Agree with you guys but is not like i play that way usually.
​

Not sure how this is relevant? Just trying to make the most profitable play we can at all times.

Well is relevant because hand was not posted for review on first place, i know was not played right, but thanks

 

[Logan2]

Sorry if that come up harsh, what i mean is that i know that should 3b there, and also know that you guys just trying to help.

[Matt Vaughan]

Gotcha, no offense taken haha

Though keep in mind that any hand posted, whether intended for review or not will probably accrue some review

 

[micromachine]

bankroll is now $470 ($426 + T$44). Here's my current plan:

Off peak times: 12 table 5nl
Peak times: 12 table 10nl when BR > $300, and 10 table 16nl when BR > $480.

Might mix a couple of 16nl tables in with the 10nl tables if I can find fishy ones. Did this yesterday and it was fine, I changed the colour of the felt on the 16's to make it easier.

Sounds like a great plan. Good luck!

And great tip about changing the felt on the different tables. Thanks! Never realised that could be done. Thought you had to change them all.

 

[micromachine]

Thanks! Yeah it really helps, I started doing it because I play the hyper SNG satellites at the same time as cash tables sometimes and need to remember that I need to shove AT rather than fold it lol

 

[Matt Vaughan]

I played a bit on BCP last night again. Was just 2-tabling once again (HUD-less, since I don't have tracking software for non-Macs), and then just 1-tabling for a while. But I went up something like $60.

Def not complaining about running hot (cause I def was), but it's also that players weren't giving me any credit much at all and I had people stacking off as light as AJo and 66 preflop at full ring...

It's a shame the traffic is so bad.

 

[Yoshimiii]

Sorry I made a mistake, the 235FPP sattys are for the Sunday Storm not the Sunday Million.

Yoshi, yeah you unregister and then you get 11 tournament dollars (T$11), which you can either use to play tourneys OR sell to a tourney player for 99% of their value. Plenty of players here on CC willing to buy your $T and it's easy to sell them through the Stars software, an option in one of the drop down menus.

I had a go at the 235 sattys but they are all hyper turbo's, isn't this a disadvantage for us as they are mainly shove, fold? or are they still even with this factor the best value for FPP's?

edit: I did 3 of them and lost all 3 lol.

 

[micromachine]

Not really, it's not hard to cash 1/3 of the time just need to pick your shoving hands and spots wisely. If you can cash in ~1/3 of them they are way better value than the FPP cash rewards you can buy.

Sounds like things are working nice, glad for you man good plan.

What time are the peek times?

You are playing 10nl right?, so 6 buyins up, great. lol on the 1 tabling though, how you guys manage the lol player pool/software/cashouts, etc. should be really tough for you americans to not have many options where to play.

Agree, i think i have 40% itm on those, peelo Spreadsheet posted above say 45%itm.

Thats the 2011 tab, I only recorded playing 22 in that part so obv some good variance, 2012 i'm running about 34% ITM, its very swingy but its easy to cash in 1/3 and makes fpp's worth that bit more.

I've also spent 1500fpps on a ticket to the stars VIP party this year though so all in ive done alright from the rewards scheme this year, althought I'm not going to make my 2nd $50 stellar reward as its like 2k vpps away

That part sucks, last year i also miss the $50 SR by less than 200vpps, by the time i notice was too late. I agree on reset SR yearly, but would be great if the one already clearing could stay active.

I was mixing 5, 10, and 25nl, but usually I play 10nl with the occasional 25nl table.

And I was 1- and 2-tabling cause I couldn't use a tracker HUD.

 

[Logan2]

Talking about Stellar Rewards, only 9vpps more to reach my next SR of $10. I guess gona be the last one this year.

Evenings UK/Europe time when the most players (and fish) are online.

40% is v good! Looking at the graph I posted I have cashed in 39/121, which = 32%. It's enough to make them considerably better value that the cash rewards.

How many vpps have you earned this year?

My goal for next year is to hit 9k, think ive done about 7.5k ish atm and its pretty annoying that I won't have a hope of hitting the 2nd $50 reward

is it 800 vpps for the 50 reward or 750? on my lobby it says I have 450 of 750 and then in my Bonus status it says 450 out of 800?

 

[micromachine]

I'm also going to miss out on the next $50 Stellar and it SUCKS, need about 2500 VPP, aint gonna happen.

Stellar rewards are different from bonuses.

You get $10 stellar rewards every 750 for the first 5000 VPPs, then when you hit 5000 you get a $50 stellar reward, then a $50 every 5000 after.

So if I hit 800 vpps by Dec I would get 20 from bonuses and 50 stellar reward?

 

[AlfieAA]

@pocket, i think you need to be on silver star bud before you get the $50 stellar reward

 

[micromachine]

If it says you have 450 of 750 for the next Stellar Reward you earn 300 more VPPs this year to get it.

If it says you have 450 of 800 for you next Bonus increment you need another 350 to get that. This wont have the same time constraint though, you my have longer to unlock you bonus.

VPPs you earn will go towards BOTH things simultaneously, so if you earn 350 you'll get the bonus and the stellar

 

[micromachine]

@pocket, i think you need to be on silver star bud before you get the $50 stellar reward

No you don't, you need to be Silver to get the $50 FPP cash reward, which is different from Stellars

 

[micromachine]

....but don't buy that anyway lol , spend your FPPs on 235FPP Sunday Storm Sats.
