Cant really complain at the second hand, i was only a 97.63% favourite _biggrin:

Despite these hands losing i won my fair share of flips today which has seen me into profit.

Alltime Graph...

Its no fun running this much below EV but im still in profit which can only be a good thing. As soon as the cards go my way im confident the ROI will change dramatically.

Starting Bank:$1000

New Bank: $1072.51

Withdrawn Profits: 128.46

Thinking of buying SNG Wizard with next months Iron Man Mid-Year bonus, something that is sure to benefit my game.

Hello all, glad to get a day off work so i can get in some serious volume, its been a slow week for Poker.

Just realised my last post didn't show my opponents hands, first one he had Kh7d, the second Kc8c. Awesome plays!

Noticed the times you play makes a huge difference, the fish are certainly out in the day, while the sharks must sleep :P

Week 1 Rakeback: $32.80

Hi, nice blog!

Check the forum, there are a few other blogs too.

Btw, why do you post bb/hands graphs if you play Sngs? It's not significant in Sngs unless you only play for chip value instead of $ which is bad. So even very small bb/hands number on high blinds are normal. :) Overall maybe you should try HEM, most Sng players use that.

Hey, i.m a 6max sng player. Played like 3k 13$ turbos for 4.5% roi. If you want we can share ideas, learning material, etc, because 6max sng is rather unexplored teritory. How about you? Stakes/roi? By the way, interesting withdrawal method, i think 2% of buy-ins is equivalent with 2%roi on your games.

Hi there dydukas, wish i had gone with HEM in the first place, don't fancy investing again to be honest, maybe in the future if things pick up a bit. I use this graph to see how im running, just got to keep the yellow line going in the right direction!!
