Interested in your style for these games, do you play entirely push/fold or do you mix it up more than that?
I've seen some sites advocating moves like limp/call and limp and go (sort of like stop and go). These seem too exploitable for me but wondered if you ever used them.
@SmileyPhil: limp calling is something I rarely do as I don't think it's that profitable. I will probably limp if bb is a shortie and I dont want to risk my stack against sb with a marginal holding. But mainly push/fold I punish limpers, they rarely punish me.
Another sick day. $15 stats are a big confidence boast as now I am virtually only playing them. So successful transition ♦. 1/2 days till I go platinum as well.
I also be-friended the highest earning regular at my limit and game, Thorndog1. It was quite funny we ended up HU and I recognised him from sharkscope, We ended up splitting the money because we thought it was EV$+ due to us been evenly matched.
Bankroll is now $2202
Going to chill out and play the $5 1/4 mmil. Got a runner in it as well so send me the monies $$$$
scrap the above...the inevitable happend
back down to $1950. Guess with moving up to $15 this is just a tiny swing. Sigh though I really was running like crap. dam I regret playing that session....
tomorrow I am in super grind mode because its last day to earn rake for friday so wish me fortune
i sweated a bit of that session... unfortunatly, if u cant win flips, it's going to suck for u when it comes to the ST's...
u ran bad man, but from what i saw, played well... good skill for the grind today!
hi richard,
gl with your goals. i used to play ST'S but with bad BRM and there only bein $3.50 ones available back then they soon made me bust and i was constantly depositing (ahh memories)
any way my games improbed alot fter finding this site and i deposited $30 on full tilt last night had a pretty good run on cash games and got upto $60 then read this blog you tempted me back in to the ST world
ive been playing the $1.50 games and have got upto around $80 but ive hit a block i cant get any further i win a couple then lose a couple and stay around $80 you got any advice on how i can bring my win rate up and boost my BR im itching to get back to the $3.50 but no chance till i have lots more $$$
thanks for any advice
Dont you mean win a couple of HUNDERED and lose a couple of HUNDERED.
If you dont put in a massive amount of volume you wont ever see any results.
Look at your results after about 1000 games then see if you are beating them

need more games than that IMO.
The variance was extremely hi at the $1 super turbos because you are going to get
called all the time by all kinds of hands and you have no choice but to push.

I dont mean for anysort of reference I am saying if you are winning after 1000 games then you can move up.
NOONE will ever know their ROI as it changes all the time
Dam swing continued but I am slowly coming out of it. Its more of a mentality check now. I need to get used to swinging hundreds of $$ now I am playin $15. Rakeback should be nice though $160 earnt for last week. And I am in super grind mode this week so hopefully I can just play my way out of this depression.
I took a shot at a omaha nl100 HU as well and lost pfff that was a bad thing to do whilst drunk. Guess I just wanted to be like my hero Ziggy :f_love:. Bankroll is $1750 so thats a drop of $500 ouch.
<<<<Well anyway I have reached Platinum Hola ♦. So thats one goal completed. $3k bankroll aim is looking very distant atm.
Iron man is promising as well
Looks Like I am going to have to increase my roll away from the felt with medals and rakeback.
Quick update played a few more games so I could get over 1000ftp and get my 5 medals. Good session which resulted in my bankroll been $1888.
richard im interested in learning super turbos and would love to get in contact with you via skype. maybe we can exchange super turbo advice for my normal turbo experience?
let me know if ur interested.
maybe we should setup a skype discussion group for turbo/ST sng's? there seem to be a fair few of us trying to grind out these damn things atm

Also another update played a couple of small sessions to finish today off and well...
Current Bankroll $2019 broke the 2k barrier again wooo. This time with lots of rakeback coming my way ♦:D:D
I'm also interested if anyone is going to make a study group in these things. Hit me up on Skype - it's in my sig.
id love to learn more about these games ive played a couple of hundred now and im still staying around the same level. id love to learn how you play them and see how it differs from my game but i dont have skype!!!
Hey I play sng Turbo's multitable them and want to improve a group would be awesome if anyone is going to make one add me !
Skype: vyciuks
Had this sickiest swings today. My bankroll went as low as $1600. Well anyway grinded through like a trooper and finished the day $50 up from yesterday. Current roll is $2074.
My graph for the last week. 600 game break even spell. Hopefully my blog inspires people that volume really is the key.
Well anyway since moving up to $15 I am easily reaching my 250 pokerstrategy points per day required to get to diamond. ( currently averaging 300 a day).
so I now have another aim to chuck in the mixer.
-Reach Diamond on this site within the next 25 days and sustain it.
-Gain atleast 1000ftp a day to get 5 iron medals more per day
O had to chuck in 2days graph... enjoy this
