So ... I lied

Permanent Linkby TheSalche on Tue Nov 07, 2006 4:28 am GMT

I recently made a post in advanced theory saying that I'm quitting poker ... HAH! You guys should know me better than that.

I started off by playing some $6.50 turbos with a $200ish bankroll. Over my first 50 -70 tournaments from August, I had quite an astounding -15% ROI (negative). This obviously upset me, because I feel like low-limit SnGs are easily beatable and its something that I have almost always had constant success with.

So over the last 70 tournaments I have managed to get that ROI back down again (BR to about $115) and then up to -9% now. I still have bubble issues, and once ITM I've been finishing 3rd far too often. However, if I keep going at my current pace I should be able to sustain a 15% ROI or so. Let's hope this works.

Oh and this month I'm trying for the SilverStar for the 3rd month in a row ... the new points system concerning low-limit games is definetly boosting my points. I need to earn ~50 points a day and I'm at 415 for the month, so I'm 2 days ahead of schedule right now, and I have all thanksgiving break to bring back any deficits.
