[Closed] SNG from the small to high stakes (the next chapter)

stop playing HU poker

You will end up losing half your BR on a tilt! ♦

I always played hu and watched videos.I play one time per month at nl50.Indeed if you have tilt problems they are pain in the ass but so many fishes are swimming

In the last days i make a research to move my bankroll and i need some help.I read reviews from all the sites and i made these conclusions:

1)iPoker network has near no traffic to grind sit n gos so it will be pointless to move in this platform
2)Most people and sites tell that pokerstars is nearly ''unprofitable to play even for experienced players''.Is that true?Is competition in sit n gos so tough?Plus i think its a bit ridiculous to jump from 7$ in 15$ sit n gos :/
3)Party poker's traffic in sit n gos is not good
4)in ongame network sit n gos are fill up every 3 mins so maybe you can grind there but i really really dont know how much the table helps for grinding
5)I love tilt but recently i am a little bit suspicious :/

I would like to hear any opinions about pokersites or refer me any sites that have recent reviews on them.All the reviews are too old when i searched in google

I played 34 sit n gos in the last days with 3 first places 2 second places 12 third places.Should i worry for the amount i finish third?

If you know the enemy and know yourself you need not fear the results of a hundred battles. Sun Tzu

To put it simple, anything beside FT or Stars is awaste of time for SNGs players imo. The traffic is ridiculously low on any other website. Party poker could be fine I guess.

and don't worry about 34 SNGs sample is too small

These days sit n gos are reg infested due to sit n go madness promotion.Because i couldnt find any profitable tables to play i decided to play a small volume of heads up play in nl50.I said to myself that i ll stop if i loose the 50$(4 bi from my sit n gos not such a big deal)So i started playing without read any books,without watching any videos.I should inform you that i am a big fan of cash heads up and if i would turn in cash games(after i prove to myself that i can make a living from sit n gos)i would try to become a hu specialist.I dont like the 6 max and i really hate the slow action of full ring games.So i played 952 hands with a total profit of 172$.I have some questions if anyone could answer

1)Is it possible to make a living playing hu at nl50?
2)Should someone read articles or books and watch videos of cash heads up format or is a more free and creative form of poker which doesnt need these but only with experience can become someone better?
3)Supposing someone plays small pots preflop and play somewhat safe poker how much is the variance in hu?

I know that table selection is a must in heads up because you try to take advantage of the opponent

So i decided to move up in 12$ sit n gos in in friday.Unfortunately the tables were full of regs.And i mean FULL of regs.I saw tables with 6-7 winning regs.I dont even know why these people are playing together.They dont know that they have no profits this way?I was so dissapointed that i could find only 4-5 tables per day to play.So i put small volume with small profits.Can answer me this?Every time i will have to wait in 12$ for tables to not have more than 3 regs or the regs are way too many in this limit that you have to play against them?I seriously think to move in another platform because i cant play.Moreover in mornings are more regs than in the night?

As a result of these things i start playing nl50 hu.To be honest i love cash game hu and i hope some day i could be the best.Without reading any books,articles or watching any videos i decided to play and if i lost 50$ i would have stopped.I played a total of 1051 hands and won 279$ against various opponents which is awesome ♠_love:

I believe u r surestimating( overestimating) the regs at FT. Sure there night be a lot but theres always a way tp adjust to thrm and there should be enough fishes at the 6.5 and 11 $ level to make this protiable...maybe not so much at 24+.

Also you were doing so well u made 1000$ in a few months so not sure why u want to change a winning situation..hehe

Anyeays still I wish you the best of luck!

made 1000$ in less than two months playing but i dont know if i can keep winning when i see 4+ regs in the morning and 5+ in the afternoon

Why there is near nothing about hu sng content in the site?

which is your opinion about jackpot sit n gos?

I think they're still beatable despite the double rake cause jackpots attract a lot of fish. And you will definitely get a few top 2 finishing bonuses over 1,5-2k games and more rakeback. Maybe you'll get lucky to scoop the entire jackpot too but not very realistic. Anyway there's no space to move up there and different limits have different structure so only because of that I wouldn't play them.

Hi all

I need help for a serious matter.One guy is calling my girlfriend but his number is hidden so we dont know who is he.Is there any way(software or anything else) that we could see the number and understand who calling.I really really will appreciate it if you could find me a solution

A small sum up of the last ten days.I got my bankroll from 1000$ to 1333$thanks to nl50 hu but unfortunately i runned bad and lost almsost 600$ so i will be back to 6.50$ and start grinding.My goal is to relax till sunday and play 4x12 6.50$ turbo everyday.Turning in nl50 was so fucking bad choice and i hope i can be up as soon as possible.I hope my soul will not crush and i will have my ruined confidence back.I dont ever ever play again anything else besides 9 man turbo sng till i mastered them.I am so mind and soul crushed but i am way over motivated now.So generall goal is to play 4x12 set of 6.50$ sng.And once per two days i ll exploit in holdem manager regulars and i ll watch one video.So weekly sum 336 tourneys,3 videos,3 days of exploiting their ranges

what is your opinion about this?

Call your provider and say someone is stalking you. They have to give you the number unless they are a company or in some kind of " witness protection plan" wich is unlikely offcourse!

Kind regards,
♠_cool:

Currently i had to withdraw my bankroll because i had economical issues(for more info loook at the stake forum).So i looked for a staker for the 12$ sng.Instantly a guy answered named gape0000.I made a proposition to play 50tour with 50/50 from profits and 50/50 from rakeback.The guy told me to stake me for 100bi meaning 1200$.I was suprised that someone would give me such a huge amount of $ to play and he would trust me.Anyway i have to thank him because he didnt made too much questions to be boring.Ofc he asked id but i cant give someone my id online because you never know what happens.So now i have days to complete 100tours (achievable imo).i would play mostly 8 table because i need to have the best results.I ll update in the end of each day.I already played 17 tours.Thanks again gape
