Clarify

Someone recently posted "Wow, this guy is running good or he plays over 100 SnG's a day"

Well just to clarify, I play around 20 Multi-Table tournies a day. Yes they are the 45 Man Turbo's. Some of you refer to them as Donkaments..lol

Anyways, here is my chart from SharkScope...i'm improving alot!

Back to back Cashes....Also, I was wondering if there was anyway to qualify for Team MiltonRocks? I am from Rockwood, and Guelph does not have a team. I would definatly want to join this year.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

  • Not to bring you down; but you need a much larger set of data to look at. Other than your recent streak (last 20 games) you were playing around $0 profit poker up and down up and down. See how the next 100 go, if you can keep it increasing and not just hold even, than you are definitely improving, and becoming a winning player!

    Good luck, and keep it up (unless I'm in the tournament with you ;) )
  • So you are -$60 over the first 305ish tournies and +$465 over the last 20ish?

    Nice run. Rock the variance.
  • This guy is like a live study on my 'false edges' thesis.

    Whats Team MiltonRocks? :)

    POTD. Shit...message too short...stupid forum. :)
  • Guess your right, need more data to see if i'm really improving.
    I thought the MiltonRocks was the team name for the ryder cup. I would really like to qualify and play for your team.
  • Maybe you could run a turbo qualifier Jeff? :)

    Don't we all? And just to clarify, I don't think the forum is collectively trying to rain down on your variance upswing (OK, maybe a little).

    The point is, it can be very easy to fall into bad habits and overestimate how great our play is when things are running well. Similarly it can be easy to wonder if we know anything about this game, or wonder how we got "outplayed" when running bad (and if you haven't run bad yet, you will). In short we need to take both extremes with a grain of salt, because this game doesn't necessarily (immediately) correlate good play with winning money (or vice versa). Ie. you should still be striving to learn from your mistakes (and looking for the mistakes in the first place) when running well, as well as not needing a complete overhaul in your game when you start running bad.

    I'm happy for you for winning ....

    And ...

    The following sounds like preaching but I think the other forum members will think this is the biggest favor I can do for you. I hope this doesn't come off as too harsh or condescending.


    Stop what you're doing.
    Stop what you're thinking.


    You really Really need to fix your whole perception or paradigm of gambling:

    Easiest way.


    Buy Gambling Theory and other Topics by Mason Malmoth.

    Read it.

    Understand it.

    Live it.

    Or you will never understand how to think like a winning gambler and be a have to a gambling career as a loser.

    Seriously...

    The best thing you can do is change your whole way you think about gambling.
