Re: How much can you win?

I too started with a winning blackjack record (card counter, Hi-Opt I system). That game has obviously dried up. I switched to poker about 2.5 years ago. Lost initial bankroll of $200. Got the...

Re: A2s on the bubble and re-raised . . .

First of all, this is not "the bubble". The bubble is 4-handed, when everyone is trying to make the money.
Second, you have 3200+ in the pot, and about 1400 to call.
If he will make this play with...

My guess is that a 20% ROI would still be very attainable.
Difference is that your payroll will not need to be twice that of the $215 game.

Re: Stealing on the bubble w/big chip lead

I think the answer to this question is a no-brainer.
The much more interesting question is: if you're one of the short stacks and the big stack is bullying like this, what hands are you willing to...

Re: Somewhat to new to regular play at 10+1 SG

Two things:
1. An ROI > ~20 is great for a beginner at this level (10+1).
2. Your ROI will fluctuate greatly for the first 500+ games. So don't overanalyze your limited data. Just keep collecting...

Re: 100+9 SnG BR

For what it's worth, I've played about 1100 109's, all multitabling. My worst downswing has been in the 1800-2000 range. I would feel pretty comfortable with a 4000 bankroll,

BUT...

Re: Thoughts on this hand?

Easy lay down for me. I think it's at least 50/50 that you lose here to button who could easily have a set or a better overpair. An overpair is not a great hand to a flop seen by so many players and...

Re: What\'s a reasonable ratio for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finishes?

Re: What\'s a reasonable ratio for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finishes?

I logged about 250 games at 20+2 before moving up. My ratio this level: 12.0% 1st, 14.7% 2nd, 16.2% 3rd.

For 50/100/200 games, (around 1100 total, mostly at 100+9):
12.4, 13.4, 13.6 for 1sts,...

Re: Normal Losing Streaks

OK here are some hard numbers.
I've done about 1000 100+9 Party STTs, with reasonable success (ITM 39.5 ROI 19.7)
Twice in that time I had downswings of almost $2000.
Does that help?

Re: Bad beat or bad play?

I think this is mostly bad luck but I would favor checking (and then calling) on the river. You may induce a bluff if you are against a diamond draw that will fold to your bet otherwise. But if...
