thats weird... after the Party updated their blind structure (4min levels instead of 5) my HEM reads 10mans turbos as... 40man MTT Super Turbos and 6$ 6max shows as a 24man Super Turbo MTT (+ rake is counted as 0.60$ instead of 0.50$, 1st is 19$ istead of 19.80$). Thats really weird... ive just assumed that since they're no longer udating HEM1 its just gonna stay like that, for everybody. It would be really great if there's any chance to fix it since in 2013 im on a massive downer (65BI at the moment) ant tbh ive started to loose confidence, something with which the red line helps normally.

@akrammon - is there any chance you can get the HEM guy (netsrak i believe) to have look at this thread so i don't need to open a new one in his forum? If thats any kind of a problem, don't worry, ill create a separate thread tomorrow :) cheers!

is time for an update

i am done with staking.it was the best thing i did.i met a some people that helped me to improve my game and play limits that i could not play without staking.made some money so i can start on my own now.

another thing is that i am don with 10 man too.i started to play 6 max some time ago but now i will concentrate only on 6 max.this is the graph so far:

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

played 6$ and 3 11$ games.now i will mix 6$ and 11$ 6 max.i didn't set any goals because the main thing now is learning.i will play too but less tables and try to learn postflop game as much as i can.

so that's it for now let's hope it will go well :)

i forget about this blog a lot but looks like sometimes i feel like updating.

moved to poker stars and now my main goal is to improve.i have always improved my game but now i will take it a lot more serious.table select ,search regs and try to exploit them.

i am playing 7$/15$ now and i want to see how far i can go.right now i am just learning by myself but in the future i am going for some coaching.

my laptop broke down this morning and i lost everything i had on 'C' partition and that is the partition where i have all programs saved including HEM and PS notes.i marked so many regs on pokerstars and now i lost them.it sucks.

i like a lot playing at poker stars.i don't think i will move form here ever :)

would you say the reg infestation is so big that it would be too optimistic to create volume on 12+ tables in the 3/7/15/30/60 9 man sngs?

Here im thinking if its necessary to note the regs, otherwise than play them nashly ?

i've been crushing 11$ sngs on party, then got away as fast as i could when the doom days started there, just to find out i may not even be able to beat 3,5 at stars yet. Was going for gold this month, but now i think it would be better to downgrade tables, and upgrade quality, even though my new poker comp is designed to be able to play 24 tables :(

Just curouiuiuous, how did u get out of the 3,5 hole? i mean, my hourly at party was neat, but now 2 limits down not only am i loosing a little, but its still only fcking 3,5$. TELL ME

And gl with ur platinum status when u get there _love:

depends on how many regs do you want at the table.with 2-3 regs at the table maybe even 4 i can 6 table 7$ and 15$ turbo and knockout.in these 2-3 regs might be some good regs some BE even and loosing regs.

you play nash with them but nash is not a winning strategy,it's an equilibrium.if all players were regs and play perfect nash they all would be losing because of the rake.

i think stars games are harder than party but if you beat the 11$ on party you should beat the 7$ on stars.what sample do you have on 3.5$?maybe is just variance.

as for the number of tables i think is best to play less tables and try to improve your game.

GL
