[Closed] My Sit&Go blog.

So are you now a SnG grinder? I used to play SSS too, but now, I almost strictly play 9-man SnGs.

But nice blog Dante, and good luck! Remember to keep your head up when the cards just refuse fall your way.

u can join the waiting list and play 15+ tables (I know from personal experience.)

There seriously are only 3 1$ SNGs running at Party? Only a couple of months babck there used to be countless of these... I guess times are changing...
EDIT: I went ahead and checked and the're like 20 tables right now..

It may depend on the time, their are over 20 tables. But how many of them are open for registration? 3 or 4?

I will try post a update today since my BR hit $230

Small update, some interesting hands from my last $1 session.

This call was more based on how the player was going all in on me every time, maybe he was using ICM.

CO (t4090)
Button (t2160)
SB (t2170)
Hero (t1990)
UTG (t4710)
MP (t4880)

Preflop: Hero is BB with K[:club:], Q[:diamond:].
4 folds, SB calls [t2170] t200, Hero calls [t1590] t400.

Turn: (t600) Q[:club:] (2 players)

River: (t600) 3[:diamond:] (2 players)

Final Pot: t600

This play was wrong on my part, but I took the gamble. It was more like a semi-bluff on the flop hoping he would fold, it was stupid because
he could of limped any pocket pair, AJ would of been a raise I would say.

Final Pot: t2000

His limp from SB made me feel way ahead with ATs, on this limits I rarely encounter players trying to trap. Also take a look at the chip count,
it was a good position for me to take him out and get in the money. What would you do?

Final Pot: t1200

Today I scored 94% out of 1000 situations on the ICM trainer, I don’t like some of the pushes... Also, when the tournament starts and
the blinds are 20/40-30/60 how much should I raise? I cant find the perfect amount, 3-4 BB gets always more than two callers, on the $1 games I found
that going all in was the best way to get one caller, I don’t like multi way pots where you have no clue what the other players have.

My current BR is $230, so now I will be playing the $3 turbos, my goals:

Reach $300 in the next week!
150 more points for the $100 bonus (Increments of $10 for every 50 partypoints)
Test some $6 games, the rake is $1... You think that’s beatable?
Maybe platinum in the next month, I know I can, it will totally depend on my ROI (Better ROI will mean more play and less reading)

Now I will go grind about 30-50 turbos, will post results later. Is their any program (free :P) for Sit&Goes? That can make graphs and give me stats, etc.

Thanks for reading!

WOW

Well I played 41 $3 turbos.

Losses: 20
Third: 7
Second: 4
First: 10

I hace noticed my heads-up game really good ♦
Once I am in the money I really play better, my BR was $230, now its $289.70.

I had some suckouts, but not many, my hands where holding.

Hey there,

the first and last hands look standard. I would call even K9o maybe K8o in the first hand and ATs is definitelly a call even if he pushes so you really have to push it if he just completes since you get more FE...
The second hand I would just let go. If you want to semibluff as you said make it 2/3 pot like you would if you really hit a strong hand. Once you get reraised you have to fold your second pair no kicker. That is just no hand to go all in with.

I raise 3BB+1BB per limper. Sure you sometimes get multiple callers so you cannot c-bet very often but you win more chips when you hit so it's no big deal IMO.

6$ Speeds are definitely beatable I made fortune playing these before I moved to Fulltilt. They should be actually easier to beat than the 3$s since the rake is lower complared to the buyin..

And nice stats so far! Keep it up!

But lets say I play 500 games, compare it to PokerStars rake ($5.50 I think), I lose $250 playing their... Would like to move to stars, but party is nice!

It was a busy day so I played little, 16 games.

Losses: 7
Third: 4
Second: 0
First: 5

$28.20 profit, new BR $317.90

I will start posting more hands in the next few days (After the weekend).

Since my goals are going fast, I will post some new ones:

Reach $500 in the next month
Get 50 partypoints per day, during 20 days to win $90 from the Gladiator promo
Test some $6 turbos
Update and make this blog more interesting!

hey dante,
I was wondering if you know how easy it is to withdraw money in argentina. I'm thinking of going to buenos aires for a few months, maybe longer, so just in case I wanted to know. (in south africa it's a little bit difficult)
