Just lost 21 BI with SSS on NL 10. i don't feel I tilted, I actually think I played better at the end of the session, still I had the most amazing number of suckouts ever.

I also never could win a flip I lost all AK against small pair hands, I lost all the time I had a PP and opponent had overcards. I lost with flushes against Full houses, with 2 pair against trips.

Well... It seems like poker hates you too. ♦ jk.
Poker is a game of high variation, SSS especially.. You'll get used to it.

Take a break and come back when you have forgotten about those losses

I can see some leaks in your play.

Hand #4. You flopped top set on an extremely draw heavy board, c-bet for protection/value from draws instead of letting your opponent get there cheaply.

Hand #3. QJ would be strong enough to issolate his limping range. Stick it in on the turn as well.

I don't really get the hand where you went broke with pocket tens?
I guess you could always try some table selection as well. Opponents this loose can really cause headaches sometimes.

Tnx for the support guys, just came home from a party and i already forgot about it, I know my game is far from perfect, especially the trips against flush was awful, but I just needed to vent a little.

See you all on Monday when I'll hopefully become a gold member for the first time

In the TT hand the MP raiser had 92vpip and 75pfr which even with 12 hands means his real pfr is higher than 10, and at 10pfr reraisng MP raise with TT is profitable.

Well the last couple of hands, your stack dips well below min stack (20bb) for SSS, so you just give the opponents better odds to call your shove. Other than that, unlucky.

:f_confused: Minimum stack for SSS is 15BB. ♠_confused:

It's more like 10, and actually the smaller your stack is, the more profitable spots you get, as long as you have valid(enough hands) stats on your opponents. That's why I personally rebuy only if my stack goes bellow 5BB, and at 5 I rebuy only for 5 more, to make it 10BB.

_Anonymous_

Yes I rebuy when I fall below 15 BB (altough in one had i had 14,5, probably didn't manage to rebuy in time). I think that actually SSS is even more profitable with a stack closer to 15 than to 20 BB. Is that right?

What site lets you rebuy to less than 20BB???
I have not found one

I don't see how having a 5bb stack is profitable since you're committed to almost any pot and will not win much back? Also, the min buy-in is usually 20bb (stars) and rebuying back to the initial 20bb is what I meant. Since your stack is often below it, you give others better than usual odds to call your shove, since they wouldn't have to invest much more after your 3bet.... and so higher chance of suckouts.

Well at FullTilt if you are felted you have to rebuy for 20 minimum, but as long as you have some chips left, you can rebuy for as little as you want.
With 5-10BB stack I just shove preflop, so FE of open raising is actually maximizied.
I may be wrong here, and this could turn out to be a big leak in my strategy, but I am pretty sure shoving AQs (for an example) UTG with <10BB is profitable.
Actually according to the S-C article I believe with <10BBs UTG(at a 9person table) A9s+ ATo+ 77+ is profitable.

hey dude,

im sorry to tell you but you're completely wrong from every god damn point of view mathematically, conceptually.

you missapply and change sss strategy , and then go and cry like a baby in another thread about how doomed you are by full tilt poker

sss strategy is a good strategy as it is, and ppl who made it for us, and give it to us in exchange for the rake we provide to them ARE FAR BETTER than you can think of, and most important, BETTER THAN YOU.

not only this but you post in their forum some nasty words, didnt recognize you're under tilt and basically you have no future in this game.

i dont think u are or will be of any significant help to this community.

sorry.... peace. ♠_evil:

The risk is what gives value to an investment. If it were no risk anyone would do it, diluting at such a scale, that profitability will rapidly drop to zero, as more and more late investors come, and at NO profitability there is no investment, QED
