Wow my party poker T-shirt arrived already!!! I only ordered it a couple of days ago !

I might wear it to the "funk off" in London tonight

Poker wise...I'm playing sngs again, which as usual are sending me tilting all over the place

I'm really shocked about the new fair play policy that party seem to have started and am considering moving to another site

One of the main problems with moving is that the other sites I like are not sites that im tracked with ps

In my real life I made decision a few weeks ago to have a break from being a site manager and have some time working as a carpenter again, which was my original trade, its been tiring me out but I have really enjoyed myself, I had forgotten what a satisfying feeling it is to make something and feel proud of your work

Just dropped in to say hi ♦

We used to discuss MSS strategy years ago, don't know if you remember.. ♦

Best of luck!

Nice!

Sorry I didn't turn up on Skype for our gardening talk But now that you seem to be pokering again, hopefully we well see each other more often

(I have withdrawn from my bwin account. I think the only way to complain about this is to show we don't like it and they won't get our business. Their pockets seem to be the most sensitive part of their bodies ♠_evil: )

I'm so pissed off at ps mods sending me skype messages about me posting a link to Jbs book...when they let verneer send his links and he is just using ps for promotion link

If you dont like the way I roll ps just delete me X(....

I support ps 100% and have spent the last 2 years playing at crappy party poker to ensure I'm still tracked by ps.

BTW if the ban hammer hits me tonight....I fucking love you guys

playing DoNs at party this week...59 games played ROI= -13.1%... Ev Roi 1.4% (playing at party to reach bonus...then cash out ♦ )

Why does an ace always land on the flop, when you have reads that a loose passive calling monkey likes to flat with Ax

Managed to get my winrate this month up to 4% Roi and ev Roi 12.1% playing these crazy micro DoNs

I'm very pleased to see my graph going upwards at last as at one stage my ROI was minus 20% and my EV ROI was at minus 1.2%.

I'm using a very nitty style as recommended by many DoN strategies and finding spots to push based on the style and ranges of my opponents, it seems to be paying off, I can see the difference of how my strategy has changed and my winrate has moved upwards.

Hi Roo!
Niity is perfect for DoN.

I played a bunch of $11 DoN's to clear a bonus.
It was a touch above my BRM, but I figured I would abandon the project if I was ever down 3 BI. It never happened.

I ended up only up 3.

Do you use Holdem Resources Calculator?

You can use it for analysing DoNs of in the "Structure" field you put:
0.2,0.2,0.2,0.2,0.2

Then fill in the blind sizes and stacks.

If you leave the structure the way it is, then you get the wrong push/fold recommendations.

What amazed me at first, is that sometimes it recommends Fold All and sometimes Push any two.

I understood why once I saw some poor sap go out on the bubble w/ AA when all he had to do is wait a hand or two and one of the two shorties would be out.

Best of Luck!

Hey Vorpal ♦

Hows things in Canada

Have not been using much icm software at the moment although I know I should really be trying to use it more and more.

Yesterday I managed to grind my Roi up to 8.6% with my EV Roi up to 14.3% so I'm feeling very pleased with myself ( waiting for the doomswitch)

My main strategy is play nice and tight early on playing only premium hands with the occasional limping in of pp's against players I think will pay me off.

At these micro DoNs the amount of early phase limping is incredible, they love to pass their chips back and forward to each other, generally at least two players are knocked out before we get to the mid stages of the game, which I feel helps to even up the rake and also gives me better odds to cash.

I have been marking players once I have around 15 hands on them as green for limpy type loose player, orange for taggish, and red for tight. This has really helped me with table selection, its then easy for me to look at the table and sit with tighter players to my left and looser players to my right, which in the mid stages gives me a chance to steal some blinds and hopefully gives me an edge towards the end of the game.

Late stages I have been looking for good spots to pick up chips whilst reducing my chances of busting...here is a hand I just played where I felt it would give me a 5bb advantage of cashing ....first limper is a loose limper with a very high flop aggresion and second is a calling station... I felt just checking here pre could help me gain some extra chips if I hit but shoving would induce the calling station to limp call with his AX hands and I dont like flipping at this stage of the game ...
