its more of an experience thing. after thousands of sngs you start to figure it out, and can almost predict exactly when they will call yer pushes and when they will push. its creepy. holla

what i think, is that the growth of poker will die down within the next 5 years.. but there will still be occasional newcomers, and people that are always willing to gamble off 50 bucks or 20 bucks or whatever on sngs. therefore, ill always at LEAST have a summer job 230582093892 tabling 22s or something. will poker be sa good in 5 years as it is now? i doubt it. will it still be quite profitable? absolutely. holla

There are other countries in the world. Gambling is more popular in some of them than the US. Some of them have a lot of growth coming as far as getting online.

It may still be profitible after 10/04/2005.

I do this, but I don't know much about assigning ranges and comparing with pot odds and probability in some super official mathematical way.

OOC, how many SNGs do you usually play a day? And how many tables? Thanks.

But are they as rich and dumb as americans [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] It's ok, I'm just telling it like it is. FWIW aussies are worse than everyone, even the americans (well when it comes to gambling [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]).

i htink you need to sit down and make a decision about if you're going to play sng or ring games.

everyone knew that you used to play a lot, but 50-60 hours??? Thats impressive, I bet that I would go crazy after a couple of weeks of 40 hours.
