[Closed] Hlynkinn Poker bl000g

But you say you already play mtt`s for a backer right ?

Yeah I'm kinda not into putting money myself for tournaments since the swings are so big... I also feel like my play gets worse around the bubble if I use my own funds since I start to think "Well I'll be happy getting my buy in back"... But when I'm playing for a backer I intend to play more aggressive on the right times.. Abusing the bubble and stuff that gets me really far

Since you brought it up I'm gonna post my mtt's I've ran for the guy through this week:

Tournaments:
11. Oct: $3.30 6 handed limit: $9.50 - 12th of 192
11. Oct: $2.25 Freeze out: $3.27 - 31st of 363
12. Oct: $2.25 Freeze out: $0.00 - 208th of 461
12. Oct: $3.30 90 man KO: $1.00 - 14th of 90
14. Oct: $3.30 6 handed Freeze out: $16.20 - 9th of 270
14. Oct: $2.25 180 man freeze out: $0.00 - 28th of 180
16. Oct: $3.30 6 handed Freeze out: $8.41 - 24th of 374

Money for buy ins = $19.95
Winnings = $38.38

So well my backer can be happy about my run in mtt's this week

Ah ok , So you dont pay anything at all.. ?
Thinking in the way to grind a buy-in back is bad thats right, But i think you dont play in the comfort zone, you like money to much , or you bankroll is to low..

But.. To play 3 $ MTT`s with a bankroll of 1K you dont need any backers imo , really
You grind yourself up to 1k,, VERY GOOD..
Why play MTT`s fore someone else if you got enough money, and you are a winning player..
And please dont tell me you cant handle the swings with a 3 $ or even a 5 $ MTT , You can play 200 of them..

And what to do about the fact your freezing in the bubble stages, And dont play your A-game anymore..
euhm.. I dont know,, Maybe you can ask it to yourself..
What can i do to feel me more comfortable in the bubble , and even become a winning player in the bubble.. Yes you can make money out of it

Think about it`

I've once qualified for bronze and one a day... I went to the freeroll and got into the money for 25$... I was a bigstack tho and I lost a terrible hand that would've made me a chip leader... Far ahead from any opponent ... AKo vs AQs I got unlucky...

Free 25$ was nice with 30$ rakeback over the month

I am going for the metals and i am saving up for my own table.
I got about $1500 and I play the $26 Mtts occasionally.

you like money to much , or you bankroll is to low..

The fact Is I can't really grind $3 mtt's while playing with my own money... I will just think about it as 1/4th of a buy in and not play my A game

And mtt's ranging from $8 - $15 I just never feel like playing them... I know I'll get almost a guaranteed return on this money If i just take it to a set of sng's... So if my own money is on the line I either don't wanna play or I'll not play as good

Running these micro tournaments for a backer is imo Just a chance for me to get better at mtt's and learn for free :)... And if I get lucky and hit a final table I'm happy splitting $200 with my backer

What can i do to feel me more comfortable in the bubble , and even become a winning player in the bubble.. Yes you can make money out of it

This is almost my fav stage of a tournament... At least when I have a nice stack... I'll start abusing the small stacks and play really aggressive... I know this is the right way to play on the bubble but when I have my own money on the line I just look like a scared money leaking chips away....

And back to me liking money too much... Nah I don't think so... I think it's all about me loving mtt's too much and happy to run them tho their is no real profit... if there is no real loss either

and I'm also just running small mtt's to get respect and I'm hoping to get staked for some FTOPS event's in November if I have time to run them

I am going for the metals and i am saving up for my own table.

How's it going so far?

I was just thinking about how awesome it would be if you would get like 50% of all the rake created on your table...

I currently have only 40 medals and no idea what to save for I might buy the $26 ticket as soon as I reach 140...

i just started playing poker seriously so it will be atleast a year before I get my own table

Nice blog It would make things a little easier if you posted ur hands straight onto here, but I'm just lazy ♦

How do u buy ur own table on fulltilt? How much does it cost, it would probably be +EV in the long run, nice little investment.

What the Hell and Heavens! You can buy table on full tilt? Can you post a link to us?

EDIT: OOOOk, another not interesting promotion.. you just get reserved seat on that table... thats all

Here you go: Ironman Store - 750 Medals

I thought you'll get the rake from the tables :-)

I Can't win headsup

I'm back on my grind and everything seems to be doing good... except there's this small problem... I'm always cashing in 3/4 but I haven't won a HU all day... lol

Got few coolers and well few bad beats I don't know... It's atleast not going down... But I still don't enjoy seeing that large downswing on my graph lmao...

I know I should push the KK hand preflop but bigstack was a bully and it was on the bubble. I knew he would pay me off with any two if I just wouldn't push all in.....

And for the graph:

Been running so cold... Tho just break even for last two days or some... Not bad tbh...

kinda stuff stuff happens to me all the time, just before happened with KK vs shorties all in with 87o, they hit 2 pair, it was on the bubble but I still managed to make itm. I can't seem to win HU either, I think we need more heads up articles ♦ I know how u feel about your breakeven stretch, it really does get agitating after a while but at least you're not losing overall you've been on quite a heater for the duration of your poker career n not much of a downswing (just one), hope things go back to normal soon, good luck!

Yeah I should.. But I'm just trying to recover mentally after the big downswing I had pn the $11 sng's.. So $6 is good for a while now

Well it's mostly true tho I started off as a loosing player on $1.25 9 man sng's like you can see on graph.. 150 games and 25 bi down

It's kinda a big swing but after over 850 games played and regular $24 swings... that $25 swing in the beginning looks really really small on my todays graph

And for my funny looking stars graph:

You might not see many graphs looking like this
but well it starts at $25 because first time playing for real money on stars I some how managed to find myself on the final table of a 180 man sng...

Thanks all for your replys

I mean... What are they thinking.... are they just happy... "Well at best it will be a coinflip".... Is that all they think or? like whaddafuck... It's cool and all... If I was holding mariginal hands or a higher pocket pair... But getting called with 33 and 22 while holding AQ+ tilts me...

THEY WERE SUITED?...
But them queens only get you into troubles you know... If I were phil helmuth I would've made an awesome laydown ... I need to get a private coaching from him... Or maybe he should write a book for me "When and how to fold queens... by Phil Helmuth"

I'm playing on full tilt the rake is
$6 + $0.50... But it's just because you play a little less rake when playing turbo

the other one $6 + $0.25 is just a error in the convertor or something ♦

BR is over 1 000$,but still playng 6 $.What kinda bankroll managment do you use ?
