Re(4): My Story, maybe some advice? W/ Cliff Notes.
I personally enjoy their live videos. AJKHoosier video's are really good, umm I forget exactly which video's on the replayer helped my game, most of their videos are really good. I love aaaaaaaaa's videos a lot even though his voice puts me to sleep.

Re(4): My Story, maybe some advice? W/ Cliff Notes.
PXF has the most and probably best tourney videos. Cardrunners has some good ones too, Try the PokerSavvy Plus free trial, just cancel it before the 7 days are up.

Re(2): My Story, maybe some advice? W/ Cliff Notes.
PXF helped me not be such a nit. When I first started I'd just wait for premium's and then get desperate and lose a flip. It really helped me open up my game in the middle to late game. I dunno about some of the smaller sites as I only have memberships to Cardrunners/PXF and Pokersavvy Plus. I know Pokersavvy did have a 7 day trail which I tried out and forgot to cancel so you can try that and see if you like their videos (some of Jurolo's videos are petty good). If your paying for PXF with your poker roll then yea I'd wait till you have at least 2K, but there is a very good chance you will ...

Re(4): My Story, maybe some advice? W/ Cliff Notes.
Thanks for the advice I am still in school till the end of the semester, not sure what direction to go in after that. My major is film so I'm finding it not worth it to possibly be 50k in debt with a film degree. I do rail a lot of the big name players and it does help my game. I plan to start playing more on Stars but right now my Stars schedule is basically only the 10 dollar 20K grtd. Don't have much of my roll over on there. I also do play on trying to start sat. into the majors, I just need to work on my Sat. game as its not very good atm.

Re(2): My Story, maybe some advice? W/ Cliff Notes.
I agree with the last two but I've turned into a BR management nit, I had 130 or so buy-ins before moving up to the 24 dollar tournies. Well over 200+ for any other tourney I played.

My Story, maybe some advice? W/ Cliff Notes.
I've been a lurker/semi-poster on P5's and 2p2 for nearly a year and a half now. I'm also a low limit tournament grinder playing anywhere from 5-24 tournaments. Here's my story. I took a year off from college after my senior year after applying too late to the college I wanted to goto (Purdue). During this time I worked. Late one night I was watching ESPN classics and saw some WSOP from 2004. Almost immediately I fell in love with poker. I downloaded Party Poker and started playing freerolls. Somehow I forget, I ended up getting a free 50 dollars on there or so and obviously busted that. But ...

Re(1): mossified84 chipleader of the Majestic 2k
glgl TID. I got 2nd in the last tourney of the deep stack challenge for 2000 (200 buy-in). It was my first time there, nice room and the people in my tourney at least for the most part were pretty weak/tight. I believe they said first is 72K for the main. 140 some players I think. How many people are left'

Spot deep in tourney (Daily Double)
Alright, so I'm railing my friend and this spot comes up deep in the daily double. Him and someone else were neck in neck for best double finish. Hero has 36K at the 2000/4000 level. Been super tight. SB was just elimated so there is no SB, just him in the BB. Folds to the button who shoves all in with 60K or so. Standard 10 dollar player, no special reads. Hero has A/7, is this a call'

Re(1): guy limps in late position and you have the button
In low limit tournies, you shouldn't be doing that with any two cards for sure. Maybe top 20-30% of your hands, but definately not a hand like 5/2 suited. True you have the button, but at these levels nobody hardly ever folds bottom pair. The shove on the turn was bad as well especially after he checks to you, just check back there 100% but you shouldn't even be involved in this pot.

Re(2): FTP $10 Daily Double Last Longer............
out of both in the 200th's. Too angry/tilted to go back and look. Queens ran into Kings, and A/K no good against A/7. I'm done for a while asdjkf;askflaj;sdklfjsdlkf

Re(2): FTP $10 Daily Double Last Longer............
Still in both at first break. Only 1600 chips in A, 4500 in B would be 5600 but I play like shit today and everybody apparently hits everything against me and I can't lay down shit. Min-raise on button with a small pair = insta set flopper. Me limp 8 billion times today with pairs = no set all day. Still on raging monkey tilt due to other tournies as well, flopping two pair and the other guy flopping a set in the 3rebuy does wonders.

Re(1): What is your favorite tournament online...
I personally love the 10$ Daily Doubles at 9 EST every night. 10% of A don't buy in to B so theres extra value for the jackpot. I've also done pretty well in them, 3rd place 4 times. My new favorite tourney is the 24+2 26K grtd on FTP at 10PM. Played in it twice and cashed both times including a win, variance ftw.

Re(1): $11 Daily Fifteen Grand
I've final tabled and gotten deep in this before. Usually 2500-3000 people in it during the week. But its the epitime of a mindfield, during the late deep stages (9 tables and below even) the average stack is less than 10 big blinds and unless someone is just crushing the big stack usually has at most 25-30 big blinds It is a quick tourney though, I final tabled it and was out in 6th in 3 1/2 hrs with 2500 runners.
