Re:$2.20 turbo 180 man SNG's on stars.....
Yeah man, sometimes there is literally nothing you can do, you can't win with the worst hand, the best hand, flips.... nothing you're right, you just have to believe it'll turn at some point. gl

Re:$2.20 turbo 180 man SNG's on stars.....
I swung 250 buyins and had a 200 buyin swong lately too, with prolly about five 150 buyin swings in there. Variance is sickening sometimes, as you will prolly testify to judging by how this month has gone (for both of us).

Re:**Micro MTT Team Competition** ©
I wasn't all that up for this a couple of days ago, but omg im sooooooo ready for it now! Gonna spend the next hour or so sorting out the schedule, and then catch my last decent bit of shut eye for the next 7 days, ready for 2moz. Gl to my team mates, I reckon we have a decent shot, and good luck to everybody really. This is the best competition to be involved in, it's a lot of fun (thanks to Blonde), unless you run bad for the week, then it can seem like the worst. So hopefully everybody gets a fair crack at it by running at least half decently (however unlikely that is), and I mean ...

Re:**Micro MTT Team Competition** ©
Sorry if it's already in the thread, but when is the registration deadline' I think I'm gonna play it now, I've got one potential team mate but I can't get hold of him just now. If there are any latecomers who need a team and are good winning players who can put in a TON of volume, just send me a PM, we're both quality players (one of us has taken this down in the past) and can both put in mental volume.

Re:**Micro MTT Team Competition** ©
Haha fair play, i did kinda bail on u kids last time out. Once upon a time a "So you can quit again" comment would've had me steaming and I'd have played just to prove a point, but im afraid to say I'm getting old now, I'm not sure I have the fight in me anymore But who knows, maybe that dig will hit me at some point 2moz and I'll come out fighting once again, you may have just lit the fire! All joking aside, gl 2u too man, I'm sure you'll make a good fight of it, especially with your 'bread and butter' FullTilt 3r included this time out, since ...

Re:What kind of mouse do you use?
Yeh logitech for me too. Small enough to fit inside your hand without over-streching your hand span. Btw for those peps having problems with carpal tunnel, what do you think about resting the mouse on a firm cushion instead of on a mouse pad on a hard desk' I've been doing this for a year now, it isn't as fast as on a pad but if you up the speed of the pointer, the speed and control issues are minimal imo and waaaaaaaaaay more comfortable. I never had a problem with aches and strains but adopted this method as a preventative and thus far have not had even the slightest problem.

Re:Boku87 going for round 2 - $5 to $100k in 100 days
Yeh that is true, not sure how it compares to winnings at his regular stakes playing the same number of hours though. I wish him luck all the same.

Re:Boku87 going for round 2 - $5 to $100k in 100 days
Much respect to Boku for what he achieved, I honestly don't know how he did it. But is this now starting to get a bit ridiculous' Why does he feel the need to do another one of these' It does smack of an attention whore a little bit. That said, I will most definately be following it again. :)

Re:The $4.40's are hillarious!
Well mate, if you're frightened of loosing 60 chips by raising AK/AQ then I just don't know what to say''' I assume you don't mind limp calling that hand and loosing 100 or more when you miss' So basically you'd rather loose slightly more by limp/call/folding and in turn relinquish the betting lead, and become the passive caller' People have tried to help you, but I guess some people are beyond help....

Re:The $4.40's are hillarious!
8ROM There is no use argueing that limp calling AK/AQ in any level is optimal, because it just isn't in most situations, and nobody who knows the game is going to agree with you. I think I learnt this within the first week of playing tbh. Reading what you've said, it sounds to me that your leak (for want of a better word) actually stems from poor postflop play, because you're worried about how best to play the hand when the flop comes down 872. Remember that AK/AQ type hands are essentially drawing hands, and just like when you've raised 78s in lp and the flop comes AK2 ...

Re:So far for the year at Poker Stars...
600 isnt even close to enough, especially for turbo's. You probably need at least 3k games, or maybe 10k+ to give you an accurate reflection.

Re:Time for a break...
I know how u feel. I've been playing for 4 years, but in the last 5 days or so I've never seen anything like it, I've run bad before, but this is ridiculous, I honestly don't think I could run this bad in one week even if I played another 50 years...just as I write this i just took another 2 outer!!!!!!!!! zomg pokerstars btw Is there anyone who thinks this sites not frigged'

Re:2.20s to 7.70s 180 man on stars
Definately higher than 60% is doable, I think probably 90-100% could be sustainable (by the very best) over thousands of games ($2), but I can't see 120% being done, basically due to the nature of turbo's. Unfortunately I don't think any decent player has played enough to find out.

they'll probably cut your roi by at least half, so obv variance will be double or more

Re:Clean May $4.40 180-180s Scoring Thread
I was under the assumption that a rebuy would mean a brand new block of 180 games, meaning a brand new competition for those who want go for it no' I wouldn't advocate rebuying to have double the chance of posting 15 scores for the same comp. Have I got this wrong' EDIT: Yeh I guess they mean rebuying to post your best block of 180 games. That obv needs to be agreed before the comp starts.
