Nice to see you haven't given up! Best of luck, if you have any questions, feel free to ask. Everyone's pretty helpful here.

Hello DK,

Congratulations on starting a blog as it can be an excellent motivational tool for you.

As for the matter of you needing help, here goes:

1) If you unfortunately lose your remaining $10 then the bonus will only expire when the qualifying date for that particular bonus has been reached.

2) I'll have to let an SNG player ask this as i play cash. Sorry.

3) I applaud your willingness to learn and i would suggest at this point that maybe you do more learning than actually playing until you can really say that you understand the theory. This may just help you to grow the $10 you have remaining, rather than losing them by playing too much and not absorbing enough knowledge.

I hope this goes someway to helping you and if you have any further questions then please feel free to ask away.

Kind Regards,
-Steve

Hey gunstar, they say knowing is half the battle! keep studying! i hope things will turn around for you. i started out with SNG's as well and they are really exciting but also really swingy. concentrate on the game and on your opponents most of all-- like its your last dollar (which it almost is). playing with $11 is really difficult, so don't be too disappointed if you lose it all. armed with knowledge and a little bit of luck, it is possible to build up that BR though.

Hello again,

Just finished my thorough study of the basic part for SnG/Tournaments... Pretty easy I would say. Still I need to watch some videos then I'll head right to the bronze articles. The ICMTrainer was done by me in 10 minutes, I had to retry only one lecture. Once again I have some unanswered questions

1) How to play in a situation when your bluff is called on the flop. After that you check, but what to do if your opponent bets? Is folding the right decision? Even if the turn was a blank smth like 5 on a 2 t q rainbow flop?

2) Does the strategy outline works on turbo SnG? The problem is that there are only Turbo SnGs at PartyPoker, and I am the lucky player of that room.

Thanks
Regards
DK

Not much action here... Still, I played 2 SnGs, just to test my knowledge of the basics.
The first one... Well I have nothing to say... DON'T THINK YOU ARE SMARTER THAN THE POKERSTRATEGY.COM TEAM... I made a terrible mistake in the very beginning, playing pocket jacks with an ace on the flop... Bye bye half of my stack! Then it became a question of time.

The second one was a bit better. Although I did another mistake, I shoved A5suited with two shoves before me... Don't know why i did that, but I won with a pair of fives That made one of the shovers very angry and he started calling me a donk. I know this isn't very good, but it was pure fun saying "bye bye mr pro", when he sucked out on 4th place. Then I continued playing poker and got 1st place. -2$ for buy-ins and +4$ for the win. Bankroll 13$...

Still here! Not going to play any SnGs today, better watch more videos and read up them bronze and silver articles.
Regards, DK

So quiet here!

Anyway I played only 4 SnGs (1$ buyin) and got 2 1st places. My bankroll is now 15$ from the starting 11$. Thanks to pokerstrategy i think i posses a very good tactic. I hope the grow continues

P.S. won the final pot with 2 :spade:3
