Thank you man! As it was just a 73 player mtt it wasnt that long but I think it still took me around 4 and a half hours to get 2nd :f_cool:

Sorry for making no screenshot this time but here is my sharkscope screenshot where you can see the wins too :f_drink:

Spoiler

ROI still is close to 200% :f_cool:

Even if today was a bad day mtt wise as I didnt cash and made some mistakes I could manage to get some nice results in the cashgames finally with turning a small profit in the 10nl zoom games and the 20$ plo cashgames :f_drink:
Have a nice weekend and GL at the tables! :f_drink:

Hello man, nice start in ipoker.
Did you make any adaptations to play there? How would you compare it to Poker Stars?

Hey Orochimaro,
Thx for that. I think the biggest adaption I made was to play there and play 6max mtts if possible, because I feel that its easier to play
a recreational heads up with just 6 people in the pot and this way I can use my edge to maximize my profit.
Also it is way better for my motivation when I make a final table alot more frequently because of the small player fields in relation to Pokerstars.
But what your question probably is about:
my general game plan doesnt change to much I would say I still play my game basically and just make small adjustments when I know that
my opponent is a fish (bluff catching is very valuable with marginal holdings). So its just about the game selection...and I try to play 4 to 6 tables at max to be able to recognize the fish and adjust accordingly.

The game at Ipoker is more post flop orientated in general as some players call you pretty light. So if you have a solid post flop game
you can make a huge profit I think as they pay you off to much and bluff in bad spots.

In my oppinion a big difference is that even if youre on the final table you shouldnt try to put alot of pressure on people even if youre the bigstack because they dont focus on ICM so you should try to play pretty tight and let them bust because they will take flips even if they re 2nd in chips and are up against chipleader on the final table for example

I still try to hit big in some big tournaments but a good rule of thumb I found was to play 75 % smaller fields and 25% mtts of big player numbers

So if you think about transitioning to Ipoker you will probably find it really easy as the reg vs recreational ratio is more like a 7$ spin and go :f_drink:

Thanks. I had noticed that in ipoker the guys really like to play post-flop and I still dedicate myself to studying this in recent months. I even noticed that the fields are much smaller compared to other rooms, and the fish are always wanting to give you money.:f_biggrin: Thanks for the response and success there on your journey. Sorry for my engish!! :f_cry::f_drink::f_drink::f_drink:

Hey guys
I had a pretty bad week poker wise not because I was running bad
but just because I wasnt really focused on my game and not so motivated...
So I probably stop playing until I feel the hype again as I lost alot of money on the cash tables:f_mad:

So today started the Ipoker Festival I really tried to make it a nice start into this Event
but unfortunately I couldn`t do it with 2 times getting deep with a 9th place in the Festival Event #1 leaving as the bubble Boy and
a 10th place in another 6max Turbo mtt.
But I was really happy with my Performance at the table and especially with my concentration and discipline.
Good luck guys and enjoy your Weekend! :f_drink:

Hey guys had a busy week and couldnt play much ...just tried some 10$ zoom nlhl as I want to transform to cash to have a more or less steady income
I think I start to get better there even if I am losing a small amount yet but I think I am improving ...I will probably post a Graph of my cashgames tomorrow

So anyway today I played a small mtt session and finally managed to get to a final table again
Unfortunately I couldnt win it as I lost with 88 an all in pre against 78 off for the chiplead with the other guy rivering a straight 4handed :f_cool:
A bit later this guy knocked me out of the tournament in 4th for over 500$ so still a nice score:f_cool:

Start BR: 1000$
Current BR: 3677$
Profit: +287$

Hope you have a nice weekend! :f_drink:

By the way I won the ticket for the championsship by the missions freeroll lottery:f_cool:

Nice blog man.

Good to see that its possible to have success at mtts ;-)

I added you in comtool, perhaps we can exchange some experiences. Try to make some money with low mtts too with a little success.
