[Closed] SSS on Rush Poker

Congratz, but actually SSS isn't possible on rush poker as the minimum buy in is 40 bbs.
Still, u can use the same hand range as if u played SSS and also the betsizes

That's basically what I meant, using the hand ranges and the whole principle of showing in certain positions.

Tried it myself. Only played a sample of 15-20k aprox hands and almost broke even(won a small amount, like 0.5/100bb i guess). However, I got a nice rakeback for those hands With the rakeback I earned maybe 60-70 bux.

I was running VERY bad tho!

Playing my own strategy on Rush poker and creaming through 1.2k - 1.5k hands an hour with a 2.40bb/100.... I am converted forever.. Or until my bankroll exceeds the limits of rush poker.

Hi PushMeUp btw

but what limit?

i tried 10-25c with the SSS ranges but also set mined in limped pots as it was 40bb deep, ran like balls over 10k hands and got slaughtered. so i went back to my old faithful 3.50 super turbos, ran like balls again and got slaughtered again. now i've had to drop to 1.50 super turbs and STILL running like balls and still getting slaughtered.

just venting sorry

in theory are the SSS ranges profitable 40 blinds deep at the 10-25c level?

Haha. I played a few Sit & Go's yesterday and had a fairly good run. I cashed in 4/5 games. ($2 + $0.20). I chose to use my winnings, as I seem to be able to cash in almost every $2 + $0.20 9 seater I play now, and play some low stakes rush poker $0.10/$0.25. I managed to make $10 in around 400 hands using the hand ranges from SSS. Seemed fairly easy although I made some real tough laydowns.

It's ok. I've had it bad like this before. Losing AA to AK, 92, etc. It happens and too be honest you can't do much about it. When I turn on my laptop I have a routine:

* Turn on laptop.
* Log on to my Facebook, Youtube, MSN and Skype.
* Look through my Facebook notifications.
* Look at my YouTube subscription videos.
* Sign in on FullTilt
* Join a $2 + $0.20, 9 max, SNG.
* I play 6 tables.
* If I lose more money than I have spent then i'll come off and wait either until later on in the day or tomorrow.
* If I win more money than I lose then i'll carry on playing until I feel that I want to stop playing or if I start going on a losing streak.

I don't really like playing when i'm running bad. I don't steam and start making bad decisions, even though i've done so in the past, but I just feel as if i'll be coming out badly at the end of it all and then I start playing unconfidently.

It will probably help you if you check out some of the downswing reports. they sure helped me when I was being sucked out on all month.

I have been playing rush at 40bb at NL10 and now NL25.

in total I have clocked about 200K hands.

It is extremely swingy you can loose 20BI in a downswing easy so 30BI is a bit low brm I think. I have not played with less than 50BI BRM. It is possible and you can play pocket pairs as well in some case as open raise.

I´ve been playing nothing else but
Rush Poker NL50...
SSS hand range with few exceptions.
2 tabling
Played around 75 k hands.
Profited around $ 1,3 k (not considering the fat rake backs)

Blind stealing rules, here
3-bet rules, here too

Loving it

any experience of downswing so far? I have. I have build up a nice bankroll with rush but I have had time when I went down dramatically before going back up... I want to make sure to warn OP of the dangers

Yes I have.
2 Tabling on NL50 can easily lead you to a $100-dollar-loss in less than an hour. It happened to me twice.
The same way monsters show up faster, the bad beats will hit you faster.
If you are not prepared to leave the tables as soon as it happens... forget rush ....

SSS in not possible on rush poker due to min buyin. Just try BSS, it works And yes rakeback rules on rush ♦

I´ve just developed my own strategy and I named it MSS ... Medium stack strategy ♦ ... Needless to say its a mix of SSS and BSS ... Doing fine...

Already did this it's in one of my old blogs

I am also using my own kind of SSS on Rush Poker.

Basically Basic SSS when I have 20-30BB.

And a different approach (opening up more, regular 3-bets instead of shoves) when I have 30-45BB.

I leave when I get more then 45BB.

Anyone else doing this? Comments?

ive also heard use of MSS. its nothing new. sorry to burst the bubble
