Hi guys. Yesterday i went down to 84$

Today i started playing again. Now up to 92$

Will update when i finish my session.


Finished yesterday with 106.96$
Today played another small session result

BR:116.38$
FPP:1854.88


Re hi.

Thx for the replies :)

Y.

So today afternoon finished a session of sngs 20multi-tabling for 2+1/2h and 1/2h cash nl10;

BR:168.23$ (+7.4$ in cash and the rest in sngs)
FPPS:1952.02

Could anyone tell me what to do with the FPPS? Go for 5000FPPS bonus or go for the sattelites which i could because i would use T$ for sngs?


Today's session ended well

BR:185.43$
Fpps:2008.9

So still no one watches my blog and can't tell me whether to use sattelites for my fpps?

I think you get a better deal buying into satellites with your FPPs than directly going for cash in terms of FPPs/$, if you want the cash though it could be better to just take the money to add to your bankroll and allow you to maybe move up a limit.
Can I also suggest you might like to try the $2.20 180 mans as a very profitable game, especially 20 tabling as that will help protect against tilt with the crazy fish.
Good luck ;)


Hi.

Thx very much for replying. Your repplies really motivate me. So I did sattelites today.Won 3 and so = +33$.

Now having BR >200 I'm playing 2.20 180 man and because they are slowly starting, I'm also playing 1.1$ 45 man.


By the way in SNGS/tourneys i don't tilt at all because i understand very well the high variance.

Today's session:
2.20$ 180
1.10$ 45
+9 280FPP Sat win 3
Result:
BR:255.15
T$:19.80
Fpps:72.90

So scored today +90$ (one 2nd place in those 2.20$)


Played NL10 yesterday and again no success in that.

I don't know mb I'm not made for cash games.

BR:238.40
T$:17.60
Fpps:93.38


After an up and down day:

BR:234.10$
T$:6.60
Fpps:180.66


Hi mate!

I wish you luck and succes!

Its really better to stick to one style of game. Switching between NL cashgames and sngs too often is no good for you.

But no matter what you focus on, try to learn and learn and learn =)
Posting hands and watching videos should help a lot.

Keep it up!


Hi Juice and thx for the reply. I really enjoy a lot playing sngs. Actually i play NL games only when I'm expecting someone to come home and I won't have time to finish the sngs.

The last update I'm up 70$ more and now:

BR:293.41$
T$:0
Fpps:177.34

At this rate I have like 30$/hr which is huge for me and I'm enjoying it. I have this rate because I don't play a lot and I don't tilt at all after bad beats while playing 20tables.

I don't rly know how to track sngs with ptracker. I did import them but then how to get the money places and the tourney history rly can't do it + it takes a lot of time. Usually I see my bad pushes cause I'm not playing 50+tables but only 20 and watching videos on sngs rly help me.

Feedback and questions are always welcome.


So hi again.

Today I played a huge ammount of poker. Well not for a long time though.

So i played sngs and went down to 200 then up to 284$.

Then swithced to NL10 and played 16 tables for like 2.1/2 hrs and now:

BR:292.71$
Fpps:454.74

This will be my last gold status month because of the volume (i guess)
this is if I am not on a huge upswing and play a lot of sngs. :)


after another nl10 session 16tabling :

BR:332.10$
Fpps:512


Another sng session 3.25 45 and 2.20 180

br:321.65$
fpps:52.74 (lost 2 - 280fpps sattelites)


I wish you the best of luck.
From my own experience, I can tell you that it can take some time and will be swingy, but it should be worth it. Watching Videos from Hasenbraten for NL has helped me a lot when I got started on BSS. I also quite like Ge5Sterne, not sure though if he makes videos for the english comunity too (I am a German native speaker).
One thing that you might want to consider is the rake on the microlimits. In theory, I think in order to learn poker you need to learn BSS, but due to the rake on NL5-NL10, compared to NL25 and above, it might make sense to boost your bankroll by SSS up to a limit where you can play NL25.
Maybe you are already considering this?
Cheers, SallaMC


Actually I saw that the rake on cash at the microstakes is huge and that's why I'm playing sngs right now. I'm only playing cash when I don't have enough time to finish the sngs. So I will boost my BR by sngs and then I'll see if it makes sense to play nl25 or whether it's better to continue with the sngs.

Right now with the br 300+ I'm playing 2.20 sngs and 3.25 sngs.
Hope it won't be long till 625$ where I will be able to play nl25.

Respect for the repplies which are rly motivating. Hansenbraten is a very good person by posting so many videos and I'm watching and rewatching them consistently and gesterne is making english videos now. He is quite interesting too but I prefer Hansenbraten.

That's it for now. Will be updating the results of my session which is going on right now.
