to your stack. THEN play tight.

Hmmm i think its the other way around. Begin tight and loosen up when blind get higher. Basicly the same how you learn to play regular 10seater.

Bingo.
Actually even tighter. Survival is more important vs accumulating chips. You don't need to aim at first place in a DoN.

Thanks for the comments guys I updated first post, I think biggest bluff I ever made
doomdy, was the guy playing turbo $20 DoNs?
mirked, I noticed I posted too many bad beats but I like always get it in best in the DoNs cause they play so loose. Check out the latest hand, not a bad beat

keep up ur good work and I hope u get that banroll up to 5000$ by the time u get ur bonus released. My best was 1000FPP points in about 6days. I was 4 tabling 1/2NL and u basically get min 1FPP/hand usually 2-3FPP/hand. AVG was like ~2.5FPP/hand. But u need atleast 4k bankroll for that and preferably 5-6k bankroll.

B1gfoot, updated I've been struggling a little lately but hopefully I'll finish off strong.
Fr3nChi, $1/$2 is pretty high limits! Right now I'm getting like 100 FPP every 3 hours at 4 tables of NL25 6max, fast tables. My best is 600 FPP in two days and that's with working 14 hours too.

Struggling is ok as long as you not losing, you started strong so i guess you will finish strong too, you can even go back to SnGs to get the last of it, safe grounds, nice profit and a bonus released. Nice going, and thanks for sharing.

Thanks, B1gfoot. I noticed a lot more regulars at the 6 max tables so I switched to 6 max fast and found a lot more bad players. Only problem is, my poker tracker trial ran out. So I think I will try Holdem manger 15 day trial. Do you use a program and what limits do you play?

Iv noticed lots have switched to 6-man tables, still preferr 9 myself but i dabble. If you go to PT3 site and update you might get anouther 30 days, i think iv used them all now lol, currently using FreePokerDB, its ok i guess, couldent set it up had to get my bro to do it, PSQL or something was needed, its not the best but still in test mode, currently playing 50/1 nlh fr, 10/25 omaha fr 10/25, 6 man 10/25 nlh and when i get time i play any tourn going, still trying for WSOP, trying being the word not going so well, up and down and down and up lol. feels like time wasted.
