Default Re: Sit-N\'-Go Buy-In Status; Where do you play.

1. Buy-in. 10+1 for now
2. Number of Hours per week: highly dependent on research progress
3. Number of tables: two
4. Personal Poker Goals: four tables, build sufficient bankroll for 20's, then 30's.
5. Why you enjoy SNG's(if you do [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]): short attention span
6. What site(s) do you play on.: Party. Others as I feel like clearing bonuses.

Default Re: Sit-N\'-Go Buy-In Status; Where do you play.

1. Usually 10+1, sometimes 5+.50 or 20+2. Occassionally 30+3, rarely more.

2. 15 - 20 hours per week overall, mixed between SNG's (25%-50%), NL ring games (usually 50%) and multi table tourneys (the rest of the time). I like variety.

3. Usually 2 tables, 4 at the most.

4. Win the WSOP (hey we all have dreams).
Short of that, build my bankroll to the point where poker can be a profitable part time job rather than just a hobby. I'd like to continue to improve and comfortably move up to higher money levels.

5. I like SNG's because I play my best in tournaments, and they don't take as long as a multi table tourney.

6. I currently play mostly at Full Tilt, which I like a lot. They have very good software, which allows you to easily look at the previous 50 hands played at a table while you are still playing. (I'm working on earning my deposit bonus, it takes a long time there). I also have played at these sites:
Poker Room - which I did well at, but I have had many connection problems there recently,
Ultimate Bet - which I do well at and like a lot,
Party - which I sucked at (I might try playing there again someday),
Poker Stars - which is ok,
Pacific - which is very fishy, but has lousy software and
Royal Vegas - which has the worst customer service I have seen.

1. Buy-in.
Mostly 30s, some 50s

At least 20, usually closer to 40.
3. Number of tables
Hopefully 8 in the near future, 4 at the moment.
4. Personal Poker Goals
Keep myself in beer money.
5. Why you enjoy SNG's(if you do [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img])
I like the early stages-> bubble transition for some reason.
6. What site(s) do you play on.
Party, Empire, Stars

Default Re: Sit-N\'-Go Buy-In Status; Where do you play.

1. 11s or 22s depending on how many bills i have that week. (does anyone else struggle with this when building a br?)

2.40+

3. 4, unless i am in a terrible downswing in which i usually drop to 2

4. to become a winning player at the 215s by the end of the year. (longterm) to establish and maintain a working br of $2000. (short term).

5. i like sngs because they are exciting, and for the most part, easier to beat then limit holdem. furthermore, being an athlete my entire life, i enjoy the competition that tournament poker provides.

6. currently at pokernow, will transfer over to eurobet once i am done with my current stretch of 500 sngs, as it is difficult to import tourny summaries into pt from eb and pn no longer supports rakebacks.
