what's holding you back from playing the $60 turbo's?

ditto.

I played some 60s and was up for a while. Then I lost a couple hundred $$ more than I had won and decided I wasnt comfortable at that level yet.

The 60s are a little tighter and generally it takes longer to get past the bubble.

I'll try them again if/when I get a much bigger bankroll. Right now, losing a couple hundred bucks hurts too much, so I probably dont play as well as I can at that limit because of thinking about the money.

While all the 27 players are reading this (sorry to hijack)im currently playing the $15turbos with a small sample size, but decent roi - how do the $27s compare to the 15s?

isnt 30*60 ~2000 enough??? with 15% roi on $27, isnt just 500 $27 SnGs????

or, like me, with bankroll of some hundreds buyin, I still playing $20+2???

[pooh74]

I frankly dont know if I can beat them confidently yet. In Jan. i had 2000ish in my account in decided to take a crack...lost 5 in a row, and cas I'm a tight pussy, moved back down and lost horribly for awhile down to 1200ish. So I decdied to just play 27s after that and have been cashing out ever since and play on my base.


I honestly want to beat the 27s for at least 15% for another 1000, have the roll (I want 3k to start), and not be in a place where Im freaking out over money all the time.

thats my excuse....whats yours?

BTW, the short story is "I suck"

[gisb0rne]

I have the bankroll but I'm focusing on the $25's at the moment to stabilize my income. I have a tendency to find excuses to not play so I'm on a strict 4 day a week, 4 hours a day program until I've successfully held to that for a couple months. I'm also concerned that there aren't enough $55's to handle my 8-tabling.

[bennies]

I play the 60's and I see it as my duty (to myself) to give you reasons to stay at the 27s.


Top 3 reasons to avoid the 60's

1) I play here /images/graemlins/smirk.gif
2) Percentagewise, the rake is worse.
3) Table selection is impossible because so few tournies start up, on average I'll be playing with one other multitabler.

Good luck /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

[bawcerelli]

Yeah, the rake looks like it might make a bit of a difference. Anyhow, soon as I build up a big enough BR, I'll be multitabling right along with you Ben. Sorry man. /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Nothing really, i'm going to start soon.

[bawcerelli]

well after 593 $27's my distribution is:

1st|2nd|3rd
87 73 82

for a 14.95 ROI I'm not exactly thrilled with this ROI. think I'll stick down here for a while till i'm clearing 20%.

[Melchiades]

Maybe you should be thrilled.

[housenuts]

i've been taking stabs at the $60s. i got lucky at the start and had an exceptional run. like 80% ROI after the first 10. so that was a nice confidence boost. after then coming back to reality and losing i decided it was best to stay at the 27s/16s until i was adequately rolled.

pooh and gisborne, I've played enough with both of you and played enough at both levels that there's no doubt in my mind you can both beat the $60's. Of course, a $2Kish bankroll is necessary.

And a brag post (just because I have nowhere better to put it):

I just played a set with six $27's and six $60's:
$27's: 1-2-0-3
$60's: 3-3-0-0

Definitely one of my three or four best sets ever. Those are always nice. About two days' worth of profits in an hour.

nice set dude...ok, while we're at it...I just hit a homer with the bases jam packed...watcha call it?

Ok...no more cashouts...1600 and climbing to the 60s...( I will not play them with less than 2500, but I am a tight bastard so don't go by me).

thx for the encouragement terp...ggs

as i told pooh when we were out to drinks, i'm fairly confident he could beat the 109s. this was evidenced by me being totally flabbergasted by him saying he in fact plays the 27s.
