This one was obvious I think but letting myself get to this short a stack is silly. I got there by the hand that follows,

trying to find the hand I had in mind with the raise/call

djgolfcan

First shove is standard and you got coolered. Hand two, I wouldn't shove, knowing that you will get called by the shorter stack pretty wide.

djgolfcan

I can't believe how bad my luck is.... and this is just one example, under pairs beating my overs, dominated hands catching up. I should be up huge tonight.

Hey Trigs,

Don't have my numbers in front of me but I'm down about the same amount after 66 games. Looks like its going to come down to the wire. I'll post my stats tonight.

trigs

heh, well it'd be nice if it was kind of close. looks like if either of us can hit a good run they will take the win.

Milo

djgolfcan;289998 wrote50 buyins should be plenty at the $3.50 level. Even in my horrid streak of 60 games, I'm still breaking even.

Stop thinking about your new vehicle, and focus on MY new vehicle, dammit . . . :D

oh yeah. no that's cool. winner take all then i guess.

how many games in richard?

I didn't even realise we're playing for money :o About 30 games in, but what did I miss?

Richard~;290242 wroteI didn't even realise we're playing for money :o About 30 games in, but what did I miss?

lol, yeah that's why i thought you weren't in. bet is nothing big. loser pays for micro mtt buy-in for winner ($5 or less). winner is person with highest ROI after the 100 games.

as long as dj is cool with it i don't mind you joining the bet. it'll still cost me the same to lose ;) or you can just play along and compare results anyway.

EDIT: i'm really just doing this prop bet to try and motivate me to play more sngs. well, and so i can brag when i beat dj :D

slight downswing tonight. 6 in a row without even getting to the bubble didn't win a single race whether I was the pair or the overs.

I hate this side of variance. sigh.

3 more fired up then nap time

Holy phuc that was the ugly ass side of variance. I need to play some big tourneys man cause I must be due an up swing (I don't really believe I have built up luck)

Bubbled 1 of 12 games. Shoved and was called by an inferior pair 3 times where they not only hit the set, but hit quads! I can only LOL. tonight was a night where I could predict the turn or river about 70 percent of the time. wow I've got some serious hand reviewing to do tomorrow to see if it was just variance or if I truly did suck balls tonight.

could go either way

I am now a firm believer in the doom switch (tin foil hat included with club membership fee)

lol yeah the variance in these turbos can be a major bitch. my worst stretch in this competition so far was 7 or 8 games (although i bubbled 3 or 4 of those).

meh, that's not variance. A friend of mine (good MTSNG player) just completed a run of 300 (180/45) and is down over 100BI.

putting in a pretty decent session tomorrow. so far I'm at 20 games with $67 in payouts so I'm down 1.5 BI's so far

trigs

rich, i forgot to mention that it is also part of the bet that you finish your games by the end of the year. i have the last week off so i'll be able to put in some decent sessions then.
