Re: $5/10 Check-Up and Interesting Hands
Kane,
I've read a lot about you and checked out your site and obviously you are a talented NL player and I was wondering what helped you the most in terms of getting better since day 1? I think I read somewhere that you said Super/System helped you the most in terms of book knowledge and obviously experience helped you more but are there any other methods you use or used to help you improve? Maybe Zen meditation or building a really, really big bankroll before moving up so you have a greater edge in specific games a la Mahatma? I believe one reason he dominates high-stakes NL games is because he has a bigger roll than most who play that game so he's able to push people around more because of that psychological factor whereas scared money or shot-takers might be playing a little worse. I know these questions are really general and you probably received tons of [censored] like this before, but I'm trying to improve and any info you can shed will be appreciated. |

Re: $5/10 Check-Up and Interesting Hands
I am playing $5/10 until I can rebuild my bankroll after changing Party accounts. They will only let me deposit $2,000/wk and my IMG-Pay checks take a week to clear.
I agree that having a big bankroll is a huge advantage to Mahatma. Alot of players will play until they are broke. So even if they go up big, they will eventually run it down to zero. Imagine if you are playing a tourament and one player has an unlimited number of chips. If these players dont stop playing over their bankrolls, they will end up losing it all back. The pyschological factor is there too, although it might hurt Mahatma at times because the money means less to him then to other people, making it easier for him to tilt(this may or may not be true). practice makes perfect. the more hands you play the better you will play. study your hands of course and try to learn from your mistakes and from other players. dont tilt. |

Re: $5/10 Check-Up and Interesting Hands
why not just do a wire transfer kane? only takes a week at most for any amount of money.

Re: $5/10 Check-Up and Interesting Hands
kane,
I just switched party accounts, and if you email cashier@pay-pro.com (not sure, but something like that) to reopen your neteller account and raise your limits, they will ask for you to call them, and after like 24 hours, they will close neteller on your old accounts (pp, empire) and open it up on your party account. And instantly can transfer a real bankroll. |
