\"Proper\" number of players left at various SNG levels

Is there any way to calculate how many players should be left (on average) at the various levels of a party SNG, if everyone was playing my properly? The idea being that on level 1 you shouldn't...

Re: Sit and Gos for a living, What stakes do you recomend?

This is a joke, right? If this is at the higher levels, why on earth wouldn't you move down? If this is at the lower levels, why on earth would you be playing in the first place. Please tell me...

Re: for those of you who dont know me

My mistake. You are of course correct.

Re: I don\'t usually post hand histories - but...

You were doomed when the king came on the turn. Bad luck, but no way to get away from it. You were losing to two possible hands (KT and TT); you were beating a huge number of other hands (all...

Re: Party Poker $50 vs $100 NL 1-Table

I did not think the $50s were a joke, over a reasonable sample size. The $100s are harder. There are at least a couple posts on this in the past, to which I do not have links, but you should be...

Re: How\'s my play in this hand?

Standard raise with limpers, or without limpers? The two situations are very different.

Re: Recent 109 hand that had me stumped.

I was playing a $109, caught two pair on the flop (two tone), bet out from last position but could not shake the draws, and a third flush card hit on the turn. Folded around to me, I bet out to...

Re: Another Party Poker Bad Beat!!

Having made the choice to extract more money from the hand -- a very reasonable choice -- you played it fine. The other guy got lucky. It happens. If you had bet more early, he probably would have...

Your phrasing

Ask yourself if you would use the word in that way in front of your mom/sister/girlfriend/boss. If not, why not?

And, btw, I think your description of "killing" the table and "running over the...

Re: Losing Concentration

Excellent question. I don't know the answer. One question to ask, perhaps, is why are you playing -- at that moment in time? I wonder whether answers like boredom, trying to get even, feeling...

Re: How many people here make $50+/hr playing SnGs?

Partly my mistake. I have always used a default of 1 hour per four-game set in estimated hourly earn, etc.

I recognize you were referring only to the theoretical ROI. It remains true, however,...

Re: How many people here make $50+/hr playing SnGs?

Your numbers appear to be seriously flawed underestimates of what ROI you need at these levels -- either that, or you incorrectly state that these are ROI levels needed at 4 tables (as opposed to 6...

Re: I\'m Pretty Mad At Myself

I might disagree with this. I went (tandem) skydiving once. I found that the time for fear was when you had any chance of backing out. As a passenger, you could theoretically make a huge scene and...

The Public Demands a Detailed Account of the Saga of Neverwin

Who is this Neverwin? What, exactly, happened? Please enlighten us! To be referred to by just one name -- like Cher, Madonna, and Jesus -- clearly indicates that this is a story for the ages.

How different is this from the \"System\"?

Aleo --

How is your idea different (in broad outline) fromm the "System" described by Sklansky in HPFAP? I realize that you're limiting it to the first few rounds, but in reality strategy in the...

Reasons I (or You) Enjoy SNGs

Curious as to why other people on this forum enjoy -- or, at least, play -- SNGs (as opposed to other forms of poker, primarily).

Personally, I like two things. (1) Repeated, short term...

Re: Response to jcm4ccc and Eastbay

If you were taking enough vicodin, you would no longer be concerned about such immaterial things as majors. Plus you would love everyone. Ask the oral surgeon to up your dosage.

Formatting seems messed up -- the total pots don't add up. What to learn from this? Well, you did the right thing given the actual holdings -- 75% of the time, or so, you triple up here. So, the...
