Half of February imo. Not quite 40K hands. :joyman:

Starting to feel weird about the fact that there's so little action at 10/20. How do you move up when there's no action?

Don't all the pros table select between 5/10 10/20 25/50 (and up)?
Maybe you can make enough at 1knl to eventually table select between those 3?

you're close to the top, Chris.

You should probably table select on different sites at this stage. There is some action at that level on FullTilt.

EDIT: sick graph, btw.

What do you mean by 60/40 each tourney? You mean if we assume no stealing/coolers/etc. and every hand you just straight up flip 60/40 until either you win or bust what would your roi be? That's possible to figure out if you include the payout structure.

I mean in HU sng's. first hand of every 1, you push all in and are called and its a 60/40 in your favour
 
hmm, seems I spilled coffee while editing :hmmmm:

Got close to another $4 180 man final table. But I was short, pushed AKos and couldn't hit vs QQ so I went out in 10th.

Shame that none of my AK's and AQ could win vs the pocket pairs in that tourny but I still got close anyway 🙂
 
who says you need the nuts to stack in omaha? Me and a reg have some fun

im 100% certain he doesnt have a queen on flop, actually put him on spades, and thought the only way id get the rest of his chips is if he shoves turn of which i was calling all but a spade
 
alright time to move again

I will not lose 23 buyins this time, no i won't

no i won't no i won't dammit, LISTEN TO ME!!!
 
Chris that is one sick, sick graph...

What's your best month ever look like? or is this it?
 
Well the fpps are worth about $416 if you use them for like tourney satties. How much does that run in stores these days?

well by the concierge or 4k bonus fpps are worth 1.6c. Buy-ins to tourneys are about that and the satties aren't raked so are the same way.

Ah ok. Well I'm nowhere near concierge/supernova level.

I'm doing good to clear 5k vpps in a month right now 😀

so for me..it's probably either pick up the goldstar cash bonus or pick up some kind of item (I actually need a new dvd player anyway as the old one just died)

Unless I'm missing something obvious with the fpp's anyway

If you have enough the 5400 fpps to the million are good satties or the 210's to the 200k. For both you can just take the T$ and sell them (I'll take them at face value if you don't ever play tourneys). Both of those give an expected 1.6c/fpp and that doesn't even include any edge you likely have. Of course it does take time to play them.

OK..thanks for the input zach (and bw)

and yeah 100% agree with your sig.

Amazing to me how the people in government who are a pita to poker players are far bigger gamblers than we are.
 
I have to pay attention to when I'm getting tired and not paying the type of attention I normally do... God it's so easy to slip on that and not really realize it.


Anyways... Best day I've had in awhile! Was up +6 BIs at one point but because I went 0 for 6 on coinflips (mostly with short stacked idiots...I hate AK right now) and one suckout ended the day +3.5. I'll take it.
 
marvel at this hand someone posted in MTTc on 2p2. not sure of the odds behind something like this, but it's pretty incredible. i wonder how many poker players will even see this in their lifetime? has anyone seen anything like this before? set over set over set over set with 4 cards out:
