I don't know the other games well. What i do know is SSS is boring. Some say you just multitable but multitabling is BAD for a beginner or someone who's not used to this type of play. So If you want an interesting game play FL. It's so more complex than what I thought. After I failed playing SSS i tried this one game. And I think, it's awesome. And all the time you'll spend mastering the FL SHC will keep you busy as hell. I don't know what comes after you master the SHC but I guess it's easy money with no breaking heart!!! The downswings are rare due to the greatness of the FL SHC.... soooo complete!!! You play more hands than SSS too
Go FL go... go go go go!!!!

I'm pretty good until I play 700+ hands. But I only play SSS right now, and i can't play less then 6 tables or i get bored. I play 8-9 normally but sometimes 6. I just find the idea of winning interesting. Winning money for something i enjoy playing is pretty damn awesome IMO. SnG are a fun way to kick it up and still play poker i find. If i really get bored of cash table sss but still want to play I go to VC poker (cuz they gave me $20) and play SnG's.

Hi,

U R adrenalin junkie.
Go parachuting, dodge cars, use drugs, or roulette is a good game.

If u want exciting poker then use all of your money, including savings and Mortgage payments for next month, and play BSS at the highest stakes u can afford and bluff all the TAG's it'll work for a while, enjoy.

I think u get the point, or maybe u don't.

WINNING IS FUN, so learn to win, SSS is boring, so avoid.

Learn to play BSS well, and if u don't mind losing your Bankroll occasionally, then by all means step outside of conventional Bankroll Management practices occasionally, especially when your game is really dialed in well.

I did and turned $80 into $1100 in 12 hours.

Conversely I also lost $800 in 20 minutes once.

Cheers and Wealth

oh man; you're soooo wrong :rolleyes:

- FL SH has probably the biggest variance
- downswings of 300 BB are normal (500-1000 happens to great players too)
- if you're playing with 500BB (recomended) BR, you can lose 10-20% of that in 1hr session even you play your A-game ... variance...

btw: I can write down open raise chart after 6 beers without any mistake, so winning has nothing to do with mastering that small table....

Hmm if I play one table I just do other stuff too.

Especially important for MTT. You bore yourself to death in the beginning Especially double stack tourneys.

Most exciting for me right now is multi tabling NL SH. But I can only play 2 tables.. stupid laptop has a too small screen :(
Besides if I play 4 tables SH I make more mistakes. 2 tables + browsing the web is enough.
