this extrapolates to something like 300k a year if you did this in three months

pushing half a mill/annum if this is sustainable and you did it in 2 months

is anyone else astounded?

snaps!

the winrate, though incredible, doesn't astound me because my friend has an equal one over the past few months.

What astounds me is where all this money possibly comes from. There are a lot of us doing so well. . .it's hard to imagine.

The UB 10/25 games are better than the Party 10/20 games IMO. Party 10/20 is full of nut peddlers, and they don't have 6 max, making it way too boring for me to consider grinding at.

hek,

i'm in an almost identical situation as you. i really can't imagine one game being substantially easier than another at these levels. what i'm thinking about doing is keeping money on party, stars, full tilt, and ub and try to work harder on my game selection. this will definitely mean more time sweating instead of playing, but it should increase your winrate by quite a bit once you get the hang of it. i bet this will improve your game as well.

Can you do me a favor (and anyone else who wants to pipe in): Explain your process of game selection, especially across multiple sites. I need help with that.

Here's what I do: throw my name on the wait list for all NL1k 6max tables on party starting with highest pot avg first. Then, as I get seats reserved for me sit down only if there are NOT 2 or more good regulars in the game. Pretty sick formula I got huh?

This is exactly what I do. If I recognize some decent regulars and I have bad position, I find a new table. Otherwise I just go with it.
