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
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.

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.
I didn't even realise we're playing for money 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
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.
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.

Not in on the bet (sorry guys) but love the challenge to improve my SnGs. Hope this challenge will keep me focussed as I'm not as good at Pokerstars SnG's as I was on FTP (think its the faster blind structure and antes I have to adjust too.)

Hop on board, the more, the merrier. You may want to try to regular timed SNGs on Stars.
t minus few days to grindsville! Well to start anyway, really hopeful I get my vacation pay payout next week so I can join in on these games with ya's:).

Gotta try something. Overall I'm a losing player on stars, and was a winning player on FTP - go figure. The start of this challenge is my new "first deposit" and will be working my arse off to get back onto the winning side of the ROI :-)
