So i'll make an UPDATE of my current situation!
I've been 17 tabling on stars, almost ready to move to 20.
Played quite a few games, was running pretty sick at one point, but i really like the structure, because even if i loose a lot of these sng, all i need is a few top places and break even. This happened for quite a while but I got used to it after a while.
A few notes on my behalf:
Never look at the results after the table disappears because i loose time. I timed out a few times because of this! Timed out a pair of AA which really tilted me a bit.
Don't worry about the results. You can run bad for 3-4 or even more sessions, but all you need is one really good session to put you in profits. Which is exactly what happened.
I'll post a graph of my success so far:
268 tourneys
ROI: 13.5%
$54 profit+ $10 bonus released
And a little funneh for you guys:

Good luck at the tables,
Norbert

Something really important about these SNGS is that you need to play really really tigh! LIKE SUPER TIGHT! TIGHTER THAN A HORSES ASS!
My stats are 15 vpip 12.6 pfr 4.4 3bet
I limp quite a few hands at the first blind level like suited connectors and or high card connectors if i have really good odds. At the first blind level you have a ton of players open limping a lot.
I really enjoy playing these.
Hopefully will reach Platinum on stars soon! Currently Goldstar!
Instead of a funny picture I wanna share this song that I listen to while playing poker. It's really badass!
TLDR; I ran good and I made a 2% royal flush today!
Good luck at the tables,
Norbert
gratz on the royal ioanas.
and keep up the nice volume and soon u'll be like ignas
Thanks man! Yes hopefully I will make a lot of money and buy a baller car ♦
How are you? Haven't seen you on skype lately, are you still playing and taking shots?
Good luck at the tables!
playin playin ofc ♦
and yes, baller cars ftw, i want bmw 330i coupe 2007year myself, only like 30-40k$ and it pwns so fucking hard ♦
Hey guys! So I've played a few of these sngs, and would like to make a little evaluation. I'm posting my graph and my stats maybe someone who's played these can tell me a few pointers.
I think i busto too many 5th and maybe i'm doing some mistakes. Not sure if should be tighter or looser on the bubble. Well its quite situational but still, maybe someone can point out a few mistakes in my game.
Good luck,
Norbert
Well for the past few days I've been running pretty bad. I think for the past 4 days I'm down like 40bi which isn't a lot at all, just a bit sick.
I do believe that I've been making a few mistakes which didn't really help, and I may not have focused enough.
Gonna do a quick check on my goals for this month:
Play ABC poker at these micro lvls, no fancy stuff (YES, Except for a few spots i made mistakes and outleveled myself)
Seeing that it's 18th of August already i will try to play like minimum 500 sngs till the end of month. I have just started using Table Ninja and hopefully i will start mass tabling soon! (DONE and very successfully, playing 20 tables no problem and i have played 750+ sngs)
Learn to mass table! (DONE)
Watch at least 3-4 vids till the end of the month!(I only watched 2 vids but its still good)
Work even more on mindset! ( I did and I am a bit better, still room for improvement)
And this is the graph + stats
Pretty solid IMO, 8% roi is ok i guess, could be better but a rather small sample size so I'll take it!
And as always here is a little funneh for you guys! Hope you like it:
Well i wish everybody a good week and good luck at the tables!
Norbert
PS: LOL i forgot! I also reached Platinum on stars! FUCK YEEAAAAAA!
Hello!
Tomorrow I will start my sick grind at the $3.5 18 man sngs on pokerstars.
So far I've been doing pretty decent at the 1.5 limit so hopefully soon enough I will be playing these 3.5s pretty decent and start putting in good volume. I'll start 10 tabling these because of BRM.
So far here i am:
Doing fairly decent I believe.
I'm also sweating with a friend of mine who is also playing these 18 mans so it's really fun that we get to sweat and learn from each others mistakes.
At this limit i wish to:
Play 2k games(Obv not until the end of the month, but till the end of September)
Work even more on mindset (reading Fooled by randomness by T. Nassim)
Post hands in the evaluation forum (at least 2 per day)
Watch some videos (hopefully 3-4 , but it's a bit hard finding 18 man vids)
Play and study as much as I can (hopefully study at least 1 hour per day)
I was pretty anxious to start these 3.5 sngs and I should have started a few days ago, but had stuff to do IRL which really sucks. I just want to be able to play as much as I can and it seems that the planets don't really align so I can be able to do what I want.
Here is a little funny pick for all you grinders:
Wish me luck at the tables,
Norbert
