I work in Theatre and we had a New Year's Eve event last night which meant that I was at work from 10am to 12:30am. Yes after Midnight. All I kept thinking yesterday was about the fish I was missing out on.

I found the entire month of December to be fishy, either that or I just coincidentally found some new level to my game that I didn't have before. m profits were nearly 50% more than my best previous month and have now moved from $20/2s to $30/3s.

As soon as the Rose Bowl is over I'm going to get out the Tartar sauce.

What kind of bankroll did you start with?

3K

smellynuts · #24 01-02-2005, 05:34 PM

3K in total? like 750 each?

Exactly.

Why did you post lower results than "payout"?

Interested to see if you had any interesting streaks?

I was the "observer"...Whole day was a blast....Morning session (85 sng's) was astounding. 43 ITM's...Over 60% ROI.
Whole disscussion during lunch was "Do we escalate, or stay at $33's...Certainly due for a regression to mean"..decided to stay at $33's....Played all games as groups of 6,7, or 8 tables...worst "mini-session" was (-)vig..best was 5 ITM's outa 6 games....Results probably way over EV, but great day

I didn't include our brief 7-table $55 session that netted us an additional few hundred dollars.

Irie,

Congrats on the big day! I think I was on 4 of your tables and you were ITM 3/4. I have to rebut your theory that it wasn't possible to lose over the course of the day though. I was 2/5/3/8 in 30 33's on the Eve for -$100. It was very painful to say the least. I think the biggest factor for my losing was that I'm used to playing the 55's (15.3% ROI in 704 55's) and I didn't adjust well to the lower starting chips. I realized after going 1/0/1 in the first 12 that you can't mix it up early. I really think there is such a huge difference in bubble play between the two levels that you simply have no reason to get involved in hands the first 3 levels in the $33's.

I'm very curious what you and McPherzen's long term ROI is for both the 33's and 55's? I'm beginning to think it may be +EV to play the 33's over the 55's.
