Okey. What am I up to ? I was trippin 3 days so I had a great time without poker :f_cool:. Back to old rails I am still playin' 2$ sngs not because of the lack of confidence but because of the high level of retards at 5$ that just make me sick when I lose some nice part of my bankroll there. Still, 4 days before I just lost 100$ - both playin omaha 5c/10c and these 5$ so I decided to withdraw some money to my moneybookers where there are safe :).

What more? I still think a lot of people collude at this sngs that just make me sick. I mean, when 2 people from France, UK, Greece register into the tourney in one second ? WTF ? What a coensidence. I mean, it's ok for US, CANADA maybe. but these when it's conserning these and other smaller countries I just unregister :X . Maybe I am too paranoic, what do you think ?

Anyways my bankroll is 710$ (MB + FT)now and I am proud of it _biggrin:.

It feels great when I see some of the first posts where I ways playin for cents ...
Since I am really tired no more words and letters today and I hope, u will enjoy this post and the others will be more and more interesting.

Keep us posted with your SnG evolution over here. Best of luck! :f_p:

No mooooooore?!

Ok, I decided to give up from playing sngs for a longer time, I just feel I dont have the edge and, I got little bit bored by playin autopilot. So I played some omaha 5c10c and lost something so I decided this is not game for me either.

What I am up to now? I started playing 25c/50c Fullring LIMIT :f_love:.

I am up 135 BBs in 2184 hand = ~6 BB / 100 hands. I dont know if its good or wrong. But still I am stuck in last 1000 hands.

Some of my stats:

VPIP: 19,8%
Agressionfactor: 1,4
WTSD: 37,2%
W$SD: 51,1%
Fold SB: 85%
Fold BB: 62%
Open raise late position: 40%

I dunno what these numbers mean :) so, maybe if there's someone in the crowd who would like to help me with my LIMIT game, just let me know/write ur skype or anything and I will contact you.

Bankroll: 780$

I should writei something after two weeks of silence. I am just moving from here to there (limit, nl, sngs, cash, omaha) and I am trying to find the game that I would really love to play as a change for sngs. I blew up 200$ not really because of tilt, bad beacause of bad run :(. Fortunatelly I managed to recover.

I have tons of stuff in school, I failed 2 exams. I have 5 more exams to do, so not much time to play right now but I am preparing something special when the summer holidays begin, I hope I will manage to do that.

Bankroll: 820$$

I wanted to tell u about the

What more? I still think a lot of people collude at this sngs that just make me sick. I mean, when 2 people from France, UK, Greece register into the tourney in one second ? WTF ? What a coensidence.

I used to do that a year ago or so with a friend of mine,in ring games though not sngs,pokerstars e-mailed us both and asked us to never do that again cause even if we not cheat it looks suspicious.So dont worry much about that,it is detectable.

Good luck mate

Hello everyone ! It's been quite a while!

Well I wil lstart with live poker. I played today 3euros buy in (10e rebuy + addon). I was staked the 3 euros by one of my friends (40% for me , 60% for him). There were 41 players and prizepool something about 720euros.

I finally managed to finish 3rd for 104euros (I kept 40euros). I was lucky in some hand while shortstacking the final table (still got the money in with the best hand). The crucial hand was where we were 3.
Sb called, me on BB pushed all in. Sb was about the same in chips as me and he said he does not care. He shows Q6 and I had A6. Flop brings him one queen and turn gives me a flush draw. Neither ace or a club came so I was busted. Second took 171 euros and the first 271euros. So, big pitty.

Online poker:

I tried omaha cash game, 5$ shorthanded sngs and NO LIMITCASH GAME.
I decided that the third named, will be the game I will dedicate all the poker time to. I had some ups and downs.
I also played the 50K Madness freeroll and I finished 1036th while knocked out by even stack who had AQ , I was holding AK. Turn brings him the queen an I have a flush draw. Something like the situatian that happened in the live poker tourney. I hit nothing on the river and get knocked out for 5$ :P.

Still pretty happy with my performance. I hope some of my friends will decide to stake me while playing live poker :).

Online bankroll: 1130$
