Week-long prop bet

[registrar]

In my brief experience and limited sample, $15 Horse turbos are just incredibly easy. This appears to be for two reasons:

1. No one can play Horse.
2. No one understands how a limit structure affects STT strategy.

[Nate.]

Been a while since I felt this much pressure playing for $20; I'm heads-up in a (non-turbo) 45-man SNG.

Yikes. Good thing I'm running well generally at the moment (after a hilarious $15 downswing at $.05/$.10 NL).

UPDATE: 2nd. No complaints.

***END OF DAY 4 UPDATE***

Account balance: $184.37

Good results today, but maaaaaan, I almost blew it wide open. I was in the money in a Razz tournament, and bigstacked in several multitable $5 SNGs, but blew out in all but one. Fatigue, maybe?

Summary:

Tournaments -- Slightly down.
Micro-stakes NLHE -- Significantly down.
Heads-up SNGs -- 13-2 in the morning, something like 13-4 overall. Yesssss.
Single-table SNGs -- Up a little, maybe? Maybe more?
Multitable SNGs -- Up significantly.

Chat of the day comes from an obeserver of one of my $6.50 HU SNGs. Note that this guy is just a random dude who hadn't played against me or anything.

This thread can't be on Page 7 anymore. Fascinated by Nate's journey. GL.

Update please.

[Logun]

yah I'm dying for an update here....

[Ontario_Tory]

Nate - are you going to add any x/180's to your rotation? Or stick with the smaller SnG's?

[Bakedd]

God this just keeps getting better and better

[Nate.]

All --

Thanks for the interest. I had a 4.5-hour, +$6 session in the early morning. Then Stars had a server restart and flat shut down for a few minutes after, and I took the opportunity to enjoy some coffee and finish Pride and Prejudice, which was awesome.

Then I ran bad, like -10 buyins at $5 SNGs as well as other assorted losses, but after winning a couple multitable SNGs:

I'm at $173 + roughly $50 in current equity.

I'm likely to play a few 4/180s, particularly if my preferred SNGs are slow filling up in a certain time period / I bust from a few / I need to mix things up for psychological reasons.

--Nate

EDIT TO ADD: The 20/180s are unlikely to be an efficient use of $20 at any point (unless I become highly risk-loving).

[Nate.]

***DAY 5 UPDATE***

Day 5 doesn't end for another three hours, but I'm about to get some food, and besides, I just had a breakthrough. Let's hear it for multitable SNGs; I went on a big rush and...

Account Balance: $455.87

Game Results:

45-man NLHE SNGs -- +$300 or so
$3 Razz SNGs -- $12ish (100%ish ROI)
HU PLO8, other stuff -- -$45 or so
