So I got a deposit bonus on party poker so I deposit $30 to try it out again. Used to play there years back, but LHE. Quit the site cause the traffic got so low on these games. Now I saw that party has a turbo KO sit n go, so I decided to try that one out. Sit and go hero its called I think. I really liked the idea they had about the missions and achievements and at start I just grind missions actually, which was fun and motivating. But I then noticed that sit and go hero doesn't qualify as a sit n go in the missions for sit n goes so I gave up the missions, which was a shame, cause I liked it. Anyways, back to sit and go hero. I really like it, the KO part of it adds a dimension to it which is nice and motivating, since I have to play like 1100 to clear the bonus :f_ugly: but also that you can buy tickets for $20s and $100s seems really fun as well since you get to try out higher limits without a risk of your br. A $20 ticket is 160points, which is $80 rake. Difficult to give a % to it since it depends on how competitive you are at that level, but I like it and look forward to trying it out :f_thumbsup: With the deposit bonus as well its a pretty nice rake back :f_drink: to bad my account doesn't seem to track from the site anymore though :f_frown: was hoping to get a status upgrade here. But I guess you can't have it all! Been running really good to btw, I'm up $42 over a sample of 83 sit n goes :f_cool:

Moved to party poker for the upcoming month due to bonus and promotions... and a run good I guess :f_grin: It's difficult to say how a game is when you run good or bad. I've been running way over EV, but my EV is still really good, so it feels like the games are really good, talking about sit n go hero on party poker. But I can't say for sure if its easier than for instance spin&go on stars, since my experience is kinda the opposite, cause with spin&go I had a really rough start and the game seemed impossible. Anyways, I really like the format and at the moment they seem really profitable, so I'm gonna continue playing on party poker. I also have a bonus and they started the gladiator yesterday. Not sure if I'll get anything out of it. Was hoping to play $3s to rake more and get a cash price out of it :f_grin: Anyway. Gonna try to keep up a nice volume and clear the bonus and even get a $20 ticket which would be fun :f_cool:

I'm not getting strategy points of party poker for some reason. I think its because I registered to long ago and at some point pokerstrategy and party poker ended their business and at some point had a restart and the old accounts that got registered before this no longer gets tracked. If I'm wrong then please do tell :f_grin: Its probably the same with my 888 account :f_frown:

Graph

just realized that pt is tracking wrong :f_confused: my net won is a couple of $ higher than it should be.

He floaty, unfortunately your suspicion about the PartyPoker account is true.
Anyway, good run, and you will probably enjoy the won money also without SP!

Weekly report. Been playing some spin&go again for the campaign-thingy thats been on. Nice rake back :f_grin: haven't been going to good and I'm running above ev, which is nice, but I like to be +ev, which I haven't been :f_o: evROI ~-1%. Overall I'm still ~5% evROI so thats ok. Sit n go hero is still silly high ROI and evROI. :f_confused:

52 spin&go
54 sit n go hero

+$14.47 lakeback included

BR: $112.92

weekly report! Since I got a status upgrade I haven't really played any games but pretty much only watched videos and read articles since I only have it until today or something :f_confused: or so I thought. But I'm still silver so :f_thumbsup: I watched Collins guide to insane multi tabling and I realized I've done it wrong all this time, or so it would appear. I've always tiled table, even playing 16 tables I've had em tiled, and now I'm gonna try to stack and do hot keys this time. So I've set it up and I went down to $0.25 spins when trying out the new key binds and its still pretty confusing, but I like the idea of the static betting that you end up with and I'm gonna continue working with it. However, the number of tables won't be more than three at first, so not much of a multi tablet :f_p: but I need to learn my key binds first :f_grin:

Will be moving this coming week. Been living in a one room, 23 square meter, apartment for almost two years now with my girlfriend, and we're finally getting a "real" apartment, so thats awesome. But I probably won't be able to play a lot this week because of this. However, when the move is done I'll be able to set up my PC again (we haven't really had the space for a stationary computer) and from there on playing poker will be a lot easier. And game analysis will be a lot easier as well since I have my old programs for it :f_thumbsup: and I will be able to do two screens :f_cool: so I'm really looking forward to this :f_grin:

As for results this week. Only played 29 tourneys, and ended up loosing $5.75, but was super unlucky this time and my evROI was ~17% and I played well I think, so its alright. BR is now $107.17

So these last weeks haven't really been the most productive weeks in poker ;) been really busy at work up until now. But now I'm on vacation for two weeks so poker isn't really on the agenda. However I still managed to play some yesterday. I also played some LHE which was fun. There are not a lot of tables running any more, but I managed to get 4-5 games going at one time, playing 0.05/0.10 and ran very well :f_grin: I ended up doing -$0.45 though all in all with the spins added to this :f_mad:
