I really like ss on tables because they are so easy to read if u do not get enough action loosen up a little bit play more suited connectors from late pos and the blinds ♦

As a BSS I know u do not extract much money out of them, but you can win, cause there are 70% maniacs and calling stations on mansion NL10, 10% SSS (using the SHC) and the rest BSS or TAGs.
If 70% are maniacs and calling stations why then the P/F at those tables is so low? I don't play there but when I look in the lobby I rarely see a table on NL10 with P/F>20%.

agree, they're killing me. but even more superbad players who call my aces with 5T and 98 and suck out.
sss is not fun to watch and is sometimes anoying but it works and that's the most important thing!
are you doing good table selection?
if you are i suggest you play 6max where there are less short stackers or try playing nl50 with more risk
Nice little thread that we've got here!
I guess my table selection must be really poor simply because I can't bother to wait for a seat at a good table. I simply seat at the first table available with 8 or 9 players.
Yes,thats kinda poor.You should also avoid joining long waiting lists(with more than one player already waiting),as by the time you joined, the fish will be gone and the regs will be there.Also, try to change your tables frequently if their style doesnt suit you(too tight,too aggressive).Another thing you can try is to sit at an empty table and wait for players - SSS players and regs wont be the first to join, as the table is empty and they prefer to wait for a juicy one.The first one that come are fish, then the fish quits,and SSS or regs come.Thats the cycle of table selection.You should definitely pay more attention to it though, me for example, although Im not playing in a big site and I sit at 1/3 of the tables on my limit, I take around 10-15 mins to table select, and I change them frequently.
advie by darkonebg is very very good
I'm using table selection software connected to my DB with datamined hands to select initial number of tables - and I join lots of them, then I'm sitting out until I get stats on my HUD a looks for big fishes, if they are there, I stay .. as other tables are showing, I will sit down and if there are more fishes or I have better position on them, I will switch the table for this one after I finish an orbit .. so I have at once lets say best 4-6 tables and I continually refreshing selection software if I have time between hands and joining waiting lists .. table selection is really THAT important .. with good tables you can at least double your winrate easily
I rarely play on tables as I play much better at MTT's but when i do i love the SSSer's. Most of them are pretty new to the game, most people get away from SSS once they have gained some experience/bankroll so they are usually pretty easy to take advantage of, as well most don't even stick to it properly making them even easier to exploit.
Personally I hate it, I know it is different on the internet but try doing that at a casino or any other poker room, someone who's money you won, then stood up from the table will clobber you.
ive done that, they deserved it (i mean, limping with 92s, calling my all in in the flop with only a flush draw) i only stood up and said "where's the cashier?"
