No kidding? I played a $2 FR Turbo sitngo the other day: Played one pot, then waited until it got heads up and then won the whole thing in a few hands. Usually I get very annoyed though since it's not really poker they're playing over there... Not much better at $5 either. At which level do the players compare to NL50 cash?

I think I may cash out all but $250 once more and start over at NL10. I really don't need the [censored] stress that is losing $600 in one session at NL100. WTF...

An entire weeks profit at NL50 and 100 down the drain in one tilt session where idiots call off their stacks on the turn with flushdraws and hit for $400.

lol when i first read this i thought it said 60 bucks for sum reason. lol. i was like baahahah dude quit poker. lol.

but yea this is prolly a good idea. playin more hands will help and u will also get more used to losing and winning more money at a time as u play more. if it is stressin u out deff dont do it. not worth it imo. poker is suposed to b a way to better our lives, whether it is finicially or for the enjoyment, or w/e and if u r losin tha u should change sumtin asap. it is so worth it

I have around 200K hands lifetime of 6max ranging from NL10 to NL200 and am pretty used to winning/losing. The thing is I am not degen enough to not care about $600. It is a lot of money to me and I tilt like hell when these monkeys hit.

I have pondered this before and I really should not move up above NL50 ever. It is better for me to cash out winnings and keep grinding NL25/NL50 and take some MTT shots etc.

(I cashed out all but 700 and am grinding NL25 for the rest of the month. I need to buy some stuff to make me feel better [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] )

LOL ... you really are clueless aren't you ... [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]


With regards to game, sngs dont compare to 50NL at any stake, but with regards to hourly rate etc ... I'd say somewhere around the 22-33$ range.

Hmm you mean you can't compare cash/SNG players? Things like positional awareness, hand reading and value betting?

BTW what's the recommended BR for a SNG player?

Well all the above exist in sngs, but are of secondary value compared to playing correct push/fold strategy once effective stacks fall under 10xBB.

Hand reading in sngs consist of estimating pushing and calling ranges in that stage.

This is rooted in the shallow stacks and flat pricestructure especially the latter.

With regards to rolls in sngs, min is 50BI ... usually the rule of thumb is 100BI
