WOW, you must be really interested in your theory to try to make $300 playing $100 $5 SNG's 1 at a time when if you were 6-tabling the $109's for a similar amount of time with a 5% ROI, you would have $3500.

Not if he thinks proper use of this theory at other levels will elevate his ROI 1-2%.

[/ QUOTE ]

Whatever theory it is, I sincerely doubt its effectiveness or lack thereof would correlate in any way to higher level SNG's.

Hard to say when we don't know what it is.

I don't know what separates the 15% ROI players from the 5% ROI players at the 215s. But surely being able to interpret and perhaps even predict the behaviour of those you play against is one element of it.

living life... away from my computer...

It's weird. There is this whole cool world out there... with trees, and birds, and living things. Scary kind of, and crazy... but fun. The air smells funny though, all crisp and, what is the word... fresh? It's so bright also, cause there is this big brilliant round thing in the sky but I'm getting used to that too. I just don't look directly at it anymore.

Oh well. Good luck getting lucky, cause I think you will need it.

Meh.

This is hard. And boring. It's only 10, but I don't like the way it feels so far. At least I can't tell if I'm running badly or not (I've only watched 1 HH in the replayer.)

1st: 0
2nd: 1
3rd: 1
OOTM: 8

I was hoping for more hands like this:

***** Hand History for Game 2249418256 *****
NL Hold'em $5 Buy-in + $1 Entry Fee Trny:13330281 Level:7 Blinds(150/300) - Thursday, June 23, 01:11:25 EDT 2005
Table Table 35304 (Real Money)
Seat 2 is the button
Total number of players : 4
Seat 2: Irie ( $3313 )
Seat 4: MizzHolla ( $2065 )
Seat 5: Atchydog ( $1992 )
Seat 6: NY_Henri ( $630 )
Trny:13330281 Level:7
Blinds(150/300)
** Dealing down cards **
Dealt to Irie [ 7h 8d ]
NY_Henri folds.
Irie is all-In [3313]
MizzHolla folds.
Atchydog is all-In [1692]
** Dealing Flop ** [ 6c, Tc, 3c ]
** Dealing Turn ** [ 5d ]
** Dealing River ** [ 4d ]
Atchydog shows [ Jd, Ad ] high card ace.
Irie shows [ 7h, 8d ] a straight, four to eight.
Irie wins 1321 chips from side pot #1 with a straight, four to eight.
Irie wins 4134 chips from the main pot with a straight, four to eight.
Atchydog finished in fourth place.
Atchydog has left the table.


This was the 4th one I played, and I found it ironic that Raptor's famous AJ thread could have saved Atchydog his untimely demise.

It was doubly ironic that the player that beat me HU was named "holla."

respect is earned.

Ask Degen

No one I can think of on this board has worked harder for respect. He dug himself a big hole first and climbed out.

The best way to gain respect is to show respect.

People on this board offer free advice that ultimatly hinders their own advancement. Sometimes they get arrogant and downright rude. Most of the time it is in jest similar to a hazing.

You can embrace it or fight it.

ok i'll take the ire bet. for 25$ .. hows the transaction gonna work?

Well, you're late to the party since Irie already posted results for his first 10 SnGs (20%ITM not so hot). But, since I like a good gamboooool on the darkhorse, let's do it. For $25 I trust that you'll square up and I am comfortable not using a third party (also for $25 you'll have to trust that I'm reliable as I'm not in for messing around with finding an escrow). As far as actually transfering the $$, let's use Neteller at the conclusion of the Irie quest.

[/ QUOTE ]

Alright Irieguy- you're my horse. Please waste a fantasy heater on these $5's to make me a questionably collectible $25 big ones.

P.S.
I'll take the 10:1 action for $50 on TOW paying if you can pull this out.
