Ty guys, yes doomdy is right, except it's more like 80 hands pr table pr hour I do around 300 hands/hour. Normally with 2 tables NL200 and 2 tables NL100 but here I just started at new site and had only deposited 600$ so I did 4 tables NL100 and now im greedy enough to think damn why didn't I play NL200 or atleast my normal mix of tables
Haha shokaku I will wait untill Patrik has broken his confidence .......or maybe in 10-20 years or just NEVER....guess the last one is the most likely
Yes it's 25 ptBB/100 ....3,5-4 times my normal winrate I could easily get use to it, but I know I shouldn't im just running HOT. I get really good cards they all hit and opponent hits enough to pay, rarely anyone gets better cards but when they do I'll outdraw them

Doomdy that's sad but everyone get those months....have you checked what caused it.....bad runs? Bad runs + crying calls? Tilt? Std poor play? Non-stop setups? Remember all bad runs have an end
It's good to check if you were ment to have a bad month or if it was self-inflicted. But if a bad month is breakeven+rakeback/bonus then it's not that bad

I am not playin my best poker true But i also get the feeling many people know the ''trick'' of doubles (tight), so average players getting better imo.
But i must admit i can play better then this
So break even plus rakeback/bonus is sometin like $500 a month for me. That not a profit for me that makes me happy But hey doomdy still amateur so need to learn But allmost have my 10K point so thats makes me happy (Damn i push edit-button too much )

Woo hoo, the beers are on M3 tonight :} NIce going, all the whining hass paid off and now you can sail :} I think its time you do a little asking and get yourself a sponser, shame your not a girl I could get you 1 next week, but seriously go ask the question you might be suprised at the answer
Good job M3. Personally speaking I don't like to show this kind of statistics just to avoid to change positive karma ( you know I'm italian so I'm supersticious too ) but money is yours

Posted by M3turbo: I know that feeling and allways remind my self that it's meaningless to work and make your A-game better if you mostly play your B-game
You talked about going over to normal S&G's....did you test the water
Yes i tested the water, i played many 6seaters with good results, but its very different to doubles and need to concentrate more, so really tired after a session Also trying to learn how to use the HUD in a good way. Also signed up at SitNGoGrinders watching the vids but didnt payout yet
But i get the feeling my time will come, will get there, will climb the stakes, am convident i will get there

Yeah I could imagine that the dynamics are totally different and you need much more focus on the game. Not only because it's new to you but also because you need to make more decisions(play more hands) than the extreme tight style I imagine you play at the doubles. Perhaps it's good to play less tables untill you feel comfortable on your new turf.
HUD will become your best friend especially if you often play regulars, against players you don't know it's hard to use it for anything else than a quick rough idea of his game......like his vpip/pfr-af. .

Ofcourse you build a 10K$ bankroll nothing can stop you if you keep your tight brm. Which games are your goal?

Yes dynamics are totally different, however (small sample) my 6seater profits were better then my 10seater regular profits, i think my game in future will be full ring regular sng. Suits me better i think.
Yes HUD is great, but for now only use it when i decide to steal or not, is he tight and position yes any 2 ect.. But i know the statistics can be more usefull.
My goals for short term are grinding low stakes to get 20K end of this year and become a better poker player with help of instructial vids. I am allmost sure my next pokerroom will be PokerStars cos PKR is problably too small for me in future and i like PS very much My goals for next year are $50/$100 stakes and i definitly have to go too some of the bigger pokerrooms cos this stakes dont fill up at PKR, and if they do they are filled with good players
Tell me ur goals Turbo? Ur planning move too NL400? I think u can do it

Wow doomdy you are up early or like me never went to bed
Yeah I would def play at Stars too if it wasn't for the danish tax office.....oh and the missing rakeback.
My goal is to "crush" NL600-1000, lately I've been pretty lazy and haven't had motivation/discipline to grind towards the goal. Only doing 4-5 hours pr day max but hey enjoying life is important and im very good at it But im a strong believer that nothing is impossible for the man that carries the will in his heart and I do so I'll def get there. Just have to get my self together and put some effort in it.

Posted by magatt966: sorry for my ignorance guys, can u help me what is HUD?
Sure HUD stands for "heads up display". If you got a tracker you can get it to display opponents stats beside his name
You can try pokertracker and holdemmanager for free in a limited time period, go to their website.

Hehe easy now doomdy it's not in the near future but my final goal. Haven't really calculated on when I could exspect to get there(which I should). Im never gonna touch NL1K with a bankroll under 50K$ actually prefer 100K$

Yes i think $40K is far too risky, maybe not risky but thing is you get 'scared money''. But NL1000 wow wud be very nice to play this profitably Also nice rakeback
